Rusty Clark, an Army and Air Force veteran, needed treatment at a VA hospital. Meet his wife, Juanita. We live above Borgantown, West Virginia. It would take us about seven hours to get here. And I was prepared to sleep on the hospital floor beside of Mr. Clark. But the
Fisher House opened up that door. We had a lovely suite to stay in. We had food to eat. We didn't have to worry about that because of Fisher House, the foundation. Mr. and Mrs. Fisher took care of all that years ago, following their dream to make our reality that we were together and we could be treated here. It's a great blessing. Meet Rusty. I was in the Army Guard, and then I went into the Air Force, and then I met Juanita. Keeping families together when they need it most.
For active duty military wounded and veterans sick or injured, Fisher Houses make a huge difference. Learn more at FisherHouse.org. That's FisherHouse.org. Because of family's love. It's good medicine.
No other time in history was like, let's get the two richest men on the planet and have them fight each other. What about envision the activities Mike's doing and what the watch thinks he's doing. Oh, wow. 35 minutes on the shake weight today. Mike got beat up first period, but second period, he wouldn't kick someone else. Ben, you've been dressing nicer lately. Ryan, you have seen me wear...
one thing for the last seven years and that's just a seaboy's t-shirt and i put i literally have worn not a seaboy's t-shirt just like a like a blank shirt or a blank long sleeve like three times around ryan he goes getting fancy huh i think a seaboy shirt is even nicer right yeah so that's where i was confused because i was like i i thought i was dressing down i mean yeah true but it's just like i've never seen this out of you knew me well i just figured you dug all that shit up when you moved
You were like, oh, I own this. The only thing I dug up when I moved was fucking poison ivy. Yeah, what's the deal with that? All over my hands, bro. All over my ankles, everywhere. I could be downwind from poison ivy now. Yeah. Yeah. Honestly, I'm really nervous being around you. It's not contagious. It's not contagious. Really? I thought the oils were contagious. You know, I don't know. I don't know. There's so many myths. I don't know. Every time I get poison ivy, I'm always looking up home remedies for poison ivy. And I've got everything under the sun at this point.
To put on it and like nothing works besides for just like letting it be for two weeks. But yeah, bro, I swear I could literally be downwind from Poison Ivy and I would get it. You're contagious to yourself. Yeah, literally. No one else can get it from you. You spread it around. It's on your hand and you like touch your arm and then it's on your arm the next day. Maybe in the same day. Yeah, one time I got Poison Ivy when I was doing landscaping for Dave.
And I must have weed whacked it or something. And it got on my legs. And then I must have not washed it off in time. My legs were together. So I got on both legs. And then I got it on my arms. And then I was in Canada on a remote island when it finally started to break out. So I was...
On this island for three days without like a single thing to treat it with. And it spread over my entire body. And it was probably, it was one of the worst weeks, like the following week of my life. Like I couldn't move. I was laid up in bed for a week straight. Didn't you get it on your nuts? Oh, bro, I got it everywhere. Everywhere. Well, so here's the worst poison ivy story I've ever heard, though.
This had to have been like 10 years ago. Yeah, we were kids. Oh my gosh. So me and CJ are out on our friend's boat.
and our friend my brother's friends i should say and they're older than us they're maybe five ten years older and um anyway we're like hanging out we're pretty much just kids at this point and uh next thing we know two couple like a guy and a girl i don't think they were a couple started like making out in the front of a boat next to us right and you know just being like a little kid you're just like what's going on well next thing you know they swim to shore and they sneak up into like the
The beach. Kind of like a secluded beach woods. Yeah. And they're gone for about five, ten minutes, maybe being generous. And they come back, and I didn't really think much of it. Apparently, they went up into the woods and did the dirty, and...
They were literally smashing on poison ivy. He was laying in poison ivy. Laying in poison ivy. I can't believe they laid down. Yeah, that's pretty savage. It must have been getting after it. You sure they laid down? So my brother's friend basically in the following days wakes up, poison ivy head to toe everywhere except for his dick. Except? Except. He got crabs. His only thing that was covered. Yeah.
But like head to toe. And that's how he got it. A little geography lesson. So the beach that everybody parks at is actually on the road out to my dad's place. So I drive by that spot. I don't know the exact spot, but I drive by that every day. Yeah, it's kind of a legendary spot now. Yeah, I kind of look at it and I go, yeah, I don't think I'd smash there. Like I just, it just doesn't seem right. Just weeds and like. Man, you got to be real horny to do that. You got to take advantage when you got the opportunity.
Yeah, not everybody's so blessed to have such a good hand like you, Ben. Yeah. Speaking of the good hand, though, yeah, definitely hold off on that. Sorry. Yeah, definitely hold off on the good hand or probably both hands. Yeah. Ben. If you jerked off, would you get it on your dick?
