Shownotes Transcript

I killed a kitten on the way here today. Elon, first of all, big fan. We could start raising horses and sell their cum. I'm done with police content and I just... Really? This is crazy.

Four years. That's how long it took Democrats to ruin our economy and plunge our southern border into anarchy. Who helped them hurt us? Ruben Gallego. Washington could have cut taxes for Arizona families, but Ruben blocked the bill. And his fellow Democrats gave a bigger break to the millionaire class in California and New York. They played favorites and cost us billions. And Ruben wasn't done yet.

Democrats could have secured the border. Instead, they invited an invasion and used our tax dollars to pay for it. Ruben Gallego even backed the law to let them vote in our elections. Don't give Gallego and the Democrats another four years to hurt us. Give your support to a real Arizona leader, Carrie Lake.

Kerry and the Republicans will secure the border, support our families, and never turn their backs on us. Kerry Lake for Senate. I'm Kerry Lake, candidate for U.S. Senate, and I approve this message. Paid for by Kerry Lake for Senate and the NRSC. Oh, dude, that looks like a very pointy hat, I'll tell you that. We made it 26 seconds. Hard cut to Cody, has two holes cut in that piece for that one. We can all agree the masses were a good idea.

God damn it. All right, Grand Wizard, would you like to lead us into the Unsub Podcast? Are we doing it? Oh, I guess we are doing it. Yeah, that's a great start right there. It's a great start. We want to welcome the new year in properly. Yeah, we're bringing it in right. Cody, get it going. Three, two, one.

Hi everyone, welcome to the unsubscribe podcast. I'm joined today by Eli Doubletap, Brandon Herrera, who is finally back in town, fuck you, and Mr. Demolition Ranch, Matt.

Howdy. And our boy, Cody. Hello. Hi. I'm here too. Dude, it's been a year since you've been on. Yeah, I didn't realize that. You told me that right before we started. And I was like, it hasn't been a year. And he was like, you're on. Last Christmas. Yeah, you're on the last Christmas. And I was like, oh yeah, that was a year ago. And that year went really fast. Really, really fast. Really, really fast. Kentucky, he lived this year, so that's great. Yeah, no major. He wasn't trying to get any attention this year like he was the other year. Yeah. Trying to purse merch. Trying to make it all about himself. Yeah.

Did you say perch some merch? Yeah. He goes hard on that. Dude, you've been doing what? Now you have your off the ranch. Well, it's your abandoned resort. Yeah. You're going full in on that thing. Yeah, I've lost all my money, so it's cool. Yeah, it's been great. Is it going good? Yeah, it's going good. I mean, it's just at the part where it only takes money and doesn't make money, you know? So I'm hoping that in 2024 we get over that hump.

But we'll see. And everything else is going good. The caving shit was the craziest thing. When do y'all want to go in the cave? No, never. You wouldn't do it? Not one moment in my life. I would love to go in your cave. Let's do it. I would love to get in that cave. Yeah. You can't come. We'll be your Ted. I'll be your Ted the caver. We had Wendigoon on recently. He did that thing with Hunter where they did the Ted the caver podcast.

It's like, no, I don't ever want to touch a cave, dude. Not now. That shit stresses me out. Have you guys seen the TikToks where it's like the guys that are like they have they're basically like just completely straight in the cave, like trying to inch forward and then it starts flooding?

Have you seen my cave videos? I saw like horrifying. There's this much air on one part and you have to do this to get through. You did it? I saw like 10 seconds of it and it stressed me the fuck out. I've done it a bunch and it's really fun. And safe. We can do it safely. I would love to. No one's died so far. How do they do it safely though? You just don't die. One time he's gonna die. No one's died. He goes back, comes back. He's like, okay, some people have died. Don't know how long they've been in there. Those are some bones right there. No one I know has died.

You're like, look, all right, well, I didn't die, and I was the only one there, so it's 100% safety rating. So far, as far as I know, it's 100% success rate. Dude, the caves are terrifying. It is very scary. The one in Russia. Yours doesn't go down. Yours is more like down. No, ours is just flat the whole way. But it's half full of water the whole way. Yeah, until you get to a point. Well, yeah, and then, so we got, so have y'all watched the, like,

Second and third videos. I've watched them. I don't want to watch that. We pumped the water out of the cave because it got to a point where there was this much air and we were like, we can't go that far. So we pumped the water out of the cave and then we went back in there and kept crawling through mud and then it goes up into this room with all these stalactites and stalagmites everywhere. No shit. It was insane. And then it goes further and we went down that way too and we were like, if it filled back up with water right now, we're just stuck in this room.

So that was kind of scary. And then you hear the pump turn off. I wouldn't do that again. No, because we could see the water trickling back in there, but it was like barely. So it probably takes weeks to fill up. Probably. I don't know. Probably. But anyway, we went like far back and then it kept going. And I was like, I'm done. Like it was getting steamy. There were like eight of us. And I was like, we're running out of oxygen back here, I think. So it was nerve wracking.

Are you in? I want to do it so bad. But we wouldn't do that. We would just go to the part that you can go without pumping water. Because it's all full of water again now. So we would just go back to the fun part. Oh, so it fills up that quick. I definitely want to do that. That was over a month ago. So, yeah. I'm going to need at least a Xanax and a half. If you don't do it, you're a puss.

All right. You heard it here first. If Donut doesn't do it, big puss. I'm going to suffocate because of puss. Just a racist us. Hey, hey, don't worry about my Grand Wizard hat. Bringing in 2024 with new colors. Oh, no, no, no. There wasn't nothing wrong with the old colors.

It's like, oh, God. The cave, because you have to have the cave, you have those horror stories, Putty Cave, where that dude died upside down. Oh, I heard about that. Yeah. All right, never mind. I'm not going to the cave again. Dude, that one's crazy, because it's like, I can slip through, and then like, oh, you're stuck. And I can't go anywhere now. Yeah, just down.

Just head in the fucking water. No one can help you. And then they can't. They just kill me. And they left him in there and blew him up. Closed him in there. Yep. Literally what they did. They're like, yeah, they just left the body in there because they couldn't recover. They were saying it was too dangerous for them to even crawl down that shaft to go get him, get his dead body out. They knew he was dead.

And so they were like, let's just close them up in there. And they closed them up in there and he's buried in there. Holy fuck. They blew it up so no one else could go in. There was one, I think it was his brother or someone, was the only one that could get past that one spot. Everyone was like, we can't get past this one spot. So he got through, went, his brother's like, I'm stuck, I can't do anything. And they were trying to wiggle, he was trying to pull. And you're like, this much movement, you're like.

Did I do it? Yeah. It's like gravity is fighting you the whole time. I can't get comfortable. I remember on the Wendigoon podcast, like we conflated two stories. It was like the one that they did with Internet Historian, like that story and then the Putty Cave. Like there were two different ones because that one, the guy was stuck for like 17 days. What?

And it became like a national news story. Like the newspapers were covering it and everything like that. Like the fucking president was involved. Did he live? No, he died. And they weighed outside the cave. So anyway, about your cave. Yeah. That was the Putty Cave one? No, that was a different one. That wasn't Putty Cave. I've never heard the Putty Cave one. Dude, I picked Putty Cave one because it was one spot they got through. And he's like, cool, there's another opening down here. So when he went down, he positioned himself upside down. He was going to scoot, and he just got hooked.

And then his body couldn't move and there was no leverage. So we had cave YouTubers come in. They were excited about it. And they found a bunch of little caves on the property. And it's like you're scooting through a tiny passage. And I was like, why on earth would you ever like this? But it's because...

They're messed up in the brain. Yeah. And they want to know what is at the end of that tunnel. And there's never anything. You know, it always just keeps going or it just ends in a little point. But they're always like, but what if there's something? And no one's ever been here before. They've watched Goonies one too many times because it's like, dude, I think we're niche. I think like GunTubers. Yeah. Oh, we're super fucking niche. There's no way we'll ever like really take off. And then I remember that there's fucking caving YouTubers. Yep.

That are mega successful. That's the thing too. There's nothing that's ever been discovered. A place that no human has ever stepped foot.

And that's why they want to go down there and do that where it's like, it's like, it's like stepping on the moon. It's like no man has ever been there. And then if you find a certain part of a cave, no man has ever been there. They did. They found virgin cave. They like busted through this little tiny sliver. They like drilled it out and they found virgin cave. And like, I went in it after them and it's like, it was miserable. I'm all scratched and bruised all over from it. And I'm sweating. And I'm just like, I just want out of here. And they're like,

You want to see the end? And I'm like, no, I'm done. I'm tired of crawling on rocks. Yeah.

But what if there's charges? Yes, Blackbeard came and was like, keep digging in. This place you keep saying no human has ever been to. There's definitely gold doubloons at the end. But they're just like, what if? They're excited by it, which I get. We're excited about weird things. Well, that's the crazy thing is because those virgin caves can open up and expand into fucking monstrosities. That's another thing they're looking for is just what if there's a huge room?

And that is exciting. Vervinka Cave is the one in Russia, that huge one. Until it was discovered in the 1960s, and then until 1990s, we've explored it all. And it was 440 meters deep. Jeez.

So it's like 1,000. What the fuck? How many feet is that? 440 meters? Yeah, it's like 1,300 feet. Yeah, so 1,300 feet straight down. Or not straight down. They were like, holy shit, we found all this stuff. And then in 2010, they were re-exploring it, found a new entrance. That fucking cave went from 1,440 meters to...

ended up being 2,324 meters deep. So 7,000 feet deep that thing went. Once they started exploring, they're like, holy shit. And it keeps going and going. It takes seven days to get to the bottom. Yeah. Exactly. Well, it's a terrifying thing. When they were exploring that deep portion,

It wasn't raining. The rainy season just happened. So they were down there. It takes days for the rain to start cycling in. So they're like, oh, storm's going on. We're fine. And then it started filling all the way up. It filled up. Terrifying. Yeah. This reminds me of like playing Fallout New Vegas and like going to like the deepest, darkest part of a cave for no reward.

Oh, yeah. You just spent hours going down like, oh, yeah, there's nothing here. You're like, I guess I have to walk all the way back out for fucking nothing. Oh, this is super cool. But 7000 feet. I guess Statue of Liberty is what? 305 feet. This is 7000 feet deep. Wait, the Statue of Liberty is 305 feet? Of France. What the hell? They shorted us. Fuck you. Fuck y'all. Should have made it bigger. Thanks for the gift.

You're welcome for Normandy, asshole. You're saying Statue of Liberty, like, that's walking upstairs. This is a cave. It's like there's climbing involved and, like, crawling. And it's not just, like, stairway up all the way 7,000 feet. Roping down. There's roping. The rope on the first descent's, like, I think it was 160 feet for the first descent. And then you're like, oh. And that's why they found it in 2010 or whenever. Found the new hole. And they're like, cool, let's explore.

It was a 300-foot descent, and they're like, we don't have the ropes to even touch the bottom of this. So then they went, got more rope, and then continued exploring. That's like a different kind of claustrophobia to me. To me, it's just the anxiety of if I want to get out, I want to be able to get out in 10 seconds. You want to be able to see that light the whole time. Yeah. They must not feel that, though. No. You're like, man, Earth would just kill. That is an instantaneous death. Yeah.

If there's a shift in the tectonic plate, it's like, boom, swish, you're gone. No one will ever find your body for as long as you live. You are dead. Well, as long as you live. Oh, yeah, yeah. Bad words. For as long as the human species lives. But you enjoyed it a little bit.

Uh, yes. You'll have to see my cave because after this podcast I'll show you my cave. That's why we're feeding you, Wattclaw. Because it's just fun and it's all flat and you're swimming through this deep of water so you're kind of like crawling swimming

And it's really cool. It's neat. Which part of it did you enjoy? If you could analyze for yourself, what was the dopamine release? What did you enjoy out of that whole deal? So it took us three different times to get... The first time, I went 10 feet in, and there's crickets all over the ceiling. And I was like, nope! Because there's this much air, and it's covered in crickets. And I'm just like, nah, I'm done. And I got back out. I didn't have a wetsuit or anything, so the water's freezing. And the second time, I was like...

I'm going past the crickets and I still didn't have a wetsuit but it was like brave soul it was a week later and I went in but I was like someone needs to go with me so the first time no one was there to go with me and second time a couple people went with me and we I went past the crickets and they're like falling in the water and it's like and it was gross but we went like further back to where I'm like I think this is as far as we should go like we couldn't couldn't see light anymore and

Then the next time we were like, let's go further. And we got wetsuits. So we weren't like freezing the whole time. And we went all the way back to the back to where we couldn't go any further. And then the next time we pumped the water out. So it was like every time we went a little further, got a little braver. I was also just worried like the water would poison me. And I was like, well, I didn't die the first three times in the water. So I'm probably fine. There's no amoebas in my brain. Yeah. You start no new ones anyway. Yep. Exactly. Just a little bit of time. Who's the person that got afraid of?

I swear someone freaked out in one of your caving videos. Besides me? I don't know. I did. They couldn't breathe. Oh, Clint. Clint freaked out. Yeah, Clint. So there's one part where there's this much air, but on the right side of the room, the right side of the tunnel, it's this much air, and he didn't know there was more on the left side. So I found this passage. I was going through the left like,

Fuck that, dude. No, no. I'm already done, dude. Fuck that. He went this way. He's like, I can't breathe. And he bailed. But he didn't know there was like a... I thought he could see it. He couldn't see it.

