Getting Caught Sneaking Out
01:00:02 Share

This is a classic example of F around and find out. What do you guys have to do to sneak out? Dude, I am sweating. We'll for sure have us on dirt bikes driving in your CJ occasionally in the middle. And I just scream. That's just nightmares. Vikings won today. So we're good. One in three, baby.

Welcome back to 101.5 C-Boys TV Radio. You're listening in. We got Micah Salmon over here. Benjamin Roth. Someone intro it. That was my intro. Did you not like my intro? I didn't like it. Welcome back to 101.5 The Sandman. I just felt like I was listening to FM radio. People in their car right now are like, what the hell? Before we continue on with the radio show, we got to do 55 minutes of ads.

I love that. You'd love that, wouldn't you, Ryan? I would do. Yeah. You ever listen to the fucking radio? It's all ads. You guys should be thanking yourselves that you only get a few minutes. That's true. I agree. We could take the approach like some of the FM stations, they do all their ads in like their... All the ads...

that they have to do in an hour in like, you know, 15 minutes. You ever have to drive to work like during that time and it's just solid. Yeah. You guys ever watched a football game and realize that the majority of the football game is, is commercial break. Yeah. Hold on. They dropped the football. Let's go to a commercial break. Yeah. Why not? I just was at the gas station filling up. Oh, two funny things. I'm in the mini truck. Ken's dad comes up to me and just goes, why are you driving around this piece of shit? I'm like, I'm like,

Actually? Yeah. You tell him it's not? And I wasn't like. Did you say this is my vehicle? Yeah, I wasn't like offended, but I go, I like driving it. You should have just been like, I don't get paid as much as your son. He goes, oh, shit. So that was good. And then I look up, couple of Harley riders driving by. Like, these are like full-blown, you know, nice paint, full-blown bagged Harley, whatever. Speakers. Everything, guy's got leather on. Good. Guess what he's jamming to? Like, yeah, speakers playing out loud. Oh.

101.5 T-Boys TV radio. He's already got the apple bottom jeans, boots with the fur. He's going through Cormorant. But it's just like, you know, the song did not match the homie. That's embarrassing. No, he was owning it. Really? Yeah, smile on it. I don't think I could ever do that, man. Even if it was a great song, it's just that's a little much. So that's kind of what I was like getting at too was like, yeah, when you're playing like

uh, ACDC. It's like, I don't know. I think it's cool. They put some loud speakers on those Harleys, but dude, yeah, you can't really get away with listening to much else than like hard rock. Bro. I was on my way to the shop the other morning too. And there was a guy, we were stopped at a red light. And the guy right in front of me was on a big bagger, a big speakers. It was,

Which is weird. You don't really see somebody riding a Harley at like 7.30 in the morning. I was on my way. You weren't coming to work at 7.30. I was coming here to edit. He's going home. Anyway, this guy's listening to music and he started listening to a song and then change it. Start listening to a song and change it. And it's like somebody just sitting in their car like flipping through. Yeah. The shuffle. You can hear it.

hear this but like he was yeah yeah every single song and he probably went through like 15 songs just like trying to find the right one i can't remember what he landed on but it was like maybe like ed sheeran and then he ripped off and i was like what a strange song to land on the two events that's like the the tip to to when you're djing just in front of anyone or playing music where anyone else can hear it and you start you're about five songs deep and you're not finding anything just go ahead and press pause you know press pause then people don't have to go and

Oh, yeah. No, I feel like you got to at least add to cue when you're DJing. Yeah, if you're a DJ and you got to add to cue. But I'm saying even in the car, even if you're just playing music in the car and you're running into like 10 songs that are just whack, go ahead and just press pause, pick a song, reset. Reset. Just collect yourself. That's like how my brother was. I used to get a ride with Sam into school every day when I was a kid.

And I swear I've never listened to a single song through. Oh, really? ADHD type of like. Oh, dude. Just like even if it's a good song that I know he likes or like a band that he likes halfway through change the song. Interesting. It just always drove me nuts. You guys ever listen to new music Friday? Oh, like on Spotify or Apple Music. Yeah. You ever like roll through that place? No, it's never good. It is awful. It's gone downhill lately. Lately it's been terrible. Alex and I were just talking about that.

a couple days ago it's like dude there's no good music out right now maybe when people put out like tv shows or movies or youtube videos like maybe they know they're like and this isn't my best work but it'll you know it'll get us through the next season type of deal right

What the – some music is so bad, and it's on New Music Friday. I can't believe they even thought to release this. I think it's just limited choices. For me, it's like – so I see the artists. So I'm checking out New Music Friday. I see the artists. They have the artists line, you know, new from Doja Cat, new from whatever. So I'm like, okay, sweet. It's going to be good. But it seems like they're just taking all of the top artists and then just giving you whatever they're making. But that doesn't necessarily mean it's good. Right. Right.

these female rappers are taking over. Like, I'll go to Rap Caviar on Spotify or Get Turned or whatever type of rap, but it's all kind of the same songs. Half of them, female rappers, and they're great, but I just can't get down with what they're saying because they're just talking about their pussy, basically, the whole time. Their wet pussy. And, like, I'm not even kidding you. Like, that's literally, like...

The type of shit they're saying. And I'm just riding in the car. I'm like, what am I fucking? And they're like talking about like, you know, just. Yeah. Guys are not going to be able to handle them and stuff. I'm like, I can't get down to this. This ain't hyping me up. There's no way you. Yeah. But it's just crazy how it's changed a little bit. Like since. So like. But since Rihanna to like now. So Rihanna is about the same thing kind of.

uh it makes different stuff but now it's just yeah now it's just like to the point i don't know man i think honestly it was bound to happen though now it's like coming around it's like now the girls kind of have that aggressive type of rap that the men used to listen or are used to listening to because yeah what you're saying is talking about getting women you can't hate on it you just can't listen to it you know you can't hate on it yeah no you can't you can't no i'm not hating on it i'm just saying

it's tough for me to get down to. So when I'm trying to find some new music and I'm flipping through all these songs of these girls,

singing about this stuff. Yeah, so... It's a skip. I guess... It's a skip. Yeah, when you're listening to, like, Next on, like, hip-hop radio or, like, Top Hip-Hop or whatever. Dude, there's a lot of them. They're taking over. They're killing it. There's no denying that. What I don't fully understand is when you do listen to the radio and they're taking songs, like, when every single word of the song is just beeped out. Wow.