I don't know. I don't think it's one of those things you want to find out. Right out the gate, yeah. Yeah, I'd imagine. I mean, what would be stopping it? It's not like your dick has some special superpower. Well, some do. I thankfully don't... I've gotten poison ivy really bad, and I think I got it so bad that I just like now I'm immune to it. Is it like chicken pox? Like you get it really bad, but I guess you get it again. Yeah, I don't know. They say that like once you have it...
really bad, then you'll never get it again. I've had it so bad so many times and I keep getting it. Yeah, when we went reckless golfing, I took a shit and when I was taking the shit, I was in poison ivy. Really? Yeah, I took a shit in the woods. It wasn't on the video. I can't get it either. I'm pretty sure my ass touched a poison ivy leaf. Oh wow, you were hanging low. Yeah, and then I was like, oh fuck, and then I like scurried out and kind of did it right on the side of the car path. Laughter
I feel very lucky that I can't get it. And I feel like you have like borderline of disability when you get around it. Yeah. Disability. I've got a good update from our fellas down in the big city of Minneapolis. And it's a little Minneapolis collab with the Kia boys. Oh, wow. Yeah. I love those guys. Like the Kia boys are in Minneapolis mobbing. Yeah. I wish I would have heard. You would have been there. Pick up a couple of Kias. Go join. What? Yeah. Turn up a little bit.
Why the fuck did he start shooting at him? I don't know. Who's shooting? The guy on the street. Just downtown Minneapolis. Taylor Swiftville. He must be rivals to the Kia boys. The Honda boys. The Honda boys. What the fuck? Who did he start shooting at? That seemed kind of random. Yeah, it's pretty crazy. In the open, downtown Minneapolis. Evan! Evan! What's up, buddy? Eating some oatmeal. Sitting in for a big can. Diesel, diesel. Bit of an exciting change. We got Evan. Evan.
Behind the cameras at the desk today. Ken's too busy shipping out merch. I think he's darn near close. I think he's got everything out from the last drop. Yeah, they've been cranking him and his team. Yep. His team. He does have a full-blown army back there, honestly. He's an army man, and they respect him. And he is just, I mean, he's really a great leader when he's in his merch bay. I saw them doing the Pledge of Allegiance to a picture of him. Every morning. To a picture of him. Oh, really? Yeah.
Yeah, I walked back there the other day looking for something and I was kind of just sneaking in the shadows. They didn't know I was there. And I heard a couple daddies, like they were referencing daddy to Ken. I legit didn't even understand like a single thing that they were saying. Like they have their own like cryptic language now.
They have their own jokes, their own like everything. Everything is like an inside joke. Like I don't I'm not sure if they're speaking in Morse code or what, because it's more efficient for Ken because he's too lazy to get out a full sentence. No, I heard they definitely do have their own their own little lingo. But I heard they're only allowed to talk to each other. Not they're not allowed to talk to Ken.
They can't make eye contact with them. They have to look at the ground when Ken's talking. Only speak when spoken to type of vibes. No, all jokes aside though, every time I do go back there and spend more than like 30 seconds, if I'm like looking for something, it's just dead silent.
except for like a little EDM. Yeah, there's a little music on. He's got like a little wiggle-dicking music going on in the background, and like everyone's kind of just bobbing their head as they're like packaging orders and stuff, and Ken is sitting at his desk. Scrolling Facebook Marketplace and Reddit, and they're all working.
Ken's got it figured out, dude. He outsourced his whole job. Yeah, he really did. So now I'm just wondering, what is he doing back there? Smoking vapes. It has been awfully cloudy. People have been complaining about their orders that they're getting. I thought it was a nightclub in there with the music and then the smoke rolling out. Every day they come to pick up orders when the garage door opens, it's just a smoke cloud rolling out. Ken's got all of his minions three days vaping back there. I saw a comment.
One of the podcasts that said, it's so disrespectful that Ben calls Ken's workers minions. I would quit so fast. I was like, I'm not calling a minion. Ken calls them his minions. I'm just passing on the message. And they refer to themselves as minions. I actually try not to call them that, but I will back up the minion statement where they are actually...
my younger brother's friends and like they've been hanging around they come and go like like we've known him for a long time it's not like we just like picked him up off the street you put a a job uh you know opportunity in the newspaper and these people are just random like they're like kind of friends and like they crack jokes at ken hence why they call him daddy and he calls them the minions you know it's just
Would it be crossing the line if we got them all minion costumes and required them to wear them? That would be really funny. I feel like they would straight up think it was funny. But I mean, I'm not going to do that. That's Ken's territory. I'm not going to step in his territory.
What are the minions main guy dress like? Gru. Oh my gosh. It's so accurate. Okay, wait. I want to see it. Yeah, I went back there. I was showing someone around and I was like, yep, so this is kind of the operations back here. And Carter goes, operations? You mean sweatshop?
Set your mouth. Set your fucking mouth. It's the fucking OSHA guy. No lunch for you today. Ken walks over and just puts his hand on his mouth and just holds him. So yeah, the orders are pretty much out at this point. Hopefully everyone gets their stuff before 4th of July. That was the plan. And thanks for the support. Ken appreciates it. We know that. Yeah, it's actually after the 4th right now.
It's actually the 4th of July. We'll hopefully have your stuff by then, though. I might not be lazy, but for the analytics post on Wednesday morning. So when you guys are back at work, Wednesday morning is going to be a tough one. What do you guys think is the worst day to have the 4th of July on? Tuesday. Tuesday, bro. This shit kind of sucks. I feel like Tuesday or Wednesday. The next two years are going to be the worst because like...