So he freaked out because he was like, I don't know how Matt did that. And I was like, did you go through the left side? He's like, there was a left side? I didn't know that. And I'm over here watching the video like, I know how Matt did that. I just don't know why. In case there's gold. Do people know where your property is now? Yeah. Okay, so can I say cave without a name? Yeah. Okay. So your caves are probably connected with the

cave with a very possible. Yeah. Like three miles away. No, it's less than that because it's three miles down the road. It's probably like one mile away. There's a huge cave system that like is a public cave and go take tours in and stuff. So there's got to be some connections from mine. Just thinking it's called a cave without a name. Yeah. Randomly, some dude just pops up at your cave system. You're just like, I've been lost.

I've been lost for 17 days. If we can find the connection, we can get into Cave Without a Name without paying the entrance fee. We just go through mine, walk over there. That's the real winner. Yeah. Just trick people. I like what you're saying. It's like when you break up with a girlfriend. It's like you search out the cave without a name. Church's original recipe is back. You can never go wrong with original.

Still tastes the same like back in the day. Right now, get two pieces of chicken starting at only $2.99 or 10 pieces starting at only $10.99. Churches. Offer valid at participating locations. I'm glad you were listening. I didn't. You guys were like talking, talking. That flew right over. Cody started laughing. I didn't hear it. I think he got it. That's pretty good. He's like, I need to call her. I should call her. Yeah. I should call the cave with her name. Yeah.

That's in your phone. Like, why are you getting a FaceTime from the cave without a name? Don't worry about it, baby. Don't worry about it. Hello, hello, hello, hello. But everything else you're doing, your gun content also, which crushing everyone. I mean, now we're just with nothing but gun tubers.

Can we talk about the Gun Tuber Range Day that we did? Yeah, we would love to. I want to know your perspective of how many people showed up. Yeah. So I was kind of at first when so y'all did this thing, what, two times before? Yeah. And so and I had come to the last one and saw like, yeah, there were like 50 people there or whatever. And it was cool. And then we were like, let's do it bigger. Yeah.

And so I was like not really wanting to put too much effort into the range day because I was like, well, you know, it might not be that many people to show up. And then we were like, well, let's just go ahead and build a nice big range because we need it anyway. And just in case it's huge, uh,

And then, like, I don't know, 300 people showed up. 300 people on the sign-up sheet, which means, like, 350, 400 people actually came there. And, like, big names were there, big YouTubers and big, real, like, mainstream celebrities. And, yeah, it was 100% total success in my book. Like, couldn't have been any better. You cried. Like, all y'all just put together an amazing event. I already said walking that corner because...

We didn't realize how far that drive was. That was a big fail on our part, is whoever was at the gate, Leslie and Darius, they had never been back to the range, and they didn't know that you can't just walk it. It's a 20-minute walk.

We had this dirt road. But we still had a really, really big range state despite that. Yep, it was great. Yeah, it was perfect. But yeah, the walk was rough. But then, yeah, when you turn the corner, what were you saying? Well, that walk is, for reference, you hear the gunfire in the distance. It's like, man, it's right around the corner. You turn a corner, and it just keeps going. You're like, how far? It's a long dirt road to actually get to the range from where Eli parked. Well, there was a lot, and that's what's crazy. You had a bunch of cars parked out there.

I had no idea they were doing that. And then I turned left on that last left turn. There's cars everywhere. Yes, it is a fucking parking lot. I got there like an hour early and just saw the amount of people parked out there, what the range looked like, everything. And that was peak anxiety for me. Just like, oh, Jesus Christ. I thought there was going to be like 150 people here. That's kind of what I expected. Yeah, you round that. This doesn't even kick off for another...

Hour and a half. Already more people than I thought would be. Someone's going to get shot today. Tim and Goldberg even talked about that. They were like, I thought it was like 30 people that were going to be there. I think Goldberg just went to support us. He's like, those guys, I'll go just support. Then he showed up and was like, oh shit. This is huge. He's just being a nice guy. I don't even think he shot guns. There were so many people. He just had guns on his back. He's like, I don't need to go shoot guns here.

was insane he's gold but we did mess up one thing that we have to remedy before the next one we need a freaking name for this thing it can't just be range day yeah well i mean we just call it creator range day has been like our thing because like i don't know what else to call it it's like this is just range day for creators yeah you make stuff and you have a following like i just raised a rally i posted on twitter asking for good job buddy range day rally

I just like to wear his hat. I know. Welcome to ranch day round. No, that's Tuesday night meetings. Don't know. Okay. Not that one. Your home screen. So cute. What is it? Me and my family. Oh yeah. It's me and your wife. Uh,

Danger range. Danger ranger. I ask for suggestions. Danger ranger. America package day. That sounds like... That's a terrorist act. Based bros range day. That's Ted Kaczynski. Yeah. American package day.

Surprise. That is a terrible name. Berm Busters. The Industrial Revolution was a mistake. The Berm Buster? Pew Pew Palooza. The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for mankind. Wait, Pew Pew Palooza. Demo Nut Guy. That sounds gross. Demos Nut.

Point and shooty patooty. Who made these? No, no. Also, your average audience is like, you know, 17, 16. Yep. Oh, God. The dad range day. Donut, AK guy demo. DAD. Dad. Okay, all right. Do you want to come on, dad? Come to... What? What? Come to dad? Come on, dad. I mean, to dad. I mean... Come in, dad. No. No.

The Pray and Spray range day. Pray and Spray. That's actually a hard one to come up with a good name. Catholic VBS. Any good ones in there? You're like, nah. I'm reading the best ones. Oh, God. What did you just put it out on there? I just put it on Twitter when I was sitting on the couch over there. Oh, wow. That was since... Okay, never mind. I was like, huh?

No, it's hard coming up with a name like that. Stop resisting, Range Day. I'm not going to open my mouth. Cody's like, let me put this back on. It's always his go-to. He's like, well, time to put the hat back on. Oh, hell. Demolition Man, kind of like Burning Man, but with guns. Demolition Man's not bad. I like Demolition Man. Guys, if you haven't watched Demolition Man recently, please watch it. It's one of the best action movies of all time. Three shells.

You don't know how to use the three seashells? You don't know how to use the seashells, dude? I didn't realize it was like cussing was illegal in that. When they go to the future, that future he wakes up in. I forgot the entire plot point on that entire movie until I rewatched it. I was like, ugh. Well, a lot of people are comparing that to these days.

Where it's like, you can't curse. You can't say this. You get a ticket. You get a ticket. I need to watch that. I haven't seen that. Dude, you got dethroned, by the way. On what? Oh, yeah. On the top podcast episode. I saw that with... Who was it? Fat Electrician? Yeah. Nick. Two of them. Three, I think now. Three? I don't know. What is the number on that? His just smoked him. You guys need to do a... You guys actually need to do an episode together. Yeah, that'd be cool. Because that has not happened yet. You guys should fight. All right, we did. And he took me out real fast.

He's a purple belt, right? It turns out Nick is very big and very strong and is a purple belt. The reason he's a purple belt is because he doesn't have the caliber of fighters, I want to say, in his gym that can put him in black belts. So he's been doing it for a decade now. So he's technically... We wrestled in about a black belt. Four seconds, I was like, yeah, tap. I'm done. I would bet he would have people that could put him as a black belt if he was here in Texas. Oh, yeah.

Maybe he should come to Texas. He's Iowa. He's still in Iowa. He's looking, though. He is looking. The only thing they've got in Iowa is a caucus, which is a little sus, if I'm being honest. Cock sauce? Cock sauce, yeah. They only have a cock sauce there. They have Slipknot. Slipknot's from Iowa? You didn't know that? No. Because if you were from Iowa, you would push your fingers into your eyes.

Jesus fucking Christ. That was a Nick joke, I hope. That was a dad joke. That was a strong, strong dad joke. I love that song. Which one? Push your fingers into your eyes. Oh my God. That was a Slipknot joke, yeah. Yeah. Fucking stupid. You didn't catch it. No, I'm the target. You're a fucking dad. I'm the worst guy at music. I know, you listen to anime music. All right, let me tell a story about Elon. You just told me this one last week and I fucking loved it.

Okay, so my first time visiting Texas, I think it was my first time visiting, Eli and I. I suddenly remember the story. Eli and I are driving around. I probably told Brandon about it. I'm like, this motherfucker. So I'm driving around with Eli, and he's like, what do you listen to? I'm like, I don't care. And he puts on music. It's fucking anime, like anime theme song music. It's just like...

It's very inspirational. What was that? Don't worry about it. It's like the theme song to every anime ever. And I'm like, holy fuck, this guy listens to this? This is crazy. This is what he wants to listen to? Yeah, you're like, ah, this guy's weird. Eli drives down the road and listens to anime theme songs, by the way. And his Chrysler 300 Vector.

Back in your old place, dude, like when we went for your fucking birthday, like you just like riding around those fucking curves. Oh, yeah. I can rip through that thing with my brother. Like, dude, you would white knuckle driving with Eli. Fucking hell. You were like vomited after we got into your car that one time. Because Eli, okay. At the range? At the range.

Yes. After we went to the range. Yeah, after the range. You guys were like, just moved or not moved yet. And we were like, that was the birthday weekend, which was... It was like four fucking years ago. My favorite birthday of all time. Oh my God. Because Eli used to be a race car driver. So he's like handling these curves crazy. We get out. I fucking vomit while we're listening to anime music in his car. And he's just like, easy, easy day, easy day.

That was ridiculous. Now we're all like fucking best friends, but like back then, like we were at that fucking tight. So I'm thinking like, if I puke in Eli's car, this is the end for me. And as soon as we get out, you vomit in the fucking ditch. And I'm like, thank God. I'm like, what's up guys? What's wrong? Yeah, I was mostly sick. Huh? Why?

I was why I was driving very fast through every corner and I don't slow down. Like, man, we're good. The whole time. I think I'm a bitch. I'm a bitch. Don't say anything. Don't say it. That is my favorite birthday that I've, I probably will ever have. That is the 2020 peak birthday of we are 35, 36, however old I was. We're all in our thirties. You're still 20.

Brandon's 18. 18. He just turned 19, I think. Yeah, 23. I'm 14. Brandon's 12 and he's already shaving. And then, what do we do for my 21st or my 35th birthday or whatever birthday? Do we go to the club? Do we go to bars? Fuck no. We get shit wrecked at my house out in the country. Strap.

Stream video games have air mattress blows all over the living room. And watch 4V Ferrari. Got tattoos. Got tattoos also. Was that when you got the toe tattoos? I still got to get that one. One of them, yeah. I got to get the gang tat still. You get the gang tat? Had the best stream ever with people...

Yeah. Saying TOS words. Gamer words. Gamer words. And they didn't know. They were like, ah, blah. And then he's just playing. Turns back. He's like, you can't say that. And then Burn's like, wait, you can't say gamer words?

I was in the kitchen doing other things. It was a fucking good night, dude. You were doing other things? I was doing other things in the kitchen. We don't talk about those things.

It was such a good time. It was a cat five night. It was a cat five night. Oh, yeah. That was a cat five all the way. But anyways, the next morning, we fucking vomited after Eli drove us to the range. Yeah, that was... It was a good range, though. That was just a blast. That was one of my favorite moments. Like, probably a birthday that will never... Because it felt like I was...

14 again, just playing video games with the guys. This is great. And this was the first time you were hanging out with everyone I wanted. Or one of the first times. Can I tell the story about Best? Yeah. We were talking about just a bunch of sensitive group shit, whatever. We all just talk back and forth about what's going on in our lives. And at that point, like

So that was my first time really hanging out, like really hanging out with the group all together. Get that man a, a claw Cody. And then Matt best had, you know, we were just, we're talking shit. And he's just like, Oh God, like I don't,

He's like, ah, who the fuck is this guy? Because he didn't really know who I was. Oh, yeah, Brandon was just blowing up at that time. Yeah, pretty new to the group as a whole. He's like, all right, well, you know, if any of this shit leaks to the internet, I just know I'll have to fucking cut your fucking head off. And then Eli looks at me, like, dead in the eyes, like, he'll fucking do it, too. Yeah.

And then on my fucking flight home, I just download his book because it just came out at the time on Audible. And I get to the point where he talks about cutting someone's fucking head off. And I'm like, oh, God. They were fucking serious. Brandon's like, huh? When he made that joke, they weren't joking. He's like, I'm not going back to Texas ever. I can't leak anything. They'll kill me.

It hits fucking different when you know the person who said, I'll cut your fucking head off. You have verifiable DOD approved evidence that they've cut some motherfucker's head off. Uh-oh. I'm going to close that and just sit here. Never make those guys mad. That sounds like a really good idea. And here we are, and it's all worked out. He hasn't cut any of our heads off yet. Not yet. Yo, do you do vet shit anymore? Not really.

You still own the clinic? When was the last time you killed a kitten? I sold the clinic. Really? No shit. I didn't know that. Well, congratulations. I killed the kitten on the way here today so I could get here faster. I was running a little late. He teleported. My truck's not outside. Also, a family got killed.