And that's been a thing forever. A lot of bad problem. That's true. Problem. That was on the radio, bro. I kind of have a funny story about that, actually. So over at the farm, we're having lights installed. Oh, that's what we're calling the new shop, by the way. The new shop. The farm. Anyway, so we're getting new lighting installed just because it's so dark in there. And Brian's been over there working on a secret project for the last three years.

What the...

What's the deal with that Brian guy? I go, what do you mean? He's like really quiet. And like, I was just surprised by his music taste. And I go, oh yeah, he's a big hip hop guy because I think he just goes on serious and lets it run. But he's listening to Pandora and he's listened to so many full rap songs soon, like through that. I guess when Simon walked in, it was,

Cardi B, WAP. And Brian was just listening to it. And Simon was like, what? He didn't really know what to do and he just listened to it full through and he was just surprised. And then it moved on to some other real action. But in his defense, I had that thought but a little smaller multiple times. Week in, week out when he first started with us, I was like, man, the dude listens to anything. He loves hip hop, man. But especially hip hop. I mean, just anything. And then I hear a song, I go,

Brian's listening to this. And then it would happen again. Yeah. And go, he's listening to this. Okay. Pretty much any artist with Lil in front of it. He's got good shop beats, you know? Yeah, he does. Wherever he's walking, wherever he's working, it's just a nice, like, No, it is all kinds of music, but it was just funny to me because he was like, yeah, like,

was kind of taken off guard. I walked in and he was listening to Cardi B. And it's also, yeah, like all that rap music going on doesn't, you know, doesn't bop his head maybe even once. No, I don't think he's even really listening to it. I think he's just working on the project. Yeah, he's focusing on that wrench, man. Background music. Wrenching. Ken, I have some videos on your laptop. Put them nice, neatly in a folder in the middle. So you can't find them. Get bullied by Mike. What else are you doing on your laptop? I'm being nice to Ken in this podcast. That was it.

Okay, that's the wrong folder. That's Mike's social security number. You know what? Surprise me. You got to give him clear instructions. Just top one. Mike, you just had to throw that in, didn't you? Although, when I was operating your computer today, do you have your mouse sensitivity turned up higher? Yeah, way up there. Yeah, that's why it's so fucking hard to operate. For what I do every day, it's super nice. He doesn't have to move his finger much. He's using paint. He's just going like this.

Yeah, he doesn't even have to move it. He just angles his finger. It's like the old IBM. The track ball in the middle that was always so intense you could never. I always thought those were lit.

Okay, here we go. This is a classic example of F around and find out. Have you guys heard about this? Oh, yeah. I saw this in the news, but I didn't really want to dig in too deep as being kind of a YouTube prankster. Yeah. It felt a little dark. Something already tells me whatever this guy's doing that was shot was

will never be anything close to what we're doing. Honestly, it wasn't as bad as I thought. I've seen worse. It was unjustified? Yeah, I definitely don't think he should have gotten shot. It was unjustified capping? Unjustified caps were popped. We do want to warn you that viewers might find this video disturbing. What? What's that? No. No touch, though, to the prank. Not at all. Stop.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Yeah, that's unjustified still. Whoa. He just shot him in the middle of a mole. Whoa. Whoa. Yeah, he's so fast too. But I feel like you've got to kind of pick your... He's okay. Okay. Okay.

That was the lamest fucking prank. What was he doing? He was just harassing that guy. That's all he was doing. It's not even a good prank. Just pops him, dude. Cameraman got it, too. Gotta give him credit. Cook, for his part, says he plans to continue making his YouTube prank videos. He gives YouTubers a bad rep. Yeah, that's tough.

Definitely don't think of me. He should have gotten shot. I don't know what the prank was, but it didn't really look like there was that much finesse. Or maybe it was that funny. There was no finesse at all in that. He was just shoving the phone in the guy's ear, and then the guy pushed it down, and he did it again, and then he pushed it down, I think, one more time, and he did it again. He shouldn't have shot him, but he should have punched him in the nose. Yeah, there is... Or even... So I'm just wondering, like, as a guy with a concealed carry...

I know it's like you're in a mall. You can't just pull it out, but it's like, what if you pulled it out and been like, dude, don't mess with me. I think that guy might have something wrong with him. Yeah, I know. I feel like you got to pick who you're pranking because if you prank really whack looking dudes like that guy that looked like it was his first time out of the house in a couple years...

Yeah. You might get shot. Straight up, that was the worst prank I've ever seen. That was the worst prank I've ever seen. Do you think they, like, high-fived and stuff like that after? He's like, fuck yeah, dude, we got a banger. That was a lot better than anything they would have gotten, I'll tell you that. So that's actually... Got shot. That was what I was going to say, is like, so had he not gotten shot, had this not get on the news, like...

We ain't never heard of his content, so... I don't know if this is actually his username, but if it's thisismyusername, that is... He has a shitty username, too, even. I think it's, like, Tana Cole or something like that. Look it up. Use your computer and look up who it was and what happened to him. You know on Xbox and PS4 when you had, like, a name with no numbers and no underscores? You guys still remember your Xbox gamer tag? My first one was Unwary Meteor.

It was one of the first, like, you know when you just, like, you couldn't think of a name, so you did a random one? I just wanted to get to playing. Unware Meteor popped up, took it, and yeah, I changed it probably two years later. Nice. Classified goons. How many subscribers does he have? I didn't get that far on it. He has 57K. Okay. I wonder if he's gone up recently. 39 videos detained at the airport four weeks ago.

hasn't posted in a while i got shot two months ago 242k man that's one of his highest viewed videos that's tough getting shot for 240 000 views angry guy charges cameraman i think it's just more so you know it's kind of wild obviously if it's entertaining it is and if it isn't it isn't but uh you got people like out there making fake like uh neighbor stole my dirt bike because he was so mad and then they they those are like the older era of youtube but they garnish like

10 million views or more and then that one's like fully legit got shot during his YouTube career. Yeah. And pulls less than... Deliberately filming in people's faces prank. Yeah. I already don't like it. I already don't like it. Like it's just no wonder you're obviously you're purposely trying to piss people off and that's the video is like when they get mad. I just don't think that's funny. Rusty Clark, an Army and Air Force veteran, needed treatment at a VA hospital.