Thursday, I think, is the best because you get Thursday off and you obviously get Friday off. You go straight up hard on Thursday, right out the gate. Where we live is kind of like this vacation area. Out-of-towners are filing in last night, Thursday. All the restaurants are packed. The
highways all jammed up. There's tons and tons of people because obviously this is like where they want to spend the fourth. So they're going to be out here partying from Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and then Tuesday is the fourth now. So now it's like, oh, this is a big day. But it's like, wow, we just freaking went hard for the whole weekend because I remember this is how it went last year for me because it would have been on a Monday. And we had a bunch of people staying over and it was so fun. It was like,
Saturday was great. Sunday was like, okay, this is really fun. And then by the time the fourth came, you're like, I'm kind of over sitting around drinking like this. And I kind of want all of you guys to go home. You know what, though, CJ? You got to be a patriot. And somebody's got to do it. No. And don't get me wrong. I go out there and I crack a beer and I slam it down and wave a flag because that's the American way. That's the American way. But yeah, no, there is. Now that guy. Now that guy is an alcoholic. Hey.
He's a patriot. It definitely is unfortunate, though, that it is a Tuesday. But first world problems, you know? That really is, yeah. America problems. The nice thing is we'll probably end up working on Monday a little bit. We don't have to go. We already live here. I'm pretty excited. I think Monday is going to be a good film day because we...
For a few things we have going, we need some good reactions and there's going to be a lot of people out. Yeah. I'm excited for that. Yeah, I agree. Yeah, true. We could almost film the jet skis on Monday. I think either filming the jet skis or the Hummer pontoon on Monday makes the most sense because it's like the lull day, kind of. I love that statement. Should we film our motorcycle jet skis on Monday or do you think we should do the Hummer pontoon? Well,
Well, with Big Wrench, the list of odd contraptions are growing. At this point, the jet skis with this video won't be out yet, so we probably can't spoil too much. But Big Wrench and I went for a cruise on one of his newest contraptions.
And he was so proud. He didn't want to go. He's like, have you test driven it yet? And I was like, no, no, I haven't. And he was like, oh, take it for spin. I was like, well, come with me. We got two of them. And we went and cruised. He was smiling the whole time. It was awesome. Well, he built it and he's not entirely confident in his, his traptions.
I'm confused by that because every time he builds anything or like whether it's because I've told him before, I was like, take it for a spin or it's like the Miata, like rip a drift or whatever. I always say, yeah, Brian, take it for a spin. You go, no, no, I'm good. I'm good. I got a family at home. Yeah, I don't know. I've always, I've always been a little curious. Like, I'm like, no one's filming my, you just,
putts around. Check it out. You built it, man. Go have some fun. Enjoy it. Big Ranch, take the Hummer pontoon out this weekend. No, seriously. I'm good. No, no, no. You got to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Those jet skis do look so good though because when they're rolling, you can't see the wheels so it looks like they're just hovering. It is magical. It could not be any better. Everybody that's seen it
has stopped and said something. Like I rode down a dead end road. How can you not? And I came back and there was multiple people at the end of their driveways waiting for me to come back to talk about it. It is the most electric thing I've ever driven. It's awesome. It's not electric. It's going to be such a great video. It's such a unit too. It's so big. You're kind of on it. You're like, wow.
but like realistically you're just on a moped, but it feels so much bigger now. Yeah. Cause you're driving a couch. Yeah. You're literally driving a couch. It's so big. That's the next thing we should have. Big wrench build. Dude. Big wrench just doesn't want to drive his contraptions because he doesn't want to break them. Cause he knows he'll have to fix them.
He's like, I ain't taking any chances and having to make myself get more work. I want him to build an old John boat on a trailer just into a car, basically. It's a John boat on a trailer and you just drive. Oh, you're driving the actual trailer too. The hitch is just, that's the front of your car, the unit. Yeah, it just looks like a stray trailer that got loose from a truck. Yep.
They're like, oh my God. And then you're just saying it. Exactly. That's actually a pretty good idea, Mike. We got to do that. Have you guys seen the dragster that is a camper? No. Like exactly what you just said, but it looks like a camper with a hitch sticking out the front. Really? It's a drag car, yeah. What?
That's awesome. That's pretty sick. Jamie, pull that up. You got your computer ready? Evan, you're probably the only one who's less qualified than Ken. I will say he's paying attention, though. I know you're talking, which is nice to see because Ken never does that. He just scrolls on his phone the whole time. What do you think?
What are you going to do? We actually should do that boat thing because it'd be hilarious. And just make it into a trike. You use the trailer wheels and then you put a wheel out in the front and then you have the boat steering tied up to the wheel in the front. And then you can actually drive it in the water because there's no holes in the boat. Like the boat would still function as a boat.
And so you just drive into the water. It'll float the trailer. Would it? Yeah. Why not? Yeah, it would. I mean, it depends how big the boat is. It depends what motor you put in the thing. Cause that would have to be. The trailer motor might be pretty low. Yeah. Unless you, you could like chain drive it down. Yes. This is specific semantics problems for big wrench, but I think, I think it could work. You can put the motor in the boat inside of a cooler, like a big cooler. And where will the teas go? Yeah.
In the secondary cooler. Oh, gotcha. Yeah, driving behind. Can't keep the T's in a trailer. Or you're going to get fed to them.
It's better than the back of your truck, Ev. If they were on a trailer, you'd be like Vin Diesel having to crawl back there while driving down the road. Today's episode is brought to you by Angie.