If he was on the highway, he's like, I'm not going to make it. The truck just goes right through. No, no, no. If I kill four kittens at once, I can bring the truck too. All right. Can I ask something? We haven't done it since I've been on the podcast so far. The offenders. Like we had a superhero group called the offenders. We haven't done it. Matt's was killing kittens. He snaps a kitten's head.

and then he can teleport anywhere as long as he has one kitten per teleport. What was yours? Mine was shitting to go the speed of light or Captain Cutcold, which was I could move at the speed of light. It's just when I get there, I can't do anything for, I think it was like one minute. That's my favorite. That's pretty funny. And I love that trick because I'm like, hello lady. And she's like, help me. I was like, technically. I got 58 seconds left. I have phasing through. Can you call the police? Yeah.

See? Nothing. Nothing. Just hold on now. You're taking great notes. Yeah, you're doing good. The suspect has brown eyes, short Mexican. That's all I'm doing is just taking notes. Which is about 60% of San Antonio. Didn't narrow it down at all.

What were you going on with this? Oh, God. I wasn't trying to go on with it. I was trying to avoid my superpower. You can fly, right? I can fly. As long as... As long as I say racial slurs. So the whole bit is that we can pick our superpower, but that the gang has to pick our offset. So you have to do something bad to do something good. Yes. What's yours? I believe mine is that I'm invincible, but I just have to fucking...

G-Van, you know, could work on this segment, so he doesn't say that word. Self-forever sleep. I just have to sewer slide, but I technically can't die. I'll just wake up the next day. But the best part of it is his previous corpse does stay there. He doesn't know what happened on that day. So there's a blank spot in his memory? Imagine just waking up in the morning. Hmm.

And you just see yourself like fucking from the ceiling fan. You're like, oh. Oh, shit. I got to clean that up now. You just saw those ceiling fans. Whoa. Oh, fuck. First off, that ceiling fan is strong. So yesterday was a bad day. What made it that bad? What?

Wake up, back up to. Now it's two bodies. You're like, shit! But he doesn't remember it, right? Yeah, exactly. He wakes up. We all have plans in life. Maybe to take a cross-country road trip or simply get through this workout without any back pain. Whether our plans are big, small, spontaneous, or years in the making, good health helps us accomplish them.

at banner health we're here to provide more than health care whatever you're planning wherever you're going we're here to help you get there banner health exhale screaming there's 18 fucking bodies that's just where he's waking up and he goes that fan would be more balanced if there was two of me up there you start doing it for fun there's like 18 19 it's like a

wind chime like that was the apartment starting to stink a little bit how long have i been doing this for so why did you bring that up yeah who came up the avengers i mean the offenders is that you i forget why that's og unsub i think very funny yeah someone find it me can you just needs to i want him to

Either we film one and we spend like a solid five to 10 grand to make a five minute skit about it. Cause that'd be a hundred percent worth it. In my opinion. Yes. Yep. With the VFX, we'll have corridor. And you can get free kittens at the pound and no one cares about them. See, see,

Like, well, I want you to know this, but the kittens have the powder free. You just take them. Yep. And you don't have to, like, you know, do anything with them. Oh, man. I hate, like, in my head, I can envision we're losing. Like, we have our ass beat. And then you see the...

Demos feet appear and the camera slowly pans up and I just drop it and drop it. It's like He drops it. Your hero's here. What do you need? Yeah, just snapping and they're like pick this car up off me. I'm like, oh, I don't have super strength. I can just teleport. So you pull the second kitten out of your pocket.

Bail? You remember we were talking about like Demo gets tired of going to the kitchen to get a beer so he's like he's got a bag of kittens and he's just like alright beer snap back to his couch. You get to your car and you're like oh my keys are in the bedroom.

I'm back. You're going to hit that mark. I think we discussed it. You will hit a mark where you have that. It's like, I don't know. Where you have no feelings for the kittens anymore. They're just, they're a resource. You kill kittens on the daily. Every time some like country family throws a bag of kittens in the river, you're like, oh, infinite ammo. They kill kittens at the pounds every day. Might as well just give them to me. I'll take a bag. You kill a kitten to go get the bag of free kittens to kill? No.

It's investing. Infinite ammo hack. They forgot their bag at home. I'll get it, honey. He forgot his lunchbox for school. I'll go get it. That's three kittens. Three kittens just to get a lunchbox and you're a-okay with that. Your kids were just traumatized. But when they figure out like, oh God. Does the kitten go with you or does it drop wherever you were? I think it goes with me and I drop it in the new place.

It's definitely fuddier. I come through and then I'm like, "Hello!" And I just have this mangled kitten and I'm like... Greetings! You go to save kids in a burning building and you're holding a dead cat? Ooh, don't worry about that. Come on. Click. In front of him. Double trauma. Teleports back. "Your child is sick!" "Broke the wrong neck." Teleport away! Is your baby a male elf?

I'm out of here. He can never get captured. Jesus. Did you... Does it work for just kittens? Or like...

The crackhead in the cell next to it. Well, that's what it would be that experiment. If I try like a baby possum, what would happen? Yeah. You halfway. You got to give me a baby possum if you find one. Okay. We'll do. Oh, that would make Heather so happy. Oh, dude. Heather would love a baby possum. So if anyone out there finds a baby possum. Send it to mailing address. Yeah.

Mail it to my P.O. box. You just get a P.O. box full of dead baby possums? Don't do that. But if you're in the Texas area and you find a baby possum, please let me know. That doesn't have rabies? That doesn't have... Wait, they can't get rabies, right? They for sure can.

They probably wouldn't because if something had rabies in it, it would probably kill them. I thought their body temperature was too low. I've never heard this. He's a doctor. They're not a high risk. There's only a couple high risk rabies. It's like raccoons. Wait, hold on. When did you get bit by a possum? Don't worry about it, dude. Why did you get... Never mind. I've never heard that before and it could be true. I'm going to die.

How long would you get bit? How's Off the Ranch doing? Good. I changed the name to Matt Carriker. I actually saw that recently, yeah. What inspired you to do that? I've been wanting to do it for like two years because every video on Off the Ranch was on a ranch, and so it just didn't make any sense. Scoot back a little. So, yeah, I just named it Matt Carriker. No real reason except I thought Off the Ranch was dumb.

I think one good thing you did, it fucking sucks that you had to do this, but you don't put gun content on that channel. And that sucks so much. I wish I could put all my videos on one channel. That'd be way nicer. But advertising-wise, it makes a huge difference. But there's some advertisers who are like, they know I'm the gun guy, but they still are like, as long as it's on the non-gun channel, we'll advertise with you.

So when you're negotiating sponsored deals, they don't want the gun channel specifically. Well, I mean, there's some of my advertisers on the gun channel, on Demolition Ranch, are like, don't put any guns while you're talking about our product. I'm like, why? And they're like, we just have...

The rules are weird with gun-specific content. I'm like, there'll be guns literally right after I'm done talking about it. That's fine. Well, a lot of them probably just want to clip it for socials like Facebook and shit where they want to be able to reuse it. Yeah, probably so. Because it makes a huge difference. We've discussed it many times where it's like, that's why Unsub's very specific. And we're like, hey, we won't show, touch this. We'll talk about it all day long. Just won't show it because. So I shouldn't pull my fucking gun out? That's your dick.

I hate it how advertisers won't go near guns. I'm surprised yours are like the bravest adverts. Yeah, that is true. Cody's are like guns and murder. Yeah. I have a product I want to put right in between here.

Could you? I really don't understand it. How many like advertisers won't touch guns, but they'll touch your stuff. Like you make more in ad revenue than I do on fucking sponsored ads. And your videos literally contain like people getting shot and killed. Oh, it's murder. It's fucking insane. Yeah. Like, don't get me wrong. I'm glad you guys do. I'm glad the advertisers do because I like you to have a good living. But holy fuck. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know.

Why? But I appreciate everything that they do. I'm just thinking about those meetings. It's like, yeah, could you put our Raid Shadow Legends in between somewhere in this... Black man gets shot by cops. Right before the cop hits him with the car. Can we do it right before that? Can we tell the Raid Shadow Legends story? What's the Raid Shadow Legends? Why you don't do raid ads? Oh, because they ask too much? No, because your voice...

Oh, God. Yeah. Your funny voice. No, I don't know this story. I went. Okay. So like Raid Shadow Legends, I don't do their ads anymore because they hit me up and they were like, do this ad. And I did their ad because they have a fucking five page script that

And when I did the ad, I did that. Welcome to Raid Shadow Legends. Raid Shadow Legends does this. You can pick this character and do this. And I was doing that voice. And they were like, we don't like your voice. You can't do this. But I read, like, I did everything they wanted to. And they were like, we'll approve this ad. But you're doing the voice. The, yeah, Raid Shadow Legends. The whole, like, the script they want you to read. Like, it's a fucking trailer. Like, enter a world of 3D entertainment masterpiece. Like, that whole shit.

Yeah, and they were just like, no, we're not going to take it. I was like, well, I'm not fucking not going to do that. You've all done Raid Shadow Legends, right? I've done a lot. Yeah, because yours is huge. You have a giant community that plays with you, right? Raid is probably... You're like, join my team today. All of you have monster games. So a lot of those, what do you call them, mobile games, they don't last very long. They last a year and they're gone. Raid has been around for like...

five years and they keep coming back and sponsoring and so like they're killing it I guess. Is that mobile app money? They make some money. G-Van, real quick. Can we like talk shit about Raid? Are you good with that? I don't care. Okay.

Raid's not going to watch this. I don't give a fuck. I don't know if they're still sponsoring us. I don't know. So yeah, I don't care. God damn it. Demo is no longer like us. We cut him off forever. Aren't they Russian? I think a lot of the media companies were Ukrainian-ish.

But then like some of them have ties to Israel, but I think they were like heavily based in China. Like originally they're Chinese. Those sound like Chinese apps. Yeah. Those are definitely. I thought they were Russian though. Maybe not. I don't know. I can't do that accent.

I can do an Asian one just fine. Hello, my friends. This is Epius Russia again. Yes, let's go. Maybe they would have been happy if I fucking did your voice. I don't know. Hi, welcome. You join us. We love you. Okay, we give you free money. You join right now. Join big Cody Donut Operators. They crush everyone. Also, check out Demolition Ranch. I had an ad deal from Carvana, who's those like car.

Yep, and They sent us the script that we're supposed to read and everything and I was like it's kind of weird or whatever so we did it all Sitting in my El Camino and then we green screened it to make it look like I was driving But it was like really fake like well. I'm like oh wait. I remember like doing the talk knowing everyone life I'm doing the talking points at one point I'm like hanging out the window and then like I have my feet up on the steering wheel and pretending like I'm steering totally fake and they were like

It looked kind of too realistic, like he might be driving and that looks unsafe and we don't want people to do that. That's the one you had to go over the top fake, right? I swore you sent me something about that. Oh, I maybe sent it to you. Yeah, I was like, man, this sounds really familiar. It never went live because I was like, I'm driving with my feet and it's an obvious green screen. It was very obvious. And they were like, some people might not know it's fake. And I was like, we're not redoing it. And I just said no. And they were like, all right.

And they were like, you have to redo it. I was like, I'm not doing it. You should have just put like the background as something ridiculous if you already feel like. Yeah, like a dinosaur or something. Exactly. Driving through Jurassic Park. But I was like, I'm driving with my feet while I'm doing the talking points. There's no way anyone's going to think that's real. You're in the Tesla Roadster going by Mars. I swore, were you like doing crazy stuff with your feet too?

I don't remember. I don't know. It was a couple years ago, and I just didn't do it. I never posted it because the deal fell through when I was like, I'm not redoing. I'm not going to make it look faker than it already is. Some of those companies out there, if you want a tip of advice, free advice is let the dudes or content creators just do their own piece. You know who's got the best fucking ads in the entire business? Internet Historian.

I've never watched him really internet historian has the best ads because he does like Nord VPN raid shadow legends Whatever like he does his own shit, but it's more of his content. It's fucking hilarious Yeah, you can put your own twist on it. It's so much better It's like you're you guys were talking about us like how do people with your ads on murder? Like what I do with the police shootings and stuff. It's because those people let me have creative preference on what I do and

It's like, that's why they do it because it sells. Cause I can put myself into it. You can make it genuine. Yeah, absolutely. Versus here's a script you have to read. You're like, oh man, this is not, I started just doing, it's like, and this is,

And then they give 20% off! You can tell the creators that don't give a crap about it, which I've had ads like this, because you only say one sentence at a time and then it cuts. Because you're having to memorize some weird stuff, you're like, and this is a blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, cut. And the best thing about it is blah blah blah, cut. And the thing I like most about it...

I'm feeling real fucking attacked right now. I just hold the phone up now. It's way easier that way. I started out my last, like, I had a PDS debt fucking ad the other day, and I just started out, like, swishing a fucking whiskey glass. I'm like, are you in debt? I know I am. And they fucking let me roll with it. I'm like, oh, you guys are rad. Okay. So, Muscle Rod Brandon?

He uh, he did an ad, I think it was like a Raid Shadow Legends, which is hard because they have a lot of weird words to say. He couldn't even make it through a sentence, so it was like, he was like, "My favorite champion, cut."

is Brutus because cut. His magical sage powers, cut. And it was just like cut cut cut cut cut because he could not make it through a sentence and I was I like text him like good job on that ad bro. Fucking nailed it. It's like you couldn't memorize one sentence at a time. Also I love the the people who just completely mispronounce like

you know, Greek mythology kind of, you know, champions or whatever. Yeah, they have no clue how to say these. Which, to be fair, they don't fucking tell you how to say it. Yeah, I don't know how to say those. They send you the ad reads and it's broken English and you're just like, oh, fuck, okay, all right. It's very clearly like the ad read is like taken from Mandarin to English in Google Translate. Like, oh, this has got to be fucked up.