Meet his wife, Juanita. We live above Borgentown, West Virginia. It would take us about seven hours to get here. And I was prepared to sleep on the hospital floor beside of Mr. Clark. But the Fisher House opened up that door. We had a lovely suite to stay in. We had food to eat. We didn't have to worry about that because the Fisher House, the foundation, Mr. and Mrs. Fisher took care of all that years ago, following their dream to make our reality that we were together and we could

be treated here. It's a great blessing. Meet Rusty. I was in the Army Guard and then I went into the Air Force and then I met Juanita. Keeping families together when they need it most. For active duty military wounded and veterans sick or injured, Fisher Houses make a huge difference. Learn more at fisherhouse.org. That's fisherhouse.org. Because of family's love. It's good medicine.

Man. Okay, so like seven years ago, it was like right when we started making videos. Yeah, we told this story. And there was some couple from the town that we were going to school. Not far from us. Yeah. The guy was holding like a big thick book and he had his girlfriend shoot him. Phone book. Was it a phone book? Yeah, it was a phone book. It was a phone book. The girlfriend shot him. With like a...

Desert Eagle? 50 Cal. Yeah, or a Desert Eagle. Sorry, whatever that caliber is. That was a Desert Eagle. And he died. Obviously. They did it for a YouTube video, yeah. And then we were getting contacted, like, as a YouTuber, like, what do you guys think of this? And we're like, uh, we think it's a...

A terrible idea. What is that even supposed to mean? I remember the news like dragged us for it. They were like, YouTubers doing anything for views. And then it was like us jumping the road or something like that or just our daily shenanigans. Yeah, we're like, what happened?

You can't even compare us to someone like that. That's desperate when you're shooting a phone book. But it's like, so it's one of those things, like we like to do full send things, and I'm not talking anything about that. But you know how then we come up with our huge idea. It gets bigger. It gets smaller. But for that one, there's not a whole lot of factors. Phone book, gun, shoot. You could have maybe tested.

Could have maybe not used the Desert Eagle. Could have maybe not used the Desert Eagle. Yeah, maybe just set it there. Yeah, they only had one phone book. They're like, we only got one take at this. Sad situation. It is. Make too much like it. I don't know, though. I mean, there's like a couple people in the area that have, you know, tried to make YouTube videos as well.

and like prank style videos very similar to that where they're extremely distasteful and like disrespectful like blatantly disrespectful and like involving cops and like trying to do like certain things like that where then we always catch heat because of other YouTubers in the area like doing things that are you know

Yeah. Pretty disrespectful. Gives the job a bad name. Yeah. Not saying that, you know, we're perfectly squeaky clean and don't do stupid shit too. Yeah. But it's just like, it's always like, damn man, it's always tough. Especially with like the golfing shit too. Like, Oh yeah. One of the last, uh, reckless golfing videos, like we caught a bit of heat because other people were apparently like,

doing it i don't they never even said like reckless golfing they were just saying you know people are getting wild on the golf courses in the area one of our neighboring courses carts got totaled yeah it was like a couple months after the video we were like bro like yeah it was a probably a bachelor party we're like we're not the first people to go out on a golf course and like we were probably the first people to do it sober though yeah seriously yeah but whatever yeah i don't know

Ken, pop up that video that I sent you. Man, this is tough. Oh, yeah. This is so tough. I'm like, this is awesome. I want to do this. I love how he just picks her right up. How bad is that? Dude, the... That's a vibe kill. There was a couple angles of it.

and it was this angle that i noticed he was riding a harley how do you do it had to rev that thing up and drop the clutch what was his plan either way like it's not like you can just like very subtly wheelie a harley in a small confined area and then put it back down i would have thought the tire would have spun out me too i'm sure that's probably what he thought and i don't think he took into account that there with a passenger there was more weight on the back so you're

I don't know if you get that point. Totally the passenger. Otherwise, it would have just spun. We blame the passenger for the guy wheeling over backwards. I don't think in that angle you can see it very clearly, but the gal obviously gets absolutely bodied, and then the

the guy is like stands up and and like tries to like spin her around and do like a like a dance move afterwards to save it yeah to save it and the woman's like dude fuck out of here you trying to like there's no coming back from that like actually how do you come back from that take a seat and say i'm sorry to the crowd and i'm especially sorry to the girl that i just bodied

Especially because it's likely that it was like one of the bride's friends and he was one of the groom's friends. Yeah, it's not like they were like boyfriend and girlfriend and they're like, they can have a fight about it later. She was just some random lady that had to get on the back with Jimmy. Dude, that's always a tough, tough spot. Pretty much every wedding I've ever been in or gone to where they do like the bridal party coming in and they have to do like a dance or something like that. Very rarely is it like...

Show-stoppingly good. I cringe at the idea of when that day comes. Do you have to do it? I don't know if I would do it to you guys. We did it with Justin. I don't even know what I did when I walked in. I just blacked out. I got nervous. There was like 50 people looking at me.

And it's the worst part is everyone. I mean, at least at Justin's wedding, everyone chooses like the whitest dance moves ever. Yeah. Yeah. Or like shotgunning a beer. So cringe though every time. We're going to, this is what I remember doing. Should we go back to back, like spin around and then put up like pistols? Yeah. Classic. Yeah. A classic. But I had a pretty good one though. Last wedding I was in my, uh, my friend Sam was a farmer and

And so I put on like overalls and got like pushed in on a toy tractor. Oh, that's good. So I literally didn't have to do anything besides for just sit on this toy tractor. And then like the gal like pushed me in and I got to kind of like roll pretty low. So like, you know, everyone's sitting at their tables. I'm just looking at her. Everyone was

just looking at her and I yeah they could probably just see like the top of my head just going by yeah that's pretty good but it took prior planning exactly that's the way to do it planning any of them would be good next time I'll bring a Harley yeah

So I can get in quick, get to the spot. No, I love that. Based on that video, I saw the first dirt biker go in. I could see the other bikers coming in. I go, I love the idea. I would love to do that. Probably won't. Then I saw the guy loop out. Mike's wedding will for sure have us on dirt bikes driving in. Yeah, as long as you guys are down. What would be a pretty solid entrance that wouldn't be cringy and you're kind of not setting people up for failure? Skydiving. Skydiving.