In the boat when we were on the way up to Justin's bachelor party. I was in the boat. You were in it? Yeah. No, you weren't. It was just me, bro. I went like an hour by myself in the X30. I was with you. I think you were both in there and then you got out and it was just him for a while because we were just like on a country road. I was like, well, I'm not stopping.
yeah we were just chilling it was kind of fun it was nice because i got to lay out it was probably windy it's super illegal but yeah i was a little worried i was like man if something happened for some reason it'd be bad bad deal but you're not exactly seat belted in or if the trailer just somehow randomly disconnected i just got a video from our buddy and it was a pontoon all mangled up sideways in the highway it'd fallen off the trailer came unhooked and it looked like the trailer went like this and
And then the pontoon fell off and then it looked like the semi hit it. Oh, real bad, bad news bears. Bad way to start your fourth weekend. I feel it. Yeah. They were probably trailing it down. They maybe had a rental like that. It was a nice, it was a nice pontoon. Nice truck that it fell off of. Like probably just like when you do things too fast, uh,
and you're stupid. You get jammed up. Yeah. It's easy to get jammed up when you're doing stuff too quick. What do you think is the most extreme thing you've done for a tee? Like, what's the biggest jam up you've been in? I was just thinking about that when you were talking about like... Don't incriminate this guy with his girlfriend. No, no, no, no, no. When you were like, I'd have to be like Vin Diesel crawling into the back of a moving vehicle like...
Do you ever have a story where you're like, oh man, I was in this jam up and we had to go through planes, trains, and automobile to get to a T? Just think of being run out on a Sunday, not being able to go to the liquor store, and then having to dig through...
Bizarre places to like find one like an all banged up dirty tea that was like in my backpack A banged up dirty tea remember when we went to Evan's garage and eat you were hoarding those uh Bourbon barrels the bourbon barrels. They they went extinct for a good reason because they are terrible and
But we treat them like royalty. Why? They're very rare. What's a bourbon barrel? Oh, that's right. The original party pack flavors. And when they switched from bourbon barrel to peach, they put the bourbon barrel ones were super cheap, like five or six bucks. So we bought a ton of them and then save them because they were so bad. We didn't want to drink them.
And now we don't even drink Twisted anymore. Man, I just think it's so ridiculous, Evan, that you've committed... It's damn near your personality at this point to be like a Twisted tea drinker. And they don't even...
They won't even respond to your messages. Won't even acknowledge me. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I think it's kind of bullshit. But hey, Ryan, earlier you mentioned something about trikes and it triggered this thought. But you guys see our buddy Gavin, the three wheeler, three wheeler gap. Yeah. You guys see his last video of going to trike fest. I haven't watched it. He had been rolling through with like the hot rod. Everyone was probably looking at that thing. I just pictured Gav. Yeah.
Being such a trike enthusiast, hanging out with other trike enthusiasts and them just like
over his three wheeler and him geeking over other people's three wheelers. And I was like, man, this is just such a culture. Like all the people that he was hanging out with. But I don't think that we would have been purist and fit in there, but I think we would have had a good time. Oh, for sure. It seemed like one thing that blew me away was that they have a couple different runs throughout the weekend. And one of them is like specifically a hard tail run. You have to bring a three wheeler that doesn't have suspension. Oh,
Oh. Like, that's that particular ride. Then the other one is a free game, open mod, whatever. I'm like, wow, they have specific runs for specific. Because obviously people coming there are bringing more than one three-wheeler. Of course. Where was that at? I think Indiana or something like that. Yeah, really. It was somewhere you think that they would like to do. There's a lot of three-wheelers there. There was, dude. That would have been a lot of fun. How many collarbones do you think got broken that weekend? Just in Gad's video, I saw like 14 flips. Ugh.
Didn't Gav wad up on the first corner of his race? Yeah. Of course. He was just so excited. He was just full throttle. Can't make the turn. Yeah, and then he just can't make the turn, but still just cranks it. Flips. I was laughing at that. I was like, honestly, dude, I can't believe that this thing is still in one piece. I think he's very particular about...
making sure he keeps it nice. I remember when we gave it to him, he's like, I'm not taking that in the mud. I'm like, bro, it's a three-wheeler. Take it in the mud. He did swamp it pretty much immediately. Yeah, water. Unfortunately. Did he? Yeah, when we got to Moab. Oh, yeah, in Moab. Yeah, that's right. But the water hits the air filter. Yeah, it's got a bad design. It's a poor design. Poor design for sure. So what do you guys think that those guys would think about...
Our modern-day three-wheeler. Do you think they're such purists they would be disgusted? I saw a few of them there. Some would like, some wouldn't. Keeping it alive, bro. It's like a resto mod. Resto mod. Resto mod. I feel like it probably would be pretty similar to the way that CJ feels about the new Ford Ranger. Like, he can appreciate some of the new luxuries that it has, but it's just not as good as the old 1999 Ford Ranger. Yeah, that's true.
I mean, yeah, I guess I don't know how it feels for the three-wheelers, but I can definitely agree with that. You'll learn, though. It's all right. It's still Ford Ranger, I guess. Times change, but, you know. Me and CJ had a conversation about this yesterday of, like, these certain things that we make videos about are such a niche market, right? Niche. Niche. Yeah.