Ray Shadow Legend, best game ever. 2023. Children love game. Today, best fun times you will experience. Game win-win. Yeah. You win game now. And to world. Word for word. They're Ukraine. Are they? Yeah.

Oh, they're Ukrainian. So you're right. It's Russian-ish. Well, I think the media company is in Ukraine, but I think the original company is based out of China, I think, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, a lot of those. That was the funniest part because, Jake, I know you know about this fucking grind set. As soon as the Ukrainian-Russia war popped off, a lot of those people dropped off the fucking map. Yep. It was wild. They were just like...

Excuse me, friend. I'm sorry. I know we have business dealing, but office building currently being shelled. Our attorney speaks up, too. Our attorney's over there, by the way. Jake's very good at ad reads. He got some ad reads down pat. That's what I love most is you can just belt them off because you've done all the ad reads for how long?

Yeah, y'all's podcast ads are so easy because you could read. Yeah, literally. You're just allowed to just read it. Hi, guys. Welcome to... I try not to. That's so nice. Or we'll put in Henry Cavill or Ryan Reynolds and I'll just have his lips move over it. When do we get to do ads? Whenever you want. I feel like this is really shitty to ask.

I, yes, anytime. I always feel so bad to make my friends like, even though you're partners. I'm like, man, I can't ask them. They're probably busy today. I'll do everything. That's my dumb mind. So I'm like, I'll just do it real quick. It's fucking fine. They know that. Yeah. I'm like, it's okay. I got to do this. I'll get the lighting all good. But that's what we use. Go donut.

I'm sorry. Use code unsubscribe. Why don't you let us do ads? Use code donut. Right there, Brandon. That reason right there is understandable. Have a nice day.

Okay, so it's 2024. We're about to go in there. I want to know demos. Big fucking... First off, Happy New Year's, by the way. If you didn't know, this is the New Year's episode. We're drinking. We're celebrating. We might do a shot if the guys are down for a New Year's shot. Oh, dear. Okay. Oh, snap!

Jake, God, you're beautiful. Our lawyer is prepping the shot. Is he a lawyer? Why do I keep saying that? He's a lawyer. He's an actual lawyer. He actually is a lawyer. I didn't know this. I need to talk to you after this podcast, Jake. Actually, Jake, me too. Jake, I might need to talk to you. I'm in trouble, Jake. I did a thing this morning with Brandon. Papa, don't preach. I'm in trouble, D. I'm like, wait, what? Is this serious right now?

But for 2024, happy New Year's, everyone out there. We love you. What are your big resolutions this year? Oh, resolutions? Yeah. Okay. We got to touch base on them. I'm going to quit drinking right after that shot. Just kidding. I'm not. Okay. I won't either. It's okay. I know.

You're like, this podcast needs to succeed. You're not drinking. You're not going to stop drinking. Another decade before you're like, this is a problem. And then you're good. Yeah, probably. I don't have any resolutions. Do you all have resolutions?

I'm just trying to do one try. I never do anything. I'm pretty good. I'm a good boy. You're the most wholesome family, everything. You're the one. That's just what it looks like on the internet. I know. No, to be fair in our friend group, like you kind of have your shit. Oh yeah, compared to you guys. Oh man, I'm an angel. That's true.

I mean, honestly, fair. Yeah. We're like, how does he hang out with us? Yeah. Yeah. I feel bad about some of the things I do in my life until I hang out with you guys. I'm like, oh man, I'm doing great. You're like, those guys are okay. I'm fine in life. I can do whatever.

I will get by. You have none, though? You're not like, hey, or a big project or something you're excited for? I mean, goals. I got goals, yeah. I mean, it's the resort. Like, I want to get it open. Like, not like open-open, but like soft-open, you know, where we have, like, people there often, which we kind of did with the range day. That was our first thing, and great success. But, yeah, I want to have, like, regular people coming not to shoot guns, you know? So that's the real big goal in 2024. That's scary, dude. Yeah.

We're going to open a little RV park so people can come camp by the river and stuff. It should be cool. The river is beautiful down there. Yeah, it's super pretty. Did Heather go out there this week? She had texted me. She might go out there. I think her and Caleb are going to go out there and do something. Do something. Was it today? Was it? Might be. Her and Caleb and somebody else. I don't remember what she said. But yeah, she took a couple of her girlfriends out there. Yeah, they went out there. Yeah. And it's cool. I love that y'all want to do that. That's awesome. Yeah, everyone wants to hang out there. What do we want to shoot? Oh, dear. Oh, dear.

- Not vodka. - Nine mil, five, five, six, what are we thinking? How do we end it? - Nine mil. - I love actually, all my friends can feel like this. I'm like, they're-- - Yeah. - Everyone's caring, even around each other. - What are we thinking, whiskeys? - It's up to you, buddy. - Up to you. - I will let Eli bring us in. - What does our guest want? - Whiskey or tequila, not vodka. That'll work.

Why was it? Who put the tequila by me? Is that brand new? Jake, did you do that? Racist. Tequila is from agave. So I would love to see some Japanese tequila one day. Get over here, show. You're drinking too. Hibiki. That's what I was thinking. What? Hibiki. What is that? Japanese whiskey. Bam! Is that the official glass right here? I do. You see that? Get over here, show! Do you want one?

Get over here. You don't want to do it on camera? You're part of the team show. And G-Van. Fucking all these fine people over here. G-Van's been doing shots behind the editing computer this entire time. We'll say something we're happy for this year. Boom. And everyone can think of something.

There we go. Now we have a full team. We got beautiful people around. I just want to say thank you. All you amazing humans out there that are watching, supporting each and every one of us. We truly appreciate it from the bottom of our hearts. Make sure 2023 awesome year and next year 2024 is going to be even more amazing. I promise that and continue to crush your own goals. Don't hold back. Don't be afraid of shit. Get rid of that safety net at the bottom of your life. Just

Fucking go. That's all it takes is just trying in life. Don't worry about the bad shit that can happen. You can push through that. Don't point at me when you say bad shit. That just really makes me feel uncomfortable. The bad shit, like Brandon. Yes, like this. Vote early, vote often. But cheers. Happy New Year's, you beautiful sons of bitches out there.

From the entire Unsubtive and G-Van, you're here too, we love you. Cody, get in here. I didn't get to tap you. Tequila. Oh yeah. That was actually really good. That was real good. Brandon, you sippin'? I'm sippin'. Way to call me out, bud. You know, you said, uh, yeah, I just want everybody to know, Brandon did not take that. So he actually doesn't want to have a good 2024. You said, uh, you know, we had a great 2023. And you're right, like, I feel like all four of us freaking killed 2023.

and especially this podcast, I just want to say I'm really proud of you boys because how

Y'all started this a couple years ago? Yeah, two and a half, it's that. And I feel like that's when a bunch of podcasts were all starting up, and the market was very flooded, which it probably still is, but yeah, you guys are killing it. I mean, I just looked at your views today, and it's like insane. So I'm actually really proud of you. I'm proud to know you guys, proud to be friends with you guys. This podcast is amazing and has gone further than I ever expected it would.

Not because I don't think y'all are great, but just because it's hard. And that quickly to grow this fast, it's pretty awesome. Good job, boys. I appreciate it. Well, you sweet man. Nick to Mr. Fat Electrician, even though his episodes pass mine up as the top ones on Unsub, but it's fine. Whatever. Fuck that guy. He sucks. I appreciate the Unsub audience for taking me in as one of your own, even though I was not one of the original members. I still appreciate you guys.

You've been on a ton of episodes, though, so you basically are. A ton. You know, I basically built on sub. Brandon's been on like 20% of unsub. When did you break down the episode count? I was sitting in the cuck chair for a while. It was a long con. I just, you know, it was a long time coming.

When I was on the first one, I was on number 10 or something? Oh, it was like, wait. Okay, y'all have been doing it for a bit. Okay, cool. I don't remember. We were still getting shit together. I think we're technically our first guest, though. Really? What number-ish are you on now? 138. What number are we on? I was thinking last year with the squeaky chair.

When I broke that chair. Broke the chair as I was sitting in it. Yes. Was that the last episode? I think it was. That was Christmas. It was, yeah, Christmas. That was Christmas. And his chair was like wimpy the whole time at the end of the episode. I stood up and smashed it. Wasn't that? Yeah. I was wearing my Christmas thing. We cut the sleeves off of it. My sweater. I thought the Christmas one was with. It was with Kentucky. Was he there too?

I don't think so. Oh, well then I'm confused then. I'm so confused. Were you on the Christmas episode or the Kentucky episode? Yeah, I thought so. So Kentucky wasn't on the Christmas episode. Okay, so that was just... He must not have been. I was thinking he was, but I think, yeah, it was Brandon. And I broke Brandon's chair. Yeah, yeah, okay. Kentucky was 100? Yeah, that's it. And Brandon and I were Christmas and we smashed that chair. I forgot about that. Yeah, you were like fucking kicking these chairs. Because you legitimately did break that chair when I was sitting in it.

We found out why this week Jake fixed it. He decided to dad mode. Yeah. Just screwing up. Our attorney fixed the chair. So that's what we pay him for. Not an attorney. We paid him $300 an hour to fix that chair. Friend, attorney, handyman, farmer, dad. We will miss you, Jake. You're an amazing human. Jesus Christ. That was a eulogy. Yeah. Wait, what's going to happen to him? What's going to happen to the goat? Is he okay? Yeah.

Oh, we love Jake. Have you ever seen that meme where it's like the Jurassic Park? It's like the little girl. It's like your first deployment to Iraq. What's going to happen to the goat? Oh, God. No, I've never seen that. Speaking of, thank you guys so much for not smoking yourself this holiday season. That's the best thing we've ever heard. That was a weird way to say it. Hey, guys, I know a lot of you wanted to. I just want to thank you for not doing it.

Your message from Cody Donut. Everybody goes through their own holiday funk and everybody goes through their own shit, but we appreciate you guys for staying here with us because we appreciate you guys for an audience. We wouldn't be here without you guys. Absolutely. Legitimately, thank you. Go on, Bill. No, no, no. We had that good holiday episode. We had Bill and Tim Kennedy on.

like Goldberg and Tim Kennedy. And that was a good episode. And I've gotten many emails myself saying like, Hey, you helped me through this holiday season. I'm sure unsubscribe email, like got a bunch of stuff saying, thank you for this holiday season. Like, thank you for getting me through that. And like, we appreciate you guys. That was awesome. Well, and it's like to piggyback off of that is Cody's Brandon, even Matt, they,

they're not making that shit up. One of our happiest moments, and we have text to prove it, is that back and forth where it's like, holy shit.

Look at these positive messages we're getting from all you amazing humans out there that are struggling or going through your trials and tribulations, especially during the holiday. Why did you say even Matt? I was thinking that. You kill kittens. Even some people like Matt. You're like, I don't care about humans. Even some people are changed by Matt. You're one of my favorite. I think you're...

I'll get I will jerk you off in a second. Thanks. It is. Let me scoot out of the way. Get out of my way. But it is. We are so thankful and so happy about those messages we get because it means we're leaving a message out there or having a positive outcome, whatever you want to say. And all you. It's what makes us happy. We're like, hey, we we help somebody out there.

That at the end of the day, all we want to do is make somebody laugh, make somebody smile. Net positive. Net positive. Overall net positive. Yeah. We'll screenshot like a particularly heartfelt comment or something and spread it to the group chat. Like, Hey, we stopped somebody from Ryan Reynolds in themselves. That's fucking rad. Actually, if you want proof of that, let me go to yesterday. Photos, dude, I do it like, Hey, Eli, this is from a Joel. I'm sorry, Joel. If, if you didn't want your name, let's,

Yeah. I won't say his last name. He'll be fine. Uh, my little brother, John, uh, was murdered last night. So his brother was literally just killed. He, uh, he saved my life twice. My heart feels like it's been ripped out of my chest, but I wanted to just say thank you to all you and the guys for bringing some light into our lives. Hand,

Him and I shared laughs watching unsubscribe. My struggles with PTSD and autism have something, uh, that you guys have helped me with and he also helped, but I just wanted to say thank you for helping us and sharing memories together. I wish you all the best and you, I wish you and all the guys the best. Thank you again. Your beacon of humanity. Uh, you're a beacon of humanity, brother. I don't know if it means much, but, uh, coming from a stranger, but we love you. So,

So Joel does it. And I think that tells Joel, Joel, you know, that means it means something to you. You screenshot it in your phone. We get those kind of messages. Thank you. Exactly. It's a screenshot. And we save those because that means that much to us. We're like, holy shit, that is the goal for all of us at the end of the day. Leaving a positive message, like always at the end of the day. That's what I care for most. Yeah.

Yeah, it's fun to do fun things. It's fun to make money, but it's also really cool to get that kind of stuff. And I learned that from all you guys. I will say from like...

And starting in this from Freddie Corridor, Digital, Jake, all these individuals, watching you all be so humble and appreciative of the audience is my biggest takeaway from every one of you. I'm like, fuck yeah, this is what you need to do at the end of the day. It's not about yourself. It's not about any of that shit. It is about the audience and what they do and how they support you and then how you can support them back.