That'd be pretty sick. Yeah, that'd be good. Or like run in and throw like a bunch of like fake $100 stacks. Or what if the first person going in, you hit them with a flash grenade and then everyone else runs in and then once everyone is like, oh, what the heck? All the smoke clears. Everyone's sitting at the front. You want a flash bang or a smoke grenade? Both. Hit them with a double whammy. By the time they come to, wedding's over.

Perfect. Everyone get on the bus. So I know you guys don't want to go back to college, but there is a degree. Well, we can't. We're literally banned from going back to college. That's technically not true. I mean, how many colleges are there? Apply somewhere else. That's true. There is a university that is officially offering a full degree. No. What a joke. Yes, to become an influencer.

And I can tell you already money off all these people. Yeah. This is to me like a degree where it's kind of like a lottery. Obviously, the work you put in and your creativity are a massive part of it. But when you go to school to be a doctor, you most and you finish the program, you will become a doctor somewhere.

That's a good point. And it is kind of like graphic design or anything in the arts. Like you could do jack shit with your graphic design degree or you could go work for like Nike. Yeah. You know, it is kind of a lottery. And this is like, I'm not saying this is a full failure, but what a joke. You're either going to be one or you're not. You can't go to school for it. I feel like that's the new communications degree or like university studies degree. Like you should blend this in with like a market. Yeah. Yeah. Cause then you can just go run the Facebook page for like,

And then until you're... That's kind of how it is. Until you're ready, you can then freelance. That's essentially what being an influencer is. It's like a freelance marketer. I mean, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I guess so. That's funny. That is a good point. I hate the word influencer. Me too. Same. Same. I do not want to be associated with that. Should we come up with a new one? I go by podcaster now. That's pretty respectable until they listen to the podcast. I never liked the word podcast. I think it's weird. Kind of just gives me...

It gives me an icky feeling. What a strange thing to say on a podcast. Really? Right? I do remember. The word. I had an iPod Nano, so you couldn't have TV shows or whatever on it. But I remember it had podcasts, and I remember downloading something because I was trying to get a...

like family guy or simpsons and and i looked it up and i ended up downloading a podcast i had something to do with it i'm like oh my god like i think i worked i can watch you now i click it it was just them talking about oh it's just the audio and i was like what the heck is this why would anyone want to listen to this exactly and that was like years ago i mean that would have been like 2007 yeah podcasts have been a thing for a very long time it's just now recently

So popular. I feel like life was more fun when you had to hack your phone to make it do the things you wanted to do. Jailbreak? Yeah, jailbreaking. Remember laying in bed at night when you're supposed to be sleeping? You would jailbreak your phone and brick it. I was obsessed with it. Mike, yeah, you used to jailbreak. You should jailbreak your phone right now, Mike. Do it. Live, on air. I don't think you can anymore. Is it illegal to jailbreak your phone? I think it always was. No, it's not illegal.

Just boards the warranty. It's like putting exhaust on your car. Ben jailbreaks his phone, the cops show up. Jailbreaking was the most simple, and then you can root your Android phone. I did that. And then you can, I think the same term, root your PSP. I did that. How long did these devices last? Why can't I leave things normal? I actually never bricked any of them. I bricked one. The one that I did, I was able to fix. But it's like, dude, that definitely goes to...

on the same trajectory as me not being able to leave anything stock. I did jailbreak my phones too. Like I remember I had my iPhone 4 jailbroken and then whatever I had after that. But it always ruined your battery. So I would like wait a year before I do it. You have all this stuff running in it. Yeah, yeah.

He would just kind of ruin it, but you'd have like infinity scroll or you could do like the Android unlock. Yeah. My favorite thing though was the- Download music for free was the best. That was the best. It's just weird that they couldn't do it in phones because like in snowmobiles and cars, I get it, like they have to put the exhaust on and then as soon as you get the sled, you take the exhaust off and put a good one on and be like, yeah, this is lighter. It gives me more power. Why wouldn't this just be on from the factory, at least close? Well, there's rules, I guess. Well, I'm sure it's for like-

Sorry, I blacked out. It's because like CJ said, when your phone battery would get toasted with it, it's probably because they just cranked everything up. I remember my Android had a feature and it was called like pocket warmer or something like that. And it would just like put everything into overdrive and your phone would just get really hot. So whenever it was cold, like, you know, like before I'm going to go walk to my mom's car in middle school and

Like fire that thing up. Get it all hot. Walk to my car. Keep my hands warm. It sounds extremely... It sounds super ill-advised. It sounds like...

Your Raptor can actually power an entire concert event. It just has to run at red light. Yeah, it was maybe not the best idea. Simpler times for technology, man. Ryan and Ken were always in tune with the latest tech of just phones. Absolutely. Well, Ken still is. I don't know when the last time I've seen that dude not have a brand new iPhone. That's what I'm wondering. Ken, do you have a 15 on order? No.

I got it last week. Nice. You already have it? You already have it? You didn't even mention it to us. What? All right, bro. So I'm on top of it. I ordered it the day they come out. I know there's other things I could have done to get it faster, but mine doesn't come for another month at least. Because Ken is one of their most valued customers. I thought I didn't order it because it said the order failed or something. God, could you imagine?

And then I got another email like two days later that it did go through. Flash it to the camera. Flash it to the camera. Take it off. No case. No case. Flash it. Let's see that thing naked. Wait, when did you unbox that? I swear you just had your 14 like a day ago. Whoa. Holy shit. It's an iPhone. It's an iPhone.

Ken, you should do like a Marcus Brownlee review on it. I could see you doing that. Yeah, we could put it in this Thursday's video. Ken's tech reviews. Oh my God, Ken's tech reviews. That would be so... It's an iPhone. It'd be so good. That's it. Then it's like, there's a big intro and then it just hits an outro. Like screens come in. Tech, tech.

Ken's Tech Reviews. It's a different color. It seems like that's the only difference. I've been waiting for the time that Apple has their big release of an iPhone and there's a projector on it.