Oh man, you know it's bad when CJ starts correcting what I'm saying. Holy shit, I'm getting dumber. But anyway, so like yesterday's vid with like the big wheel dirt bikes, pretty niche. You know, and granted, a lot of people are probably just like, dirt bike, you know, click, click, the same. But the big wheel, the three wheelers...
all these different things that we like kind of expand out to and make different videos on and in like these different markets and sectors of people. It's almost like we are like the Thanos of like just grabbing all these collectives of people and just like bringing them into our like inner circle of like, all right, you click for this and then and then half the video is that and then the other half is this.
Reckless golfing with our grandpa or blind grandpa bowling prank or like, you know, so many just random things. And then you just hope that they stay for the enjoyment of everything. But you're just like grabbing these like weird things, like weird, like a niche niche niche people. Yeah.
From all these different spots. And I think that's, like, our fan base at this point. But I think we're making... Three-wheelers are the most popular, probably, I'd say. Like, most people know what a three-wheeler is, you know? And obviously quads and dirt bikes. But, like, you start getting into things like the big wheel. It's, like, a much smaller group of people that are aware of them, let alone enthusiasts. But we, like...
make it more knowing because now we present it to these people and it oftentimes seems like we're uh clearing the path of uh you know yeah of like a space of this space because i don't really know if there's anyone else making videos with big wheels that are uh you know like at this size and doing it at this scale
I know one thing's for sure. We drove the price of smart cars up. 100%. Because we've been trying to get them, and now they're all like 10 grand. What the fuck happened? They're old. Also, a bunch of other YouTubers got smart cars after we got them. I remember nobody had them, and we got them because we're like, this is the lamest thing, but we're going to act like it's super cool. Those things were cool. And then they end up actually being cool. I guess, yeah, I forgot about that. We came into it like, yeah, these things are lame. Even after we drove them, they're like...
they're slow. But they were so cheap at the time and they look so funny. It was like, let's drift them. Let's see if we can, you know, pull the traction control fuse. That way we can drift them. And,
And we'll lift it up. We'll jump on them and do all these things. I forget that we own a smart car still. Sitting on top of Ken's van. Yeah. Rocket League was so fun. The smart cars are like golf carts. They're just kind of like little chicken nuggets. And they're almost indestructible. I wouldn't mind buying one again. It's just I just know I probably wouldn't drive it as much as I'd like to.
you know like i'd have to drive my truck it's like i gotta i feel the same way i would love to have another dude i actually got pulled over in the smart car i got for speeding back when you know we had it sounds like driving i'm not surprised by that well so so fast he's got more speeding tickets than anyone i know yeah i mean i he came up to him i was like i bet it's the first time you ever pulled a smart car over he's like yep
Yep. I actually got let off on that one, so shout out to that guy. But no, the thing was just so goddamn slow. I pull out of the driveway, and whenever you're driving the smart car, you got pedaled to the wood the whole time. Of course. And you got to run the paddle shifters just to make it shift faster, because otherwise it doesn't rev the gear out enough. I don't think you have to. You have to if you're trying to get anywhere. So anyways, by the time it got up to speed...
But it was such a slow acceleration. It didn't feel like I was going that fast, but I was going like maybe like, you know, 80 in a 40 or something. That's not that fast. Yeah, not that fast. But I mean, like you get up to it and then it's like now you're speeding, but you don't feel like it. And then I'm cruising. Dude, I drove my smart car to a wedding or I was in the wedding and I was at the rehearsal dinner and then driving on my way home from that.
I just remember because I got it on video. I'm taking a snap. I'm wearing my tux or whatever or suit. And then I'm like driving the smart car. And then my muffler falls off. What? Yeah, it's just like... You hear it like... Yeah.
Like, did my muffler just fall off? I'll have to see if I can find it. You were probably pretty stoked on it. Like, nice. I didn't even have to cut it. But, like, think of any other smart car owner and their muffler falls off and now they got to drive around in their smart car. It was pretty loud. Do you remember Ken wrapped his? He spent, like, a week wrapping his. And then we're like, now it looks the coolest, so we got to jump it into the pool. That's right. He was pissed.
He took it pretty well for the amount of work that he had into it. Yeah, it took a long time. I don't know if Ken's wrapped anything since. Hasn't modded anything since. Yeah, no kidding. The easy smart car unload video, just overlay that right now. That was so slept on of just like how just pointless and reckless it was. Well, the reason why we did that was because we jumped in the pool and it was waterlogged. It was like pretty fucked up. So we're like, well, let's just...
because at the time that was what we did. Whenever you had junk or if anything was broken, you would unload it out of the back of a truck after going 40 mile an hour in reverse. And for some reason, it sometimes would start to work.
Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah. We got the golf cart to work. No, it'd be a little bent up, but it would run again. What have we launched out of the back of the truck? We've easy unloaded a golf cart. Yeah. CJ's four-wheeler. Yep. The golf cart. Grandpa's TV. Grandpa's TV. Yep. Smart car. Smart car was probably the pinnacle. I think that's it.
Yeah. What do you think is the largest thing we can fit? I mean, a smart car is damn near that. Yeah, we had to build ramps for it to sit on because of the wheel well. Yeah, because otherwise it wouldn't fit. I don't know what else we could fit. We should figure that out, though. Maybe we'll have to do a few more things. We could just get a bigger truck. Easy Lambo mode. Oh, like a dump truck. You could get a full dump truck. We just did a sled deck.