Well, I think everybody's seen dark times. Everybody's seen suffering in their friends and family, close friends and family. And you had that one little thing that brought you happiness, light, whether it was Unsub Podcast or some other YouTube channel, some TV show, whatever, where you could like

Turn your brain off and just have fun for a second and get out of your dark world. Something like Demolition Ranch, Matt Carrick. Yeah, youtube.com slash demolition ranch will really help you. No, but you have that one thing that makes a difference, and it is like everybody's been in that dark, dark place where someone's sick or whatever, but you can get away, get that 15 minutes of just happiness for a second. It means a ton. That's cool. It's a world of difference. It's wild to be on the other side of it, too. Yeah. It's wild to have...

In the past, been in places where you're in a very fucking dark place and you see entertainment comedy somewhere like from creators online and then be on the other end of that where like you're providing that for other people. It's a bizarre feeling, but it's really cool. And that's one of the reasons why I'm really happy to go into 2024 with all the people here at this table. Even if you're not, you know,

They didn't even ask me. Fuck that guy. Well, this is like, as I said before, it is you guys wore that the exact same thing where it's like, oh, hey, they're motivated no matter what. Oh, hey, they're always positive. Oh, hey, like they use dark humor, jokes, whatever to push their comedy and then also make other people laugh.

You take away from the, like, you don't have the dark comedy we have, but your family friendliness and everything. You're not on yours and be like, hey, welcome to Demo Ranch. Come. I'd be like, what the fuck? We tried to do that for a while. It wasn't well received. Never took it. Never took. Never took. Never took.

But it's awesome. His full-time job is shooting down unsubscribed podcast merch ideas. Yeah, they're like, can we just put cum on a shirt? I'm like, no, that'll never sell. And then you effers buy it. And then we sent you the, it's like, what about cum-alisha? And you're like, no. Oh, yeah, that's a real one. They were like, can we do cum-alisha? And I was like, no, you assholes. What is wrong with y'all? Because we took dim-alisha and just X'd. We put the circle on dim-alisha.

Dimm. That was a donut idea. Do they know we go through a merch with him? Oh yeah, Bunker, all our merch is done through Mr. Demo. That's true, and I appreciate it. We love it. Bunker branding might be the reason Tony Gonzalez doesn't get re-elected. You getting some good sales through there? Yeah. Hey Tony, let me know if you want us to do your merch.

It's all right. You motherfucker. By the time he sees this podcast, it won't be worth it. Brandon stands up and smashes my chair. The fight begins again. Any big content coming up this year that you're super excited for? All right, here's one big thing that I haven't figured out how to make possible yet, but I really want to make it happen. Where the brain trust go. We need... So we have another range day, another content creator range day with some other huge names coming up in...

Late March. Late March. We shot a Hummer H1 Alpha at the last one. I want to find a Tesla Cybertruck so bad to destroy at the next one. But I don't know how to make that happen. So me and Cody are both on the list.

We might have one by then. Let's get sponsors and let's not even make money. Let's just spend all of our sponsor money on getting a Cybertruck. Can we do that? We just need Elon. We might have one by then. Me and Cody, we're actually pretty early on the list for Cybertruck pre-orders. We just need Elon to come out to one of our range days because he's right down the road. He's two hours away. This is a clip. Less than two hours.

that we push on our reels. What do you want to tell Elon? Elon, first of all, big fan, long-time viewer, first-time caller. I appreciate what you've done with Twitter, but we're trying to push a Cybertruck

range day as far as you know destroying one of your beautiful creations that you've you've made so how many eyeballs will get on this probably about trillion least half a billion trillions do that and that's what what's crazy is half a billion is on the or half a billion is still on the low that's very realistic yeah i'm like i'm being very real with half a billion i know that's what's fucking crazy

Half a billion is a very... We're right outside of San Antonio. Super easy for you to get to. We come shoot a Cybertruck at the next range day. Cody, pitch? We'll kill the fuck out of it. The biggest gun tubers in the game. Let's do it. Your fellow autists want to destroy a Cybertruck. Come on, man. I've been standing up for you on Twitter for years now. Like, let us kill something. And that thing should be a Cybertruck.

And my Cybertruck will be wrapped like a Halo Warthog because that's what I've always wanted since day one. I'm so excited for that. It'll look so fucking good. March 28th. You've seen those videos, right? March 28th. Cybertruck. San Antonio, Texas. Let's go. Yep. In downtown San Antonio, Texas. Right next to the Alamo. March 28th. Alamo 2.0, bitches. We just opened up on a fucking Cybertruck right by the river walk.

What do you mean we don't got permits? We could pull some strings and make that happen. I know some guys. God, you're not kidding. That will be fucking dope. That's rated for .45 and lower? Yeah, I think all pistol calibers. So .45 is not that good.

It's really not that bad. 45 is the easiest bullet to stop. 10 mil. Because it's like, what, fucking like 900 feet per second? Well, it's like a 9 will go through something that a 45 will be stopped by. It's big and slow. That's the easiest to stop. That's why it was made for suppression. So you could suppress it extremely. Well, that's back before armor was invented. Yeah. And you did a great job. Yeah, body armor, like nobody gave a fuck. A flak jacket will stop a 45 ACP.

Do they have the higher speed rounds? This actually leads into the next question. 45 supers? Firearms. Yeah, like the higher grain or lower grain. I bought some 45 supers, which are actually a thicker walled,

Case? You ever heard of that? No. So like an HK USP and a Mark 23, like they're rated for higher pressure than a 45 ACP. They're rated for 45 super, which would explode in 1911. I bought some, but I was going to make a video and it was just kind of too boring. So I didn't do it, but haven't even shot them yet. But I have that Mark 23 like you do. And I want to shoot some 45 supers out of it just to kind of see how it shoots. 45 super will shoot out of anything chambered in 45 ACP.

Yeah, but it would explode. No, if it's rated for it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the same outside dimensions, but it's got a thicker walled case and it's got more powder, so higher pressure. How fast is it? I don't know. I have a chronograph. I just haven't messed with it at all. Because most people don't know, like, 45 is pretty fucking weak. Yeah. It's literally subsonic out the fucking gate. It is. Yeah. I'll look it up. You know what? I got this for you.

Let's do this. You've got your nightmare brick in your pocket. Let's see what 45 Supers do. I want to know how fast those travel. Now, 45, why are you saying the Mark 23? Mark 23 went through a very rigorous test in order to be adopted by the Navy SEALs. What's crazy is that's from the 90s. No, it has to shoot, I want to say, 30,000 rounds and still maintain it. 45 Supers are supersonic.

That's fucking crazy. 1,300, 1,200, 1,100 feet per second. Well, okay. Well, that's not crazy. It's barely supersonic. Yeah, barely. But 1,300 is going to fucking. But that's also like 1,300 with a jacket at hollow point.

Yeah. That cavity is going to be big. Yeah. So what is a normal .45? It's like 900? Yep. 950, something like that. So this is a 230-grain .45 Supergo, 1,100 feet per second. 185-grain, 1,300 feet per second. They're moving. It's cooking. Now you have to find the gun. Mark 23, I think they went through like 20,000 or 30,000 rounds during their...

a test period in order to hit that combat weapon. And then it had to maintain a one or two MOA for that test. They had like one or two MOA out of a pistol? Yeah. Did they like have it fixed? No, it was a three. Sorry. It was a three MOA. I was like, there's no way. But that's after the 15 or 30,000 round test. So it had to do all of that and maintain its MOA at the end of it. They pushed that pistol forward.

Like still was it like fixtured on that on the task? Had to be. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. The cyber truck get hit like today. There was a wreck with a cyber truck earlier today on Twitter. Yeah. Like this car got fucking totaled, but the cyber truck just sitting there. Yeah. Like the fender was like a little wonky. Are they super heavy?

Yeah. Are they like 5,000 pounds or something? Because you've got a big-ass battery. Battery in their trucks. Plus, it's a different design philosophy because instead of an endoskeleton, you've got an exoskeleton. Oh, really? So they're structural on the exoskeleton, huh? Yeah. Huh. Yeah, but this car fucking hit it and got totaled. It's like in a ditch. And the Cybertruck had just a little bit of wonkiness on the side. It could still drive. It could still drive out of there.

It was wild. Just got really fucked up. Yeah. Yes, that's as it should be. Because they have an engine on each wheel. I want to... Or, sorry, a battery. Motor. Motor on each wheel. Then nothing on the interior but the exterior is reinforced. They have four motors? Like...

Well, did you see what it beat with the Raptor video? If you want how fucking fast. The Porsche one? It's a. Oh, it's not towing a Porsche, right? Yeah. In the dirt, and it beat a fucking Raptor on the road. It was like it beat a Porsche while towing a Porsche. That's right, yeah. Yeah. In the dirt. But. They did it on the quarter mile. That was a base. In the dirt. It was a base model Porsche. Yep. Well, yeah. Well, it's pulling a base model Porsche.

No, so there's another one he's talking about. I haven't seen that one. It was towing a Porsche, and it raced the Porsche. Oh, see, I haven't seen that one. And it beat it, but it was like a base model Porsche. So, you know, I don't know, 300 horsepower, 350 horsepower or something. 420. But still fast. Like, it's a Porsche. Well, it beat the Raptor pulling a Porsche in the dirt on a quarter mile. No shit. Did you see that one? That's pretty crazy. No, I did not. The Raptor was on tarmac. Oh, God. The...

The Cybertruck was in dirt pulling a trailer with a Porsche, and it beat it in a quarter mile. See, that's independent testing. That's always what I loved about the Teslas is because they have such a low center of gravity. I will not disclose the speed that I was going, but driving your plaid, A, I got it to a speed that gave me anxiety, and B, when I was pulling a corner on your Tesla...

Because it had such a fucking low center of gravity. It just like it freaked me out. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like you're about to slide or roll or something. And that thing just keeps going. Yeah. It just hit it. The thing was gnarly. I had it under 100% control the entire time. And that freaked me out given the speed I was doing for the turn I was doing. It was weird. Can I have a mango? Do you miss it? You want a mango? Yeah. I want a mango.

Do you miss your plaid? I miss my Tesla S plaid more than I've ever missed a car. Are you serious? I thought you were so bored with it when you got rid of it. I thought I was too, but now that I'm sitting in San Antonio traffic, it's a car that will do completely full functional auto driving. It's like sitting in San Antonio traffic, I could just turn the auto driving on. Sorry, this is horrible, but I would like it.

You get to work while you drive and it's the most amazing guy. I get to bully Keith Oberman on Twitter. Yeah, I could text on my phone and just like keep a finger. I'm driving. And it would go through traffic. But if I wanted it to do 150 miles an hour and handle perfectly, it was like such a perfect car.

One of the few cars that terrified me. Yeah, yeah. Eli drove it a couple times. That thing was fucking rad. I rode in it and got nauseated because it was so fast. I ripped. They're nuts. How hard did you get? So I didn't go. I was just accelerating fast. And then one of my favorite stories is driving Savannah's, that old Honda, whatever, that piece of shit blue one she had. It was a very nice car. It was just...

It's like 140 horsepower, and we're going through corners. And you remember I was like right on your bumper? I got a text like, we're going through like these chicanes, and I'm just like...

Just yawning through this piece of shit that she's driving. Very nice car. Just electric and very family sedan, 100-something horsepower. I'm just right on the back of Cody's Tesla. Driving, he's like, how do you keep up with me in these corners? That was my Hellcat at the time, wasn't it? Oh, yeah. Wasn't it a Hellcat? I was driving an 800-horsepower Hellcat at the time. 120 horsepower. And he weighed 90,000 pounds.

Yeah, Eli is driving the electric car, and it was like only 200 horsepower, 300 horsepower or something. Max 200. Yeah, and I'm driving an 800 horsepower fucking Hellcat, like super stock, and he kept on my ass the whole time. Because of the sad system? But the fucking, dude, the Tesla S Plaid, like it...

It can't compare to anything. That thing ripped. That was the first vehicle I was like, oh, this is like driving any car. That was the first car I remember going full electric. Those are like 2.90 to 60 or something, right? No, no, no. The Plaid was 1.8 or 2.2. It was like 1.8. Have you seen the stats on the new Roadster? The Tesla Roadster? I thought the Roadsters were like 1.9.

It was 0 to 100 in 1.9. 0 to 60. I'm looking right now. It's fucking stupid. So the plaid is 1.9 seconds. Jeez. That hurts. That is terrifying. Did you drive that at all? No, I didn't drive it. You sold it before I drove it. I just rode in it. It was the first car that felt like a roller coaster. Like, that is the best way to explain it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It is. I explained it to my dad the other day. It's totally quiet. That exact same way of like, dude, like,

- Putting your foot to the floor on the Model S Plaid felt like you're in the shoot of like the Hulk roller coaster. And there's no noise. You just hear the tires. Like what? - And you're going to a hundred miles an hour. Cause we got it. I think I got zero to a hundred miles an hour is, was it like zero to 150 miles an hour is nine seconds. - That's crazy.

That is old Lamborghini times. That's like 2010 Lamborghini times, actually. I've driven Ferraris, Lamborghinis, whatever. The Model S Plaid was the only car that's ever made me uncomfortable with the acceleration. Yeah. I mean, I was genuinely afraid. That's insane. It was pretty cool. I want another one so bad. I heard they're cheaper now.