Like that goes up on the wall and is like, like so groundbreaking and they make it a new shape. Like I envisioned them making it like the pear shape back in like an iCarly days and like, I would hate that. Yeah. It would suck, but it would just be nice to like, just have something different. Yeah. You know? And then you'd have the purest, like Ken coming out and being like, I don't like the way that it feels in my head, but it's brand new.

For me, it's just like I just want all the memory and a good camera. Do they still make BlackBerrys? I don't think so. Nor should they. Those went bankrupt a while ago. Ken, you should get a BlackBerry. That'd be a flex. Did you ever have one, Ken? BlackBerry? No, never did. I had a BlackBerry. Really? It was a hand-me-down from my dad, and...

It felt as cool as the day I got my first pair of Etnies. They do still have them. They do. Yeah, I felt like a cool guy with a Blackberry. And it wasn't even... Because you could text without having to double tap the letters. And I'm like, dude, I had a stylus in there too. And I'm like, I can go on the internet. It was not enjoyable. It was like having to jump through hoops to...

to go on the internet it was like going on the internet on the psp it was just like that yeah they say it's a secure it's a secure phone oh so they're coming with a different approach so that was why they're like it sucks but it's secure interesting yeah someone should buy one and then just have it my backup phone where everyone that i don't know there you go yeah if you get a business phone

Making a blackberry. We have a video coming out on Thursday. I think it's potentially our most viral video that we've ever made. And I'm very excited for you guys to see it. Oh, my God. Honestly, I'll just tell you. We hired 100 people to mow our lawn, and it worked fantastic. It was super efficient. It was so efficient. Fun from start to finish. Just a bunch of people with the same passion. It was a beautiful sight. It was a beautiful sight. I drove by the farm, and I...

I smiled again just looking at how good the yard looked. It looks so good. That's the other thing. It's not a hack job. You can't replicate 100 talented people. You couldn't have done that with a pull-behind full-size tractor in the time that we did it with 100 John Deere. Just 10 minutes to mow 10 acres. It's pretty good.

My favorite thing is... I'm not 100% sure, but I think it's pretty good. It was satisfying. It was like one of those ASMR things where they cut everything perfect. Almost video game-esque, too. It was beautiful. Yeah, that was electric. We were just laughing, though, because we went from one shop to the other, and we were like, man, the neighbors got to just be like, what the fuck? What is going on?

I'm sure we would have just stopped at some random person's house and done their yard in one second. Yeah, no one would even have one. It would have literally just been everyone get in position and turn it on. All right, turn it off. Let's go. Large handful of those guys that were there on Saturday go.

Got to make this an annual thing, man. Because they were just stoked. Yeah, we need to have them come back every two weeks. I had a blast too, honestly. No, bro, that's what CJ was saying. Like, okay, we have them come back. We're like, do it again. And then pretty soon, like, it's just a thing. Like, we're not even there. Yep, do the thing. Mold the field. Every month. Gave you the pointers. Now you're just going to do it on your own. Yep.

You guys see that New York is underwater? I did see that. I heard about it. How bad is that? Like, what do they mean by underwater? It looks bad. So I watched Casey Neistat's video, and the way he described it is the whole city was not like this. Not like the whole island of Manhattan is under bust deep water. But there was parts where it got out of hand.

They're just laughing. Yeah, I mean, this is the craziest part. You got to remember that half of New York City is underwater. The whole subway system. So is the whole subway system filled to the brim? No, so it didn't happen. What's that one movie? Day of Tomorrow? No. The Day After Tomorrow. The Day After Tomorrow. It didn't happen like that style where it filled up. That's what I was envisioning. That was like tsunami. What the water is dripping on right there, that's electricity. That's what moves the train. Classic. Classic.

But it looks pretty fucking chaotic. It basically didn't stop raining. Yeah, it rained for seven days straight in New York City. Oh, wow. Is what Casey Neistat said. Oh, wow. There is this really crazy video that's not, unfortunately, in this. It's of the walls in the subway.

are just like, it like split and it's just like geysering out of it. Pretty confident in a lot of vehicles capabilities and what they can do and driving through water is one of them. But I do remember, um, a similar, like, you know, streets flooded. I remember Jake, uh, was, he actually had his mom with him, but they were driving in his mom's outback and older one. And it,

you know, air, water in the intake. Like if it gets in the intake, it's up at the edge of the hood. It, it completely bricked the whole motor, you know, like water in, locked it up. Yeah. You can drive through water, but like just know where your intake is. Like these things don't have snorkels. Like if it goes in, you're just going to be stuck and you're going to have a blown up car and you're going to be stuck in the SEMA truck. That's what I've been saying.

Or the donk. The donk would have been fine. Oh, yeah. Where's the air filter? Oh, yeah. That's what I'm saying. With the tall tires. Oh. Unlike the Airpens Tesla. I think my truck will go through like 32 inches of water. That's pretty good. Stock. That truck shouldn't be going down the road, man.

You just don't know how to drive. That thing shouldn't be on the road without water. How do you think your truck handles, Ryan? I mean, I don't know. I think fine. That's what matters, right? Yeah, it is. Sorry. Sorry, Kerry. I'm sorry. Ain't no goddamn Lamborghini. Sorry, Adrian.

Just kidding. Can your Tesla go in deep water? What happens? They say it can go shortly, and then it's going to destroy all the electronics. How short are we talking? Like a couple minutes underwater? Like you shouldn't drive underwater. I thought we should test that theory and get an actual definitive answer for the people. Yeah, like it's going to destroy everything. Let's go out there right now and see how long you can do underwater. Why? It's all watertight.

Yeah, but like all the stuff that controls all the stuff that's watertight. Are we talking fully submerged? Are we talking like this New York flood? Like you drive through, like I saw videos where like people drove their Teslas through that and then it like just bricked it.

Like it's still turned on, but it wouldn't drive. What about when it rains? Well, then it's fine. It's not like submerged in water. You can drive anything when it's like just raining, but you submerge it in water and it's going to like, water's going to get into spots that it's not supposed to be. It would be really cool if you could just straight up drive those things like on the boat. It should be that way, dude. You can drive a boat on the water, but try flooding it. It's not going to work. Do you know they're actually making electric boats?