Like a flatbed. Then you'd really get a lot of room and you'd be really high and be destructive. Somebody say the Miata? Yeah. Evan did. Which I'm surprised because Evan loves a Miata. I do love the Miata. Dude, Evan was mobbing around in the Miata the other day. Red Miata, tops down, hairs flowing, and he pulls up. Chain out. Chain out. And he pulls up and we're just like... I think some of us were clapping because it was such a beautiful sight. Like didn't know what else to do. And...
Mike pulls this line out. One of the best things I've heard you say, Mike. He goes, looks like he's driving his red Etni. Because Ev wears red Etni shoes. It literally did. And it did, dude. Maybe it was just the moment, but...
We all just start laughing and now I can't unsee it. I don't want to wrap it like a shoe. I know. That'd be amazing. All you got to do is put an Etnie logo on the side and you're pretty much there. I got to say, Ev, I admire the fact that you still wear Etnies. Proper shoe. We should get you some new ones. Some
Like the ones with the big E on the side, though. I can't do that. Yours are like a little bit more like skater-ish. I'm talking like you want the – The Ryan Sheckler Pro Models. It's a quality shoe. I want to get you some like blocks on your feet, you know? What about some – Bar laces and everything. Maybe some Osirises. Bring those back. Did you ever have those?
Oh, yeah. You did? Actually, honestly, just one pair of, like, the big classic fucking tongue. Yeah, with the huge fucking tongue and... God, those things are ugly. They actually were comfortable. I'm sure they were. They were super heavy, but, like... What's the point of those? You can't skate in those. I mean, you could. You could skate in Crocs if you want, but, like, were they actually for skating? I mean, in theory, yeah, but I think it was just a phase that... Really? They just rocked them. They had the crazy colors. What were those one-shoes...
God. Now I can't think of them. They're like... Bat farms. Bat farms!
Oh, my God. I just do the fat farms. Are they still around? Pull them up. Ev doesn't have a computer. I can multitask. He doesn't have one in his personal life. He doesn't have one even back there that we loaned him. I'm not sure if fat farms still a thing. There was a kid in my class. There was a kid in my class that had fat farms and they didn't. This is in the second grade.
But they didn't make them in children's size. So he was wearing like a size eight shoe in the second grade. Like he was falling out of his feet. And then like the teacher, you can't go to gym class with those. He's like, yeah, Ken is just. Yep. Fat farms, dude. Yeah. I would say if you had those back in the day, you were considered cool. But only for like a couple years. Those are pretty fucking sick, honestly. I'd wear those today. Let's bring them back. Oh, they make them now?
What does fat farm even mean? I don't even know. Well, fat. So if you're fat, that's cool, right? Those are actually pretty slick, dude. I could see a guy wearing those in Miami with like a button up. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. For sure. Damn, dude. The fat farm signed by Run DMC. Oh, yeah. That's pretty sick. How much? $2.95. Can't put a price on that. Let me see if I can order some.
Fat farm shit. Hell yeah. Everyone go order a vintage shoe right now. It was always so impractical. It was like you were so careful because you got...
to run the bar laces, you had to like have the laces behind your tongue. It was such a pain in the dick. I remember looking back and go, why did I do this? So much work to lace them. Yeah. And then it's like, you don't want to get them messed up and shit. We're doing two sets of laces to get the colors, but then having so much lace. Yeah. And then packing the lace inside the shoe. So you're just,
walking on them. I'd try to stuff it under the sole and stuff, but then it's like you're walking on this bumpy little... Slide your foot in and the laces get tangled up in your toes. Terrible.
Yeah, we didn't have that at my private school. Everybody just wore. Yeah, what was everyone wearing there? Birkenstocks? Boat shoes. Yeah, we were at it all the time. Sperrys and shit, I'm sure. Did you have a uniform? Yeah, in elementary school. God, super. Did you pop up a picture? Of me bragging? Did you have to wear a tie? No, it was a polo. Ryan, dude, you like, when Ben asked you to pop up a picture of you in a uniform, you were like, of me. Of me? Yeah.
Ryan, I think that you should start wearing transitions again. Someone had such a good idea. Transitions contacts. So when you walk out in the sun, they get darker. So you're always wearing sunglasses. You would look creepy as hell. I like it. I like it. I would wear them. But yeah, your eyes are just black. Yeah, I didn't think about that. But it'd be fine. I wish I knew transition, Ryan. Why? So you could make fun of them? Probably. I don't know. I just don't even know them.
Let's put it this way. Me, Justin, and Ken, best friends. We rode around in Ken's Impreza because Ken was old, so he had his license. We would go to the movies a lot because that was the only thing we could do. But we'd go to the movie at 8, and then we'd leave here at like 4. And then we'd just drive around, and we'd go to the Chinese restaurant, eat a shit ton of ice cream.
Yeah, right when we started hanging out, you were kind of going through this phase of like,
going downtown and being a bad boy and like yelling like very aggressive things yeah out the window at people like walking from bar to bar and i remember going with you one night yeah you like take there's a bit of culture shock and like people obviously don't take kindly to like a 15 year old calling them a fucking pussy yeah
We saw two guys walking down the street, and now knowing what I know, yelling at people at like 1145 downtown Fargo. Like, everybody's walking from bar to bar. Just all hammered. And there was two guys wearing Affliction t-shirts. Who knows? Could have been Mark and Tim. No. And I just... We yelled, probably called them pussies or something like that, and they chased us through downtown. I would have... Guys, a guy with an Affliction shirt would. Exactly. Run after a car. Yeah. So did you...