They're, like, coming down in price. Yeah. Electric. You don't see. What's a gun you have coming up in the future? I just watched. I don't know. You guys have probably watched it. Did you watch the 545, the AK Grantham's just dead? Oh, the AN-94? Bro! That motherfucker. Oh!

You don't have one of those yet? Oh, you... Hey, shut up. Dude, that was... Oh, my God. You let Grantham beat you? So, funny enough, one of the sponsors... I don't know if they want to talk about it, whatever. One of the sponsors of the range day told me that they were buying out an old collection that included an AN-94. How does it work?

Hyper burst and Brandon. How does it shoot the first two rounds so fast? I didn't watch Grantham's video. I will tism out for you. Okay, just do it like a 10% tism. No, I'll do it in a sec. No, this is a podcast. Do 100% tism. We'll all put on our special hats and then go. Well, they told me they had one. First of all, there's two of these I know of that are legally imported in this fucking country. Oh, really? They're that rare? Literally two. Okay. Okay.

They asked me if I wanted to do a video with one. I'm like, yes, absolutely. I fucking want to do a video with one. They're like, okay, well, that's cool. Um,

Just so you know, it's currently in Idaho. I'm like, you motherfucker! You fucking cocksucker! I know where it's going. Immediately. You didn't even... As soon as I heard Idaho, I'm like, you motherfucker! He's on the phone texting. No, he's been trying to hunt this gun down for a while. Like, obviously, it's such a fucking cool gun. It's the rarest gun in the world, right? It's one of the rarest military guns in the world. So how does it pop up?

So... This is so fucking dope. Brandon actually tried to work on this. This gun shoots two rounds really fast. Different gun, actually. It shoots two rounds really fast, and then it just goes full auto after that. We were talking about a different style of gun. We were talking about the AK-107, which is like a counterbalance system. So the AN-94 is not counterbalanced technically. What it is, is it's like a gun that's on a carriage to recoil...

- Compensate for the recoil. - Oh no, but the entire gun travels backward a few inches. - For that first recoil. - Yeah, as a second round is being preloaded to fire. - In the same chamber though. - Yeah, same chamber. - Okay. So it kicks it out, shoves another one in as the whole gun's coming back and then fires another one at the back position? - Yes. - Crazy. - So as the gun is recoiling for the first time, as you're feeling the recoil of the first round,

you're getting two rounds worth of recoil. Crazy. So it's like the, the, I believe the gun gets like 700 rounds a minute, but the first hyper burst recoil is 1800. Yeah. Like a ridiculous amount. How do they engineer that?

It's retarded. Do they still use that counter clock mechanism with it? Or is it the barrel? Because it is like the barrel fires and then fires here. So it fires. The barrel's on a slide system at the front. No, the entire weapon is. Oh, so you did not know that. I believe it was the Akaban, I think, the weapon system, like that weapon trials. Yeah, they did everything on like a pulley system.

No shit. To try to accelerate the action of the weapon to...

basically eject and rechamber a new round and then fire it as fast as possible. So they got it up to like 1800 rounds a minute. It's fucking stupid. That is like full auto Glock speed. It is, that is retarded for a lockup caliber. Did you see how fast, I mean, if you didn't watch it, he did the bill drill, which he said with an M4, he can get barely subsonic or it's barely sub second. And then usually it's like,

A good bill drills under two seconds, if I remember right. And he did it. Six rounds on target. Yeah. Six rounds, a zone, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. At three. Yeah. This means he only has to pull the trigger three times though. So Mike was like, Hey, just fucking hammer that bitch. Just as fast as you can. He did the bill drill in 0.8 seconds. Jeez. Cause it was like, and they're just,

That gun? Yeah. They're fucking right there. They're touching. That's what's crazy. So it's like before the gun can even move, it's already fired another gun, another bullet. Yes. And that's what they were noticing is like no matter what. You'd hit with two bullets. That second round is always less than an inch within the first round. Can't stitch that up. That's such army fucking mentality is like anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice.

And that gun, they do it because they did that. And then when you hold it down, as you were saying, it turns into full auto. Yeah. And then Mike and them were like, wait. And they just held it down. And it's 545? Yep. Okay. That's a nasty. That was one of the, like, I watched that video because I love that. And they never made them in 7.62? No. It was a military prototype that was supposed to replace the AK-74. It just never happened.

And my god, I just I want to get my hands off that so bad. Are you going to make one? I think it's good. No, I'm not gonna make one No, god. No, there's so much about that gun that is so fucking hard to replicate, but I think I will get my hands on it What you're you're the autistic one in this realm? What are there pre-bands? Sorry to interrupt you. No, yeah, are there rebands? There is nothing in the United States like that No, like there's there's a tumor again to my knowledge to legally that I've ever been here. Hmm

And yeah, there's no transferables. That's fucking insane to me. So what is the mechanic that makes it possible to do that?

It's the pulley system. Yeah, it's fucking crazy. There's actually cables and pulleys? It's literally a pulley thing. I'll have to dive into it. I've never seen a gun like that. It's been years since I dove into it. I'll have to show you something. I need to watch that video. What's that guy's name? Grand? G? Grandies? Grandies? I'll look him up. I'll search him up. Grand toes or something? I'll Google that guy. Is that the guy that put the thumb in it? Yes.

Yeah, I know. I've seen him. He put a Garanth on me. Yeah. Put a Garanth on me. I think I'm subscribed. Just fucking up everyone's calls. God damn it. Speaking of fucking Glock died. Yeah, Gaston. Yeah, Gaston died. We're getting a new kitten. I think we're going to name him Gaston. Wait, what? Did you see that? No, I don't know. Did you know this news? No. Gaston Glock died. Yeah.

The creator of the Glock just passed away the other day. Are they going to have changes? I read, weirdly enough, yesterday, literally yesterday, I read a new article about, like, hey, they're changing up the Glock on what new weapon platforms they're going to be coming out for. Does he still have any ownership in the company, I wonder? Oh, yeah. Did he? Oh, yeah. Horse cum. Who am I going to buy my horse cum from? Yeah.

I don't know who I'm going to get my horse cum from anymore. Oh, yeah, that was it. I forgot about that. Yep, never mind. So horse cum. Did you not know this? No, I don't know what you're talking about. Do you want to explain horse cum? So Dr. Veterinarian. So if you're going through a Glock magazine, not an actual bullet magazine, if you're going through one of their reader manuals, it's like at the end page, it's like we can sell you horse cum.

- 'Cause Glock had a huge equine facility. - Oh, okay. - So they bought and sold race horses and stuff like that. So they, as all of them do, sold horse cum for race horses and stuff. - I've actually dealt in horse semen quite a bit. I had a job-- - What's the difference between horse semen and horse cum? - We just don't say cum in the industry.

But I had a job before vet school where I worked in a lab. Because it's worth a ton of money. No, I'm saying, why don't you say comp? Oh, it's frowned upon. Okay, this is $3,000 a comp and this is $8,000. People pay a lot of money for a tiny little vial of that and you freeze it in liquid nitrogen and you ship it all over the U.S. I worked in a lab doing that.

Wait, would you J-O the horses? No. I guess someone... I mean, yeah. No, actually, veterinarians do. I've watched it happen. It's real weird. The she thing? Yeah. It's called an artificial vagina.

And you bring a stallion into an artificial mare, which is just a big thing he mounts. Wait, do horses not know fake ones? They get excited over anything. Is it just a hole? Or is there a sense off of them? Well, no, it's like a horse-shaped thing that they jump up on the back of. And then you just put the artificial vagina around the horse.

Three foot long erection. We got a breakdown. Is there any scent or anything coming off the fake thing? I don't remember how. I think they have a mare who is in heat in the building and that's enough to get the horse super excited. No shit. I can't remember. I watched it in vet school once. We had a theriogenology class which is about that. Theriogenology I think.

I've had a white claw or two. No, I mean, you sound smart. But like they ask us, they're like, anyone want to collect the horse? And I'm like, heck no. And some poor little vet student had to go up there. I mean, their penises are large. I like you whispered penis on me.

Horse dicks are huge, okay? Yeah, there we go. And you gotta go up with the artificial vagina and you gotta catch it while the horse is mid-thrust and he's up in the air too because you gotta think he's mounting this fake mare and so the horse's head is nine feet above you and he is not paying attention. He's... And you run up there trying not to get killed and get the thing around his...

His wee wee. You never saw that in Glock magazines though? I've never looked. I've never looked at a Glock magazine. Yeah, like if you go into a gun shop and they have the Glock magazines laid out and you're like flipping through them, the last page is horse cum. Sorry, horse cum. Horse cum. Imported from Austria. Because they're selling horse semen from Austria. I just think this brings like just such a new meaning to don't tell mayor.

It's true. I just...

Are these racehorses, I guess? They have to be, right? They've got to be like studs. That's the only thing that is worth something in horses. I just pictured a Glock magazine. You're like, oh, this is nice. It's like, ah! There's cum in DuPont. In DuPont. Oh, man, I need some of this. DuPont dough. That's literally anyone going through the comedy section of Spotify for podcasts. Like, oh, well, I could use a pick-me-up cum. I have a new ranch. We could start raising horses and sell their cum. Oh, that's cool.

He said come. I said it in Doom font too. But we're only going to sell it on Facebook Marketplace. We just need magazines. Facebook Marketplace couldn't afford his come. He's like, this is fucking dope. Thank you for that. I forget that I don't like coming here. But why? We get to touch everything. It's great. Okay, what is a new piece of content you're looking forward to?

This year, what is something big where you're like, fuck yeah, here is the pinnacle of what I want to do? I'm going to peak this year. No, that's pretty much it. What I've already said is getting people to actually be at the resort all the time and then the next range day, I really want to make it epic. Are you trying to get it done before, was it April 8th? Yeah, the eclipse. So that's what we're shooting for is to have it open and have guests staying at the resort April 8th.

We're not ready yet, but yeah. What happens April 8th? We have a total solar eclipse coming right over my resort. It's going to be sick. It's very rare. I've never seen one before. Ever. Have y'all? No. I've never seen one. Like the moon passed in front of the sun and we'll make it dark at three o'clock in the afternoon. It's going to be nuts. It was random enough. I texted you a partial one. In October. Yeah. Yeah. A couple months ago, there was a partial solar eclipse, which I'd never seen that either. That was neat. Yeah.

And I text you about that randomly and you're like, holy shit, we're releasing a video. It was like a couple of days or you're doing something about it right after I text you. Yeah, because it is a four minutes and 30 seconds of actual total dark darkness in the afternoon. So you know, hasn't happened here and it won't happen here again for 40 years or something like it hasn't happened much.

This is crazy. So what will happen is where Bernie just magically aligned for both. So you're getting a total eclipse that lasts for four minutes, 30 something seconds, 28 seconds. And it is a full reset on even animal cycles where... Really? Yeah, you're going to see like...

The animals naturally reset. So you'll hear crickets come out at that time. Normal daylight animals are like, oh, it's bedtime. So it's a weird reset that happens during this time. So randomly deer will just start darting in front of your tree. It's now. Y'all want to know about deer and cum also?

Yeah. So yesterday, so you want to know about deer and come the last three, no, last two years, last year and the year before we filmed just a video showing our whole, our whole arsenal. You had my, my attention. You guys were there shooting the whole arsenal. Remember two years ago, you won the 50 Cal. Yeah. So that was the first time we got, we got all the guns out.

We got all the guns out and did that that year. We did again last year. The videos do really good. So this year we're like, let's just do it again. We have new guns. So we got all the guns out yesterday and I guess it's the rut or something where deer kind of like run around horny. And so we had these two bucks chasing this one doe all around the range as we're setting up the guns and we go down the table. We're like loading all the guns. So they're loaded on the table and we go down and we spend two hours loading all these guns, which is scary because they're all just laying on the table with one in the chamber and

And then the freaking deer run down straight at- we have a lot of, you know, 40 yards of just tables with guns on it. And the deer runs straight for it and the doe jumps over the table as we all go "Ahh!" And doesn't touch a single gun and the bucks run off the other way. But we were like, why were we not filming that? We're all just sitting there loading and these doe- this doe just dives across our table.

Anyway, loaded guns, loaded guns. And I was like, what if that would have been how we got shot? Like finally something goes wrong on demolition ranch. And it was something we never would have predicted. A deer killed us. Final destination. Yeah. A deer shot me. How'd you die? I got shot by a deer. A deer jumps, hits the table. Guns start. Yeah. Cause I mean, some of them are glocks with zero safety. She could technically fire that at us.

We were trying to be so safe and this deer just jumps over all these loaded guns. It was crazy. We should kill her now. When's that video go live? Next week. Oh, you're like, hey, are you doing it better than last time? No, it's still just, it's lame. It's just all my guns, but people watch it. I don't know. Do people watch it approximately eight minutes per ad? No, they watch, yeah.

No, actually, this one, I was like, I'm bored with this because it's a boring concept. Let's shoot all the guns. But people keep wanting it. So this year, I was like, we're going to shoot them as fast as I can. And so I was going through as fast as like racing. And we did it half the time. We did less guns last year. So shit. Yeah. How many guns are you at right now? I don't know. A few hundred. I don't know. Hey, come on, ATF. Don't ask that. Who do you work for? ATF. What are you? Yeah.