Boats now. I saw Natique now has a fully electric wakeboard boat. Really? That's pretty sick. How long does it go for? I don't know what that would look like. Just the charge. They sell it. It's like 300 grand for... That's pretty standard now for a decked out wakeboard boat. A normal gas boat, I think that boat starts at like 100 and something. Oh, damn. You're effectively doubling the price. Wow. That's pretty cool, though. I can't think of many...

downsides to it besides for obviously having to like charge it back up it's still been so interesting the whole like tab I got the electric lawnmower and everyone's like electric well you know I feel like they're good just a battery then

And then I'm like, yeah, yeah. And then I use it and it's super quiet. And I thought the battery was going to like not last that long, but I could probably like mow my lawn four times with one battery. Really? It blew me away. It just all comes down to just like how TVs have came down and cost. It all comes down to the battery.

the smaller more powerful faster they can make batteries and the faster they can charge dude if it gets better and better then not much bad to say about electron electric yeah electric i think it'd be cool to ride a electric snowmobile i know they make those they'd be sick when polaris comes out with one of those yeah i think the

What isn't electric right now that one day will be? What are they? Besides, I guess, trains and planes. Well, they make electric trains. They just don't do electric trains here. But the electric trains, those are powered. Those don't have batteries. Those are powered. They do both. Wow. Interesting. All right. I really don't know. Just tell me on that one. I don't know what. I saw a tweet that said,

Thank goodness they invented cars, because could you imagine waking up your horse at 3 a.m. to go to your chick's house or go to a girl's house? I've never thought about that. That's funny. MFers in, like, 1938. I think there was cars then. What did you guys have to do to sneak out? Be very quiet. Mike, you'd have quite the hike if you were sneaking out in the country. Yeah, where were you going? Dude, anywhere, bro. Were you walking or were you up in a car? That's what I mean. I did the typical...

car, put it car neutral, push the car as far and, you know, like as hard as I could, but as far as a way as I could then start it. Yeah. I, I did that a couple of times and then I got an exhaust. Uh, and it just bit me in the butt. Yeah. It's just loud. Man, you hate exhaust. That's what I should say. I still did that when I had an exhaust and then I remember being like, this is not quiet. Ken had that Tesla back in the day. You could come and go as you please, dude. Just besides for the reverse. Yeah.

Except for Ken's parents didn't care. He could leave whenever he wanted anyways. Well, Ken's always been a full grown man. You know, that's the nice part about it. Even as a boy. Yeah. An adult. And honestly, relatively responsible too. You know, it's like, what are you going to go do? Well, I don't know. So how do you do something? How did you sneak out, Ben? Like what was your process? Push it a couple of times. And then I got an exhaust, which made it harder. One time I took my dad's bike.

Oh, that's a good one. Yeah. Bicycle. And came back and he was like awake, which was tough because then I had to like sneak his bike back in. Wait, I remember you saying that. Yeah. Like a pedal bike. Gosh, I don't think I ever got caught sneaking out though. Really? I just remember having the one time where like, this is actually why overall in my life, I dislike light sleepers because both my parents were light sleepers. You know, I am not like, I have nothing truly against you as a person. I'm just like,

I just don't like you. Dude, just come on. Sleep a little harder. But yeah, both my parents were light sleepers. I just remember one time he was just standing and he's a tall guy standing in the kitchen towering over silent. And I'm like, I'm serious. I'm like not making, yeah, very quiet, like walking through the kitchen like this. And he's just standing there watching me look like an idiot. And then he just goes, what are you doing? And I'm like, ah! I'm caught.

I'm caught. I'm in trouble. How big a trouble were you in? You know, the typical. I was just grounded for a week. Did he yell at you then or did he make you go back to bed and then speak with you later? I would say it was like a mutual, like, I knew. Yeah, you were like, I fucked up. Yeah, it was mutual. What were you doing? I just did not like...

to come home when they asked me to. Oh, so you were just come home late. Yeah, it was always... Oh, you didn't have to wake them up when you got home? Oh, that was the worst, dude. No, yeah, it's tough, dude. It's like, rarely did they not let me go somewhere or like rarely did I ever really have to sneak out or maybe dared. But yeah, it was always like, be home at one. That's reasonable. All right, sweet. I'll be home at 4 a.m. Like, you've just hated authority. 4 a.m.?

Your entire life, haven't you? I think I've just hated time frame. Yeah, sure. Scheduling. Scheduling, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I always had to wake my parents up. Dude, I hated doing that. You walk in the room, and they're already asleep. And yeah, they just want to know you're home, but they're asleep, and you feel kind of bad waking them up. And then every time, no matter how quietly, I would try to wake my mom up nicely. Yeah.

I just like, you know, maybe tap on the door. Hi. Hi, mom. I'm home. And your dad wakes up and he like flicks on the way. Oh, okay. It's just you. You're home. You're home. Now you're scared. You're like, shit. I did.

And my favorite part is that's all happening. Like, you know, assuming this is a night that Ryan's mad because he's not even, he didn't even want to hear that you're home. He's just like, now I'm woken up and I got to go back to bed. I got to get up in the morning. That's what I mean. Like, assuming like, let's say you're, you're 10 minutes early. You're doing great. And you're early. You're like, I really don't even need to wake him up. Yeah. Then we came up with this, uh, the system where they would leave the hallway light on and I would turn the hallway light off when I got home.

home so they could wake up see that the light was off and then be like okay he's home safe much more efficient you just turn it off before you leave yeah turn it off and then walk right back out the door like one of those little things that like goes over the light switch and then it like turns the light off oh god I can imagine like Ken would have one in his room so he doesn't have to get out of bed to turn it on to his phone yeah but Ken was a teenager these days he'd just have it to his phone he'd just let me just turn on the hallway light

He's got that thing on smart switches. Everything is on smart switches. I love it. That's what I would do, though. I would turn off the light. I would wait. I would just stay. Okay, I'm going to pretend to leave now, actually leave in an hour, turn the light off, and then I'm good.