Did you guys take off or what? Yeah, we took off and Blake was driving and I remember he panicked, panicked. And I think we ended up getting jammed up at a light. We just rolled up the windows. That's what I'd imagine would happen. You get one block down and you hit the first red light. Yeah. Blake's in there.
No tint. Rolled the window up. Yeah, just keep looking forward. Pretend they're not there. Pretend he's not there. Pounding on the window. One time in elementary school, this pretty much bully was chasing me and my buddy Chris. We were pretty small, but we were kind of heckling him. And we're just walking home from school. Oh, so you deserved it. And we were carrying our sleds, like saucers.
He's like, hey, you know, get over here. Because we were kind of heckling him. And we're like, oh, he's actually coming after us. Like, he's, you know, he's going to, like, throw us down or some shit. And we threw our sleds behind us, like, you know, as, like, a decoy. All right, throw your sleds. Run. And he slipped on the sled, like, full-blown, you know, woof, like, airborne to the back in the middle of, like, an intersection. Like, small town, so no one was driving. But just on his back. Oh.
And we're like, we got him. Let's go. He just ditched the sledge. And then the next day at school, they beat the shit out of him. We beat the shit out of him? No, he beat the shit out of him. He's like twice our size. Mike was a bully, though, in high school. Yeah. Or middle school. I just said it was trickle down. So it makes sense that he was bullying. The hierarchy. Mike got beat up first period, but second period, he wouldn't kick someone else in the ass.
But just with a little less creativity than the original bully. Yeah. Yeah. One time I got pushed down to the ground in fourth grade by
By, like, the local bully. Wasn't his name, like, Reed or something? Ray. Ray. That's right. Such a bully name. Yeah, you name your kid Ray, he's going to be a bully. Really? Yeah, bro. I think Ray is a super fruity name. Oh, really? I can't think of anyone. Ray is, like, he's going to be overweight. He's going to be just, like, fruity? Yeah.
I envision Bib over us. Ray? When I think of a Ray, I think of like... Ricky's dad from Trailer Park. Yeah. I think of like tattoos, but weathered tattoos. I just went to sugar Ray. Ripped sleeves, so not a cut off, but like ripped so you can still see that it's like, you know, he's strong enough to tear them off himself. Probably bald. Yeah.
And just an asshole. So is this what the kid looked like in the fourth grade? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, like the fake first certificate. So why did he push you to the ground? I remember hearing about this at the time it happened. Like it was like, yeah, Ben's all scun up because you got beat up at recess.
Yeah, it was at recess. Yeah, I remember it. I don't really remember the context. What'd you do to, like, why would he go after you? I don't know. I'm trying to think of that. You were probably running your mouth. You were really small. Ben was really, really small. I could have been running my mouth. But that doesn't sound like something I would do. I could see it. So he just shoved you or did he hit you or what? I was running. I was running, trying to get away from him.
And he pushed me and it was on like asphalt. Oh, we're still talking shit as you were probably. Did you start crying? I don't know. Did you just get up and go to class or do you have to go to the nurse? No. And then I had to go to the nurse's office and I was like gushing blood like everywhere. Really? Yeah. Do you guys ever just like you'd be at school that day? This was mostly, I guess, elementary school would be.
But like, say you're at, you're at class and you're just like, fuck, I really don't want to be here. This is boring. You're looking at the time. You're like, let's see, maybe I can get out of this. So you go to the nurse's office. You're like, I don't feel very good.
Then, no. I did that once. I thought that was only in cartoons. No, I'd do that in real life. And sometimes it works, sometimes it wouldn't. You'd just go home, you'd have your parents come pick you up. Just because you just didn't want to be there. Then you had to pretend like you were sick for the rest of the day, so it was a pain. Because then you'd have to lay in your bed and watch TV. I could never bring myself to call into work just because... Whenever I was surrounded by people that do that, just...
Yeah, why don't you just call in? Tell them you're sick. And I'm like, that's lying. And they're like, so? And I'm like, they need me. They need my help. I agree. It's way different than elementary versus having a job. Yeah, when I had a job, I was like... When I worked for, let's say, at the gym or even when I washed cars, I was like their go-to guy, which I kind of...
almost made an issue for myself because I'd always say yes. If they called, hey, we're short a guy. We need you. I'd always show up. That's what I mean. If you're working at like a restaurant and there was only like five people on the staff on a slow night. It's pretty inconsiderate though. If you just like ditch out and then someone else, it was supposed to be their day or they're not supposed to work right there. So then they were maybe had something planned and then they end up calling them. For instance, me in some cases, then it's like, okay, I guess. And you have to like cancel whatever you were doing. You go in. Yeah.
It's also probably just comes down to like the type of person they are. If they're cool with just calling in and lying, being like, yeah, I'm sick. Yeah, like those people aren't the guy. Or like, I'm not feeling good, but they're just hungover or like something like that. That's what I mean. I think it's like it's a lot deeper than just like calling, you know, it's like it reflects on the type of person you are. Right. I used to go to my jobs hungover a lot. I never do it here anymore. Yeah, he just stays drinking on the job.
But when I would, I was the Saturday. Actually, I wasn't the Saturday manager. I was the nighttime manager pretty quickly at the car wash that I worked at. And I would always show up hungover when I had to work Saturdays.