No, you have like you have an of dude, your new guns. You've shown off your safe. I think it looks amazing with the lighting and everything. It's like my favorite thing. Walking. You love some good lighting. And that, as you said, was your team hated installing the lighting. Oh, yeah. It was a pain in the butt.

You have the honeycomb. Yeah, it's like every little piece was a different piece they had to install and I was glad I had someone else helping with that. It looks nice. It looks sick. Does not come connected. Good job, James. Way to go. You literally had to build it like piece by piece. It came in a box that was like this big. I'm like, but that light's like 10 feet long. How does that work? You opened up and you're like, oh, team! Instruction! I got a meeting. Good luck.

Oh, I see. That looks like a plan for other people. Guys, what are your New Year's resolutions as we close this off? Brandon, what's yours? Why are you looking at me, man? They're like, I got zero right now. The way it's looking, 2024 is going to be fucking interesting, man. I've either got... Your 2024 is going to be wild. Yeah. I may or may not be a congressman. I've got a lot of things, man, in the works that...

The vast majority of which at time of recording I can't talk about, but...

We've got a lot of irons in the fire. You do. You have like infinite irons in the fire, which is cool. That's why I like you. It's exciting. I was joking with Cody earlier. I'm like, man, whoever's writing my fucking season finale for 2024 is absolutely off their fucking rocker, but I'm here for it. Yeah, it's going to be good. It's going to be a wild year. What are you doing now? Actually, it's a great question because I don't even know. If you become congressman, how does that affect the podcast?

We'll digest this together. Not only will I... When I'm not in session, I will be spending as much time in Texas as humanly possible because I fucking hate D.C. It is crazy how much you'll have to go there.

It'll be a lot. I hate it. I really do. How often? Whenever they're in session. However, if you guys want to... So I spent some time at Congressman Gates' office. He's got his own podcast studio in his office in D.C., in the Capitol. So we can actually set up a podcast studio in D.C.

DC. Jake's saying yeah. Yeah. Is it going to be? That would be cool. That would be really rad to be able to do podcasts at basically at the Capitol for all intents and purposes. Can you still say the three letter C word you guys say a lot? Which one?

Yeah. Oh, God, yeah. Three letters. I'm like, I couldn't think of a three-letter C word that offended me. I'm like... I was so confused. I was like, what is it? I thought it was like... There's a four-letter one that people don't like, but... You love that one. Are we fucking each other in the Capitol building and filming? No, that's just for the Senate chambers. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

So you'll be doing that. It's different shit like that. I'm like, man, there's not a goddamn thing I could do that will actually be a disgrace to the office. That'll be an interesting time period for, I think, your YouTube. Because this is the first going into it where it's like, hey, YouTuber that has a very successful following in business is also congressman, also podcast, each little thing of it. And you're like, hi, got to do this on the side? Or is it going to be your main thing now?

It's going to be a little bit of both. I'm going to take it very seriously. In my eyes, it's a very serious civic duty. This is public service. Yeah, I think that's what's different about you is I can see a lot of guys doing it just because they're like, I have clout. I can get votes. But Brandon's actually seeming to take it very seriously, which is why I think you have an actual good chance to win. You're going to make a difference. You're not, as Demo's saying, it's not using it as clout. It is, hey, because you've told us multiple times, I don't think a lot of people out there, it's...

You don't look at this as something, what's this saying? It's like for anyone in office, it's not one. It's not a career. Yeah. This is not a career for me. This is just something like there's a bad vote in office. I want to take them out. Like this is, it's going to be fucking interesting because this is the first time that somebody like in my position is going to be doing this to a career politician essentially, or somebody who would be a career politician.

Yeah, and you're like, I'm stepping up to the plate just to make the changes that you feel as an individual and as a community that you represent. Like, hey, I want to do this the right way for your beliefs. Yeah, and worst case, you know, it's a real good wake-up call to somebody who's been making some questionable votes. Like, hey, you almost got your fucking career taken by a YouTuber. How does that fucking feel? Nice slap in the face. Fuck that guy. And then, Cody, what are your 2024 goals?

I have 933 videos on my main channel. I'm not going to do YouTube after next year. No, I'm going to finish out the year, maybe. But I'm done with police content. Really? I hadn't heard this.

Yeah, I'm done with police content. I watch every single one of your videos, though. I really like them. Shut up, man. What am I going to watch when I get Chick-fil-A door dashed in my house? I love watching Donuts videos. I do, too. I live for them. I'm done with it. I'm fucking done with it, dude. You have these two heroes. What are you going to do? I don't know, dude. I'm good for you. I'm at 933. I might try to finish out 1,000, but...

I'm going to be done with the main channel. Sweet. I'm proud of you. That's a cool move. I'm fucking tired of this shit, dude. How many videos do you have up, Matt? More than that because I had the Vet Ranch videos and then my vlog channel and the Demolition Ranch. I've got, I would say probably a couple thousand maybe. Jake, how many videos does he have? Yeah. He's got it.

3,000. Is that true? How do you know that? I was really curious about that too. I'm like, Jake, why the fuck do you know that? Wait, does he really know that? Oh, that's... To what?

The other thing we can't talk about right now. The other New Year's resolution we can't talk about. I have 3,000? That's crazy. You're so off. I'm quitting too. You quit today. You just announced your retirement. You're like, well, I'm done. It's fucking great. I loved it. So let's see. Yeah, I'll go Social Blade. Demolition Ranch has 668 people.

And then the vlog channel has 1,000. No, I don't have 3,000, Jake. You're crazy. Yeah, it's 2,000. I was right. Okay. Your lawyer's wrong. Jake, what the fuck? How can we trust you as our law attorney? Our bird lawyer. We can't trust you at all now. But it is hard. I've been doing it for over 10 years. Dude, you're...

I just have to keep finding more things that are interesting. And yeah, Demolition Ranch videos are not super interesting to me, which is why I'm focusing on the resort this year because it's fun and it's different. How do you get past that now where you're like, hey, this is no longer interesting or it is that struggle because it's an artist. You can't get past it. It is the hard. If you guys want to know one of the hardest thing is when you hit writer's block, creator's block or something where you're not interested anymore. And with age, it gets harder in my opinion. Yeah.

It's a fucking struggle. You're like, dope, I have a great idea. Nah, just don't even look. I'm tired, boss. I'm tired, boss. Especially if you're comfortable. If you're comfortable, it's really fucking hard. Yeah, I did it when I was hungry. I was ready to work 80 hours a week, and now I'm like,

I'm bored with that. I want to, I want to try something new. I want to do the resort. Cause it's, it's, that's challenging to me. The demolition ranch videos are not challenging. And so I put, you can tell, I put less effort into them. It's obvious. No, but I don't know if it, it, it like, it's the same for you, but like I missed the me when I was broke. Yeah. It's, that was a cool, that was a cool time.

That really kind of hurts me to say. Hard worker, you know? Yeah. Hungry you. Which I am broke again. I got a big debt now at the resort, so it's fun. It lit a fire. Is that why you did it? I don't know. Well, okay, two reasons. You were like ready to end the podcast, and I'm like, well, let's talk some more. No, no, no. I'd rather it continue. So I have little kids who are going to live in my house for 10 more years. My youngest will be out of the house in 10 years.

And we've made a good amount of money and I could retire right now. Like my goal was to be able to retire by the age of 35. And so when I got to 35, I could retire. Like I was like, I could stop right now, sell everything and have passive income that would allow me to just do whatever I want.

But I still had a six-year-old kid in the house. And I was like, everything he'll remember will be dad being lazy his whole life. And so that was why I did the abandoned mansion project. Because I was like, well, let's challenge myself and work really hard. And I did for three years. And then the house was done. And I'm like, well, now I could retire again. So I bought the ranch to have a reason to leave the house and go work. And he sees me working all the time now. Yeah.

Yeah, but as soon as he leaves, I'm done. I'm retiring. But yeah, I don't know. I think if... My dad worked really hard. I watched him work really hard. And I wanted to make sure my kids don't think I'm a lazy piece of shit that doesn't work. Because they didn't see me work until 3 in the morning every night editing all those early videos because they were babies. So that's... That's one of the things. Even in my dating life, later on, it's like...

I was worried that people wouldn't see the amount of effort I put in like early on. Cause like, I remember like,

Not sleeping for two three days in a row Yeah, because I was editing videos where I was like coming up with video idea ideas like doing spreadsheets Whatever the fuck like people won't realize the amount of effort I put into this whistling diesel actually just posted a story today I think or yesterday and it was a graph that showed like all these years of like no views Yeah And it said what no one sees and then it showed one year of just crazy views and he says what everyone thinks I did you know and

And it's like, yeah, people don't see that. That's real. That's really real. That's real. I'd rather talk about, for me personally, I'll talk about that. I'll extend anything for that because that's what people don't understand. It is how much effort you put in

for years before something paid off. And it motivates all these beautiful humans out there. It's one of their favorite segments now is, hey, like this didn't come overnight for a majority. Cody, you live downstairs in your parents' basement. My mom's basement, yeah. For how long?

Fucking two years. And that's while doing police stuff? Yeah, while doing the police thing. Yeah. And then it started popping off all of a sudden. But for two years, I was streaming and making YouTube videos at the same time. And it was fucking, it was, wow, shit, not even 12 hours. It was like 18 hours a day. You were like a zombie probably. Yeah, it was bad. Yeah.

But you came out like, I remember when you started, dude, we started talking when Cody was like 20,000 YouTube, I want to say, give or take. Yeah, it was like 2016 we started talking. Yeah. No shit. Oh yeah, I've known Cody for a long time. Fucking hell.

I started making Demolish Ranch videos in vet school and I thought maybe it would go somewhere. I wasn't I was making like 50 bucks a month. And so instead of studying for my vet school board exams, my fourth year, I was just out in the woods making videos because I was like so excited about it.

and I failed my veterinary board exams. No shit. You failed the first set? Yeah. And so I had to wait another like month and a half while all my other friends went and got their real jobs as veterinarians. And I couldn't work yet because I didn't have a license. And so then I stopped doing YouTube for, it was actually like, it was maybe like three months actually. I stopped doing YouTube for like three months and just studied for the board exams and passed it the second time. But yeah, I freaking failed veterinary board exams because I thought YouTube was cool.

And you didn't do it for probably in your head. It wasn't, especially at that time. I will say at that time you weren't like, I'm doing it for the money. No, it was, it was, it was fun. I did it. I was doing it for money, but not money, money. I was doing it for enough money to pay for ammo. Yeah. I just wanted free ammo. I thought that'd be awesome. It's like back in the day, YouTube didn't pay out. Like that wasn't a career. No.

And it wasn't cool. No. Nobody thought of YouTube as a school guy. I didn't tell any of my friends because they all would have thought I was a loser. Yep. You're doing YouTube. You're a piece of shit. Yeah. He's a nerd. All my cop friends thought. They're like, oh, you're going to do YouTube? You're going to leave the force and do this? And everyone's like, that's not going to happen. That's not going to work. You're an idiot. Yeah.

Well, it's getting doubted. And even you, you started, a lot of people might not realize, Cody didn't start as police content. You were Minecraft. You were video game. I didn't know that. Really? Yeah, dude. You were doing Rainbow Six. Yeah, I was doing Rainbow Six, Minecraft. I didn't know that. I was all your first, how many videos before you did a cop video? It's actually an interesting story because it was that hard pivot because it was the pivot of like,

Like, views, no views. You're like, okay, this is my content from now on. Yeah, it was like 20 videos before I was like, hey, this guy fucked up in this one thing on cops, so I should probably tell the media that they suck. But that was genuinely like a canon event kind of thing.

Where the media was getting it wrong enough that you just decided, hey, I really need to tell the real story on this. Yeah, absolutely. And it launched your entire career. Yeah, yeah, for sure. What was that first one that you did? Keith Scott. I really liked that because it was messing with. You were telling a story and you're like, yeah, it's just super important to me.

I was like, Cody's eyes are all fucked up right now. No, it was, if you guys want to get into it, it was Keith Scott, 20, I think it was 2016. Fucking, he, it was this guy and he had a gun and he started to raise it towards police and they shot him and they killed him and

And the media was like, oh my God, they killed an unarmed man, an unarmed black man, blah, blah, blah. And they did all that shit. And there were riots in Charlotte, North Carolina, near where I lived. And the riots caused $3 million worth of damage to the city.

And I was like, no, that's not what happened. I'm like, no, that's not the thing. I saw it on video, and no one was seeing that. And I made a video saying, look, this dude had a gun. He was raising it towards police. What are you talking about? And that's where my first video came from that blew up. And it got 200,000 views. I was like, shit, maybe I should keep doing this. You're like, hey, okay, here it is. And so for Brandon, what was your...

You wore the slow roll because I truly appreciated your climb in the YouTube space because you didn't change. You're like, hey, I'm the AK guy. I'm going to break down this stuff. And then you expand and like a lot of individuals do. Angry video game nerd who was angry Nintendo nerd originally is like, no, I got to expand into something bigger. You're like, I love the AK platform, but...