Yeah. Or sorry. That's if you were leaving late. Yeah. For sure. I don't even know if I snuck out really ever, maybe one time from my parents' house. You actually didn't really have, you didn't have much. I just didn't. I mean, I'd be home and like, I can't remember if it was one or two, but like,

What else was I going to do past then? Yeah, it is funny. When someone sets a limit, like you've got to be home by 1.30. But even now, I'm like, what the fuck am I going to do past 1.30? Like it's late. I'll go to bed, you know? That's because also like you were like more grown up than I was. As in like I would like, let's say if I was like... Mike's going and doing graffiti. He's like doing exactly what you would think. But you're still doing that to this day. It'll be a Tuesday and you're out till 4 a.m. Yeah, I think it's just like...

I don't know. That's just how you are. No, but I was saying like back in the day. I go home at 10. You got to be like, man, this is going to suck tomorrow morning. Yeah. Like there has to be a part of you that is like, damn, this is going to suck. Yeah, for sure. Really? And it's interesting the varying levels to it because yes, I think that. Yes, I know it's going to happen. Yes, it does suck. And then I like sometimes Evan can do the same thing, but even on like a higher level. And I'm just like, dude. And that was his bestest days. He's like, yep, we used to go and sometimes we'd end up

up till let's say four five down the bar and we're at work at six seven and i'm like that doesn't register so yeah there's varying levels to it but yeah i mean totally think that but in evan's case he's the type that can shut down the bar and then do something till 4 30 a.m and then have to get up at 6 30 a.m for his job but he'll do it and then he'll just be like oh

you know, a little groggy, but just like, that's, that's just like what he, he does. And then the same thing will happen like the night or two nights later. And he'll just continue to do it. But he's still like, like even to this day, I mean, when he's,

I literally don't know what he's doing till 4 a.m. on a random Tuesday around here. And with Mike and Cody. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what you guys are doing on the track at water trucks. Yeah. Yeah. And that's riding golf carts around. Yeah. No, they're having a fun time for sure. Yeah. And then the next morning, though, I have

never misses a beat. Yeah, he's up at 9 a.m. He's up and he's ready for whatever we're doing that day at 9 when the rest of us get to the shop. But Mike is like the polar opposite of that. Like where if we were to let him, he would sleep in until 3.30. Two different types of people. I think you've been great, Mike, since you've moved to Fargo. I love sleeping. No, now that you're in Fargo, you're not relying on us to wake you up almost. I don't know if you were relying, but it would seem like we always had to wake you up. Whereas now, it's like,

on you or maybe just sydney sydney's like you need to get up and go to work probably but no if you you get here probably just as early now the only other times i'm getting like merch done is like when i just hunker down stay up till like four and so some of those mornings that it it seems like like i you know i'm all right call it call it a night

If I sleep till 10, I'm just like, oh, man, I slept till 10. But also, I'm like, well, I only got, you know... Six hours of sleep. And so it's just like... This is how it is now. But I'm like...

I'm enjoying myself. We're all working hard. Like you guys put in your like time, you know, everyone here is clocked in working earlier than I am and vice versa. I'm sometimes oftentimes here like working later, but that's true. I feel like six hours of sleep is the minimum. Yeah. Like saying like any, like, like I, if I get six, I'm like, okay, I'm, I'm good.

I can keep going. And no matter what, you got to get up and keep going, whether you get two hours of sleep or nine. But like at six, I'm like, you're good. Like, yeah, you can go, but it's not ideal. I'd say like eight is ideal. Eight is like, you're good. You, you, you hit a perfect amount, not over overslept. You didn't get too little. Obviously it's different for each person. I think Elon Musk actually says that he sleeps six hours a

Because that's his optimal sleep time because he's trying to make the most out of obviously his time. But have you ever thought, Mike, maybe if you just set a deadline for yourself, like the end of the day, this needs to be done like this up to this stage. And I have to show this work maybe to this person.

then you would be able to do it within the daytime hours and have more of a normal schedule instead of stay up late, which I understand. Obviously at late hours, you kind of do have that creativity aspect to it. Cause I mean, I used to be the same way. A hundred percent thought that. Yeah. But I mean, that's something that I'm not trying to integrate. It is crazy. It's like,

Uh, so, you know, Thursdays are obviously great Thursdays. You guys are editing. That's when I get by far the most done during the day. Aside from that, like I don't get very far during the day. I actually do. I'm like, I want to create this energy on any other given day, but when we're filming it, dude, it's, yeah, it's hard. And you guys know that is like when we're filming, it's so hard to go from like, okay, we're filming this bit from 10 to three. And then we're at, we're getting on another bit, uh,

real quick at six, it'll be like six to eight. I can't get on the computer, which I hate. I hate it. I can't get on the computer and hunker down for like two hours, even with a buffer on either side. I hate it. I hate that. I can't do that. I hate it. I couldn't do it either. Even if we had some stuff prerecorded just to edit for three hours, it's too hard to get into the mindset. Yeah. That makes sense. Why Thursday is so much easier for you. Yeah. I love Thursdays. I've grown to love them because like I do, I feel like I'm in, I'm like, look at me being normal. It's like,

You know, it's still not super early, but I'm like, look at it before noon, just working on designs. Yeah.

Hey, Ken, pull up this video. It's the one with the hikers. So a few podcasts ago, it was actually a while ago already, we talked about people getting struck by lightning. And not in this video, but this TikTok has the story of three people getting struck by lightning. In the same group? The same group. So these people were hiking like Half Dome. I don't know where it is, which I should know. I think it's Yosemite.

They apparently tried to climb it in bad weather and a storm rolled in and a bunch of them got struck by lightning. But here's like the videos of them hunkering in a cave. I don't know what I expected, but I expected more damage.

Looks intense. Somebody looks lit. I'm not trying to get struck by lightning, but that looks like really sweet to climb. So I just remember seeing the videos when the lightning will strike it, probably a dead tree and it just explodes. And then that's like those few videos of them hitting inanimate objects. I'm like, I would die so fast and so hard. I know that's not to minimize. They're getting struck by lightning, but I expected some more damage. Yeah. It's going to explode a tree.

It'll fry a whole system, but like it just hits you and it just gives you a couple gray hairs or a little like burn mark. Burn hole, yeah. Like I've gotten burn worse from the cigarette lighter in a car. You kid playing around with those. Don't touch those. Yeah. Pretty scary though. I don't know. That would suck though. You got knocked out because you got hit by lightning. Temporary memory loss. Really?

Really? That's what it said, yeah. Which, that would be scary. He's like coming to and then being like, we're on the top of a mountain? Yeah. Why did I do this? I should be at home watching TV. Interesting. So there must be some kind of, obviously, impact and then a surge that goes through your body. Frickin' like the thing in Men in Black where they...

I just saw a video of a, I really wish I would have saved it, but it was like just two rednecks. They're probably drunk. And this guy, I don't even know if he's peeing or just like trying to beckon the horses, but he falls forward onto the electric fence, you know, like bends it over. He actually falls onto the trough and then he falls forward. But I didn't know what he was doing because I didn't know his electric. And then he's just like, he couldn't get up. Yeah. He's on the trough. Let's say this is a trough, a bunch of,

Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah. But you can't grab them because then you'll get the... No, the worst part was the guy that was filming Jess was like... Laughing. Yeah, I'm sure laughing at him. And he's literally like... Did you guys have any electric fences around your farm? Yeah, but I don't remember. I did touch one and it was like getting tased. Scary, but I was like, whoa. Have you been tased? Yeah, but not with a real taser, you know.

We chased each other on the podcast. Amazon tasers and stuff. It was like that, but your whole body, and you're like, that was scary, but you weren't injured. When I was a little kid, so my mom's side of the family, they had a farm, and whenever me and my grandpa would go drive around on the four-wheeler...

and look at the cattle and stuff, I'd hop off the four-wheeler and unhook the fence. I think I was hooking it back up or something, and when it hooked, I brushed my arm against it, but it zapped me, and I dropped.

Really? I was like a little kid. I don't know if it just scared me or what. But some are turned up more than others. It all depends on how much power you're running through. I remember dropping. That was really the only time I ever touched one. Wow. But I was young, so I'd probably been in elementary school. So I probably didn't have much strength. You were such a baby. I was. Before the gym. But if you pee on an electric fence, it would get you. If you pee on it, it would get you.

It's funny. I swear people like old dudes or whatever, uncles, whatever. Everybody you got to try to find out. Not necessarily try, but I swear they warn you more about peeing on it than ever about touching it. They don't really. They're like, ah. That's got to be such a strange sensation. Yeah, I remember. It goes up your pee into your hole. Into your like insides. Like talk about getting you.

That's some serious. Maybe you could zap that third ball out of your body. Maybe a little electric fence therapy. Yeah. Yeah, maybe that would help. Well, I feel like they warn you because it's obvious not to touch it, but all of them either heard the story of their buddy that did it and it hurt, so you don't want to see your little grandson. Oh.

His little pecker's act. That would be a pretty funny video, but obviously you couldn't really show it. But, yeah. Peeing on an electric fan. Yeah, I ended up giving Alex that taser she carries in her purse now. She had to use it? No. I don't think so.

but I just like take this with you. I do hear CJ occasionally like in the middle of the night, just scream for no reason. I always wonder, is that Alex Taysom? No, that's just, it's a pegging. Yeah, that's pegging. No, that's just nightmares. I feel like my dreams have been way more vivid and real and scary lately. I don't know what it is. Like, why do you like getting closer to reality? Well,

Like you're driving that big truck down the road, right? And it's driving straight. This is a nightmare. No. I got to wake up. I did have one about lawnmowers this week. Pretty stressed about that whole ordeal, but I was trying to get the people to there. And you know, it was just a lot. I did a great job. I was just thinking about it frequently. Yeah. I don't know. I think I kind of go through different, different waves of having nightmares. They seem to like come like closer to each other. Yeah. And like,

Recently, I haven't. That's nice. It's nice when you don't, but you deal with them frequently, all the time? Honestly, I typically, I only sometimes wake up from them, but yeah, I hear about it more so. I have nightmares. I run around. Really? I stand up. I jump. I shout. I scream. The most common one is he just screams or shouts really loud. I'm not like... They're like Joel Meem. Oh my gosh. I'm not angry shouting. It's more so like I got scared. Like I'm like, ah!

Which is scary. What are you doing? What are you doing? Oh, no, that is a scary one to hear. Ken's downstairs like, I'm next. You don't remember any of them? Sometimes, but I don't know. If it wakes you up, I guess. Yeah, I don't know. Or I'll wake up and I'm fucking digging in a drawer. I'm like, what am I doing? Better than peeing in it. Then I'm all mad. I'm like, God dang it. I'm all fired up now. I'm like, I've tried to wind down and go back to bed.

What do we have here? I don't know if this is a good podcast ender. It's just a real good time that I had yesterday morning before all the kids came over to mow our lawn. He for sure tried covering up his initial scare. I think his initial scare was, but then he was like, in the middle of screaming like that, he's like, oh shit. So then he tried playing it off like he was playing it up and he just held it longer. He's like,

To try and like make it seem like he. And the funniest part is it's pretty much exactly what he said after it happened. He goes, that was like kind of real. And then like, I don't know. Nothing better than scaring Evan, dude. That poor kid is so easy. Dude is such a tweaker, dude. I know I feel bad sometimes because, you know, you hate riling a guy up. I guess that clip does remind me of some of the, you know, you'll see people make a compilation of scaring their aunt, their mom, whoever on TikTok. You could do with Evan. Some of them are like tweaking.

20 clips long. And I just start to feel bad. I'm like, all right, let him live here. Let the man live. That's funny. Right after you did that, though, and then we went over to the farm, he was standing...

He was just standing like right on the driveway, right by the door. And me and CJ were just walking up. And I think there's some other stuff going on over here. He's right here. And we were coming from the other side. So he was looking that way. And we just walked up. And I go, all right, bro. And just me like getting close enough. And then him not knowing I was there and saying that. He was like, dude, you got to like let go.

like, let me know you're coming up. I guess he is deaf on one ear, so that does, that makes sense. I'm so glad that I'm not. He like, jumped around and was like, dude! I was like, bro, what? I was like, I didn't even try and scare you on this. We need to get him like a service dog that like, will alert him to surrounding threats. What kind of dog would it be? A wiener dog? Yeah, it just lets out like a singular, ow! Yeah,

Yeah. It just like looks and goes, and then he goes like, all right, great. Something's happening. What if, what if we got him a certain, the service dog, but then that dog was also easily spooked. Yeah. So then they were both just too jumpy little, they would be emotionally supporting each other. Well guys.