Yeah, so I knew the AK platform. It was going to be pretty niche, but to be honest, the thing that made me switch from the AK guy, quote unquote, into Brandon Herrera, which is my name, was really funny because it was like a personal pet peeve. I don't think I've ever told this story. What made me switch from the AK guy to Brandon Herrera on YouTube formally, which I'm really glad I did because I did it right before I really started blowing up on YouTube.

uh, was that friends of mine, I knew like, you know, guys like Paul and our tactical and whoever, like guys who were like, I still consider like really good friends, like people that were friends with me early on. And like when I very first started in the grind, we're introducing me to people at shot show and different things like that. They didn't know my name. They didn't know my real name. They're just like, this is my buddy, uh, AK guy. I'm like,

God damn it, man. I actually try. I try hard. I try to do good content.

You fucker. 8K guy. I'm still 8K guy on your phone. So it's actually, so I'm. Mine is Donut Cody on my phone. Donut Cody. Mine's Cody Donut. I'm so not offended by that because literally a month ago, I just changed yours from Eli Double Tap to your actual name. Mine's Eli Double Tap in my phone. It was Eli Double Tap until like a month ago.

I switched it over. Yeah, I need to do that because my brain, I'm like, I know you well enough now that it felt weird to me to keep you as Eli Double Tap. I'm like, all right, well, that's just fucking awkward. I'll change that. Dude, my best friend growing up, Casey. Casey, love you.

I don't have his number saved on my phone. I just type it in every time because that's how I've always known him is by his phone number. So to this day, still. He is not saved in your phone? Nope. That's funny. I get to do this. I go. It brings up a number. Yep. And then I go like that. We talking about you.

That is how his name will always stay. It's just a fucking plethora. I leave it as however I enter him. Like my roommate across the hall in college was named Diego. But when I first met him, I was like Diego 334 because that was his room number. He's still Diego 334 on my phone. Like 15 years later. You're Dr. Demolition Ranch on my phone. There you go. What was your first video that you felt like, hey, okay, here, this is an actual career choice now.

Okay, so the the can I guess yeah the 12 gauge mm-hmm that was when it was like so I had a video that went Super viral before that though. It was a dog and a deer playing with a soccer ball. It went on the Ellen show It's called dog verse deer So this this was a I was in college and

and my brother found a baby deer and took it home and my little sister bottle fed and raised it. - Drew? - This was my brother Mark. So Drew was little, little at this time. This was a long time ago. And so my sister bottle fed and raised it and it grew up with our pet dog, family dog. And so there's this video my sister took of it playing with a soccer ball in the front yard. It's baby deer and this dog just like wrestling with the soccer ball and it was super cute and they showed it to me and I was like, can I put that on my YouTube channel?

which is in like 2006 or something. Oh, Jesus. You are fucking... I'm guessing. YouTube just started nine months after YouTube first came out. I bet it was 2006. I'm guessing, but I think it was around then because I was in undergrad and I uploaded it

And it was like a month later that it went viral and it went on the Ellen DeGeneres show. It went on Anderson Cooper. It went all around Japan and made a bunch of money in Japan. And that was when I first was like, Oh dang, I made like 1500 bucks on this one video. And I was right there. Yeah. Actually wait, no, it was vet school. It was after. So it would have been like 2009 probably. Now that I think about it, it was vet school, right? Yeah. And so imagining like,

Anderson Cooper being relevant in 2006. No, it was... They never would have shared that knowing that Matt was going to be a... Right. No, not to where yet. And so then it was a couple years. I tried after that to mimic that and try to make another... I filmed every fucking animal I could find trying to make another viral video. And I couldn't make another viral video. Baby plays with deer. Yeah, I was like... Can we just talk about the fact that

God damn it. Demolition Ranch just got here on the podcast like, oh, I never had a viral video, 12 million subscribers. I couldn't get another viral video. No, I mean, so no, I tried for two years. I just thought, I'll just film cute animals all the time and I'm going to hit another one. And it never happened. And then I was finally like, well, screw it. I'll just film gun stuff because that's what I like to do. And I started just making gun videos just kind of for fun.

And then we put random crap in a shotgun shell and shot it, and it went viral. And it got shared by other big gun channels, which were at the time Military Arms Channel, Iraq Veteran, like those kind of guys. All four of them. Yeah. No, seriously. Oh, I know. Trust me. I remember old YouTube very well. I remember. So here's a story I don't think I've ever told anybody but you. I told you the first time we hung out, which was, God, I don't know, fucking five years ago, six years ago, something like that. Mm-hmm.

I remember starting my first gun channel, like real gun channel, a long fucking time ago. And I deleted it afterward because I realized that women smell nice and I didn't want to do YouTube. Yeah, jokes on me. Wait, okay. Well, because I have multiple channels before my first channel. You're like, I'm never getting delayed with this. No, seriously, because YouTube was not cool back in the day. No, it was not. It was not.

I had two... We did it before it was cool. Exactly, we're hipsters. Oh, yeah. We did it before it was cool. We did it. But I remember, like, I grew a fucking gun channel to, you know, a few thousand subscribers, and you had subscribed to me, and I had subscribed to you. I won't say the name of the channel, because I'm sure it could be dug up somewhere. Ha ha!

But I remember like, oh, cool. Demolition Ranch. It's a cool guy, whatever. And I just like to this day, I'm like, oh, God, he's at fucking 12 million subscribers. I could be there. That could have been me. That could have been me. Damn it. Sorry. No. Dude, isn't it crazy? Like when you rewind Corridor Digital. Yeah. Jake's a great. We watch them forever. Oh, yeah. Dude, I mean, they it was great watching when we filmed the police. What was the skit, Jake?

That you put demo for like 0.2 seconds in? Yeah. I was there for five hours. I was barely in it. Tactical Reload 3. And you still text me. You're like, I still text my kids. I showed my kids. I was like, watch me in this one second clip. That was me. I'm the one who died right there. I didn't know you were in that.

Because I was in it like that. Dude, they were like, cool. We got fucking Brad Pitt killing me. I was there for four hours. I was in it for three seconds. Way to give yourself three seconds. I always give myself a little more. Me and any Heather skit ever. I just die in a lot of skits. That last one, let me just give you all props. I was like, dang. It was funny the whole way through. It just seemed like

Y'all went hard and it worked. I don't know if it got views. I didn't look to see how reviews were. I watched the entire thing and I was amazed how good it was. I remember getting sent that video and seeing it was nine and a half minutes. I'm like, oh God, that was a real production. That was a big deal. Shout out to fucking Eli too, man. Thanks for helping direct that. You fucking did a great job. Were you directing it? You wrecked that shit. It just looked like real...

like passion went into it and not just like, let's, let's make a video, you know? No, like it was awesome. Everyone like from a G man, you shot like listing, like going in Caleb sitting there pointing his revolver at everybody. It was like the funniest thing ever. Heather, Heather, Heather's writing.

She wrote the entire thing. It was so good. It was fucking amazing. We had to hear about it so much from Cody bragging about his girlfriend. It was so annoying. He has a girlfriend. What a fucking hetero. We were like, oh, that's great.

Stop bragging about your girlfriend. It was so good. All Brandon and I do are die in it. Mine is literally dying. You make a really good villain. You're the villain. He's the henchman. I remember watching the night before we recorded it. I remember watching Die Hard all the way through for the first time in like fucking 10 years.

And asking Heather via text, should I do a German accent? And then remember, Hans Gruber does not have a German accent. Watching it in the movie, I'm like, never mind, Heather. Sorry. Alan Rickman. Such a good man. Y'all crushed it. Yeah, that was pretty good. You fucking crushed it. No, you all crushed it. Stop it. Stop it. Let's just jerk each other off real quick. No, you're breathtaking.

No, but y'all are just crushing each aspect of it. I love the motivation. I love everything you guys are doing. Because all of you, it doesn't happen overnight.

fucking the biggest thing to take away? How many years did it take for you to get to your position where you're like, I don't have to be a fucking doctor. I started trying hard in 2013, so it's 10 years. But I was doing YouTube for like five years before that. But 2013 was the year that I said, I'm going to try to make this work. And that's when I really started pushing it. 10 years ago. 10 years. You was doing YouTube since 2007.

Cody? Yeah, I started in 2016. It took a fucking couple years, man. It was like four or five years.

And this is people living in their basements, giving up. They're still working on the side as a doctor in a veterinary, which is fucking mind blowing to me. My side job of a veteran. How many years did you do? Four years of undergrad and four years of vet school. Fucking eight years of college. And then you were just working your entire time. I dropped out. Yeah. But you were supposed to be a lawyer. Yeah. Weren't you trying to be a lawyer? You were going to be Jake. I was going to be Jake. Could have been that.

God, I could have been that. I'm not that sexy, man. I just can't do it. You piece of shit. And you guys each, they made that sacrifice that the mindset of like, hey, this can turn into something bigger. Yes, you could have made a lot of money doing what you wanted to do. Not you didn't graduate yet. But each of you continued through your process and like, I still want to chase this dream. This dream is

and make it bigger and better than I could. And that is that removing the safety net and be like, hey, I'm going to continue this process because I want to see what this can lead into.

And then look at you fucking now, which is my favorite thing. Handsome as hell. Handsome. Fucking six foot eight. Six nine. Jacked as shit. Six nine. Six nine. Everyone's tall as fuck because they believed in it. All you gotta do is believe. We all got taller. Just believe. But at the end of the day, they grew into something fucking amazing because they weren't like, hey.

here's what I can accomplish. That's it. Instead, they were like, no, I want to be something better. I want to continue and push myself into another avenue of success and watch it take off and,

That is why I surround myself with individuals like this. And I suggest you all do the same because that is how you just surround yourself with successful YouTubers and everything is going to work out. What you're going to know before Cody. What I love is I can say I knew Cody before 20,000 subscribers. That's crazy. Wow. That's the first time I ever heard that. That is crazy. And look at where this, I would not have hung out with him if he didn't have subscribers. Yeah.

Fuck that. No, Eli and I were DMing each other before fucking. Yeah, he was like, bro, you want to play fucking, what was the game? God damn it. Fucking, ah, shit. PUBG. Yeah, PUBG. We played PUBG with each other. And I got your first dub on PUBG.

Yeah, we did. I was chasing him on PUBG because I met Drew before you. And you decided to play PUBG one day. We got our first donut operator. There were people telling me that I should collab with Donut Operator. And I don't know why, but there was some fat cop that I had seen a photograph of. And I just assumed that was you. Because I was like, it's a fat cop I've seen online. And I was like, yeah, Donut Operator. It's probably him. And then I saw you and I was like, that's not Donut Operator.

He was fat cop. I thought you were a fat bald guy before I met you. You did a zombie map on PUBG. God damn, I forgot about this. You were trying to kill me? Matt did a map on PUBG where there's like

Everyone can play a zombie. So there's like 100 zombies. And I was one of the zombies. I was trying to catch up with you to tell you about my YouTube channel. Oh, my God. Wait, this is real? I completely forgot. You said PUBG. It made me think about this. But yeah, because I was a PUBG partner back in the day. I was one of the people that helped with it.

And yeah, they developed this new map where you could have 99 people and then one person trying to get away from it or something like that. And I was one of the zombies. And I knew that Carica was on there. And I think Drew, your brother, got me into it, managed to finagle me into it. And we were all chasing you on a map.

And I just wanted to tell you about my YouTube channel. I just picture a zombie. Cody's like, hey! Hey! Have you ever heard of Donut Operator? I don't want to kill you. I'm a friend. Don't shoot me. Please don't shoot me. I'm just imagining Cody just like knife fisting his way. Like, hey! Hey! Dude, I was just jumping over everything. I'm like, Matt! Matt!

Good times, man. Good times. Everything came from something. It's pretty crazy. All of us had humble beginnings. I'm still at that humble beginning, but I get to hang out with dope people. I remember when we were like fucking, we were nobody's back in the day. I remember that. Y'all were so drunk. You don't have to remember. Give us 10 minutes. We hand this podcast. The aerial gunnery.

Where we were just submerged in the back of a fucking truck. In the middle of fucking nowhere in Texas. Oh, you were there. That was the first time I think I met you. And I brought my Uzi and it didn't work. That was, oh my God. That was our first hangout as a group. Yeah, you were there too. Holy fuck. We drove together to Dallas. That's right. That's wild.

Yeah, I remember that entire story. Because your Uzi didn't work. My Uzi was jamming all over the place. We were lighting cigarettes next to a gas container. Yeah, that night. My character is an adult in this situation. We are 30-year-old men at a gas station at like midnight. Behind a gas station. Behind the gas station at midnight. In the dark. Smoking cigarettes in the dark.

Leaning on a propane tank smoking cigarettes and I'm like, can we go somewhere over there to smoke cigarettes or something? You dummies. You want fucking inspiration? As we're all hanging out and doing this, I was so fucking broke I missed my flight the next day. I couldn't actually switch my flight.

So I rented a car to drive all the way back to North Carolina at the time because nothing would clear on my credit card except for a rental car. Dude, we were literally in the back of a fucking 7-Eleven. All of us people were in the back of a 7-Eleven. Leon Lush? Yeah, Leon Lush was with us. Half a fucking decade ago? Jesus. Yeah, we were drinking and smoking cigarettes and trying not to blow ourselves up.

This is pinnacle. And it is humble beginnings. If you don't think you can achieve anything, trust me. We all have the most humble beginnings. We all hung out behind the gas station in the dark. We did. I love it. You're like, we all did the sloppy toppy behind the Waffle House. Oh, it's fucking amazing. Cody, close this out and we'll go into the portion of the after show on Patreon.