It was pretty slick. You show up and then you just go sit in a car you're supposed to be detailing and take a nap. Really? I mean, you wouldn't like just straight up zonk out, but like you would like wipe the dash a little bit and lay back and pretend that you're cleaning something on the floor for a bit. That's so funny. Ryan brings like a pillow and sleeping bag, opens up the trunk, crawls in.
When I used to work landscaping, I was even younger yet. I was like 1920 and after drinking too many soda pops all night. One time I was so tired and hungover. We were laying flagstone pavers. You're on your hands and knees like moving rocks. And I basically was so tired that my head just went down and I fell asleep on the rock.
Wow. Face down. Like that. Like my boss came over and thought I was like dead. I was just like face down. He woke me up. Yeah. And I was like, oh shit. Sorry. I was probably the worst. I feel at work nap. I've had my hangover advice.
You got to just keep moving. You got to get up. You got to get going. Yeah. Well, Burt Kreischer's thing is punish yourself, right? Like he says, he's like, you chose this. Yeah. Get up, work out, make yourself feel better, and then get going, which I agree. Yeah. Sometimes it's just so damn hard, though. I think it lasts longer, though, if you lay around. Oh, yeah. It's like a band-aid. You got to get up, get moving. Rip that shit off. Start drinking again or stop drinking again, but either way, you got to get going. Yeah. I think the worst part is...
Go figure. This is different than laying around. Like, I can sleep it off. I can just sleep it off. We know that, Mike. You can sleep it off when you're not hungover. You couldn't even have been drinking. You'd sleep it off. Yeah, I can sleep. Is anyone else here a child? Big Grinch has some. Oh, okay. Is he bringing a kid to work today? Oh, yeah. We'll do the rest of the podcast whispering then. Because Big Grinch has his children.
I think the hardest part about most hangovers is they're usually on a Sunday. And then it's paired with the Sunday scaries of just like now you're sitting back, hungover, reflecting on the decisions that you made the last two days. And then you're thinking about the decisions that you got to make for the next five days to get through like the week. And it's like, oh, this is not good. Dude, if it means anything to the people at home.
we at least i have the sunday scaries oh yeah and like you would think we wouldn't but like it's just a normal thing yeah it is everybody goes through yeah so you're not alone on that ev has this show that he likes to watch mainly when he's going to bed after drinking but i feel like it's also definitely on in the mornings it's like ev's hangover cure it's called carts of darkness it's a very obscure youtube documentary
And funny, it works. I saw this video, and this is some real Carts of Darkness shit right here. Guy gets absolutely bodied. Oh, no. Oh, I don't know if I want to watch this. They just send them into a wall, don't they? Dude, there's just no way this goes well. No! Oh!
What the fuck were they doing? I mean, there was definitely no positive outcome to that. Bro, that's worse than anything Jackass did. They used to do that shit with the carts where they'd like push them and then hit the curb and they'd go into a bush. That right there was fucking bad. That was just dumb. There was, yeah, there was no good. There's concrete. I,
I still think I'd rather do that than be strapped to a rocket like Johnny Knoxville. That? Yeah. When Johnny does the rocket, he goes to the water, bro. I still think I'd rather... Straight to the concrete? No, how did it? He did a front flip. I'd take the rocket too, Micah. You're insane. If you think...
Like 30 miles an hour just slamming straight to the concrete face. If you go fast enough, you do a full front flip. No, no, I don't think that's how that works. That guy might have gotten lucky. I see what you're saying. He might have fully flipped and then landed on his back before he hit. So he only broke his back. It's kind of like saying break your bone as soon as it touches the concrete. It's a maybe. Yeah.
Oh, bro. No, slaughter for sure. It's kind of like saying if you clip the guardrail on the interstate with your car fast enough, you can do a barrel roll.
That was your logic right there. Yeah, but you'd have to move into it extremely, extremely fast sideways to do a barrel roll. But you're using some fricked term of logic to try to figure out that you're like, no, I would feel safer than this because I'm just going to do a front flip.
Yeah, I'm just saying I would rather do exactly what he did than strap myself to the rocket. You're not even strapped. You're just holding on to the rocket and you just go into the... Well, didn't he like... It's not much different than you jumping a bike off into the... Have to get his urethra replaced after that? No, that was from a dirt bike accident. Oh. Tried to do a backflip and the bike landed on him. Something did happen with the rocket too.
though the rocket the rocket exploded but it exploded like I want to say like six inches away from his oh yeah his uh lagger head or something so it was almost super bad chest I think but yeah Mike that one just makes no sense
I'm sorry. Well, at least now we know. Yeah. When we want to grab our friend to a rocket, we got Ev. And when we want to push our friend down the hill in the shopping cart, we got Mike. We do have a couple carts down there if you want to run it, Mike. Well, luckily for Mike, we don't have a single hill in the Cormorant area. We do have a few machines that can generate speed, though. And we do have a mechanic that can build us a rocket. Banshee bungee. Oh.
Banshee bungee into a wall. Wait a minute. Now that's a bad... Has anyone waked the shopping cart yet? How the fuck would you do that? You'd have to put it on board. Just the metal grate somehow is just floating on the... If you go fast enough, it should skip. I'd agree with that at a very, very high speed. Did you guys see in the last video, actually, a lot of people were commenting... The top comment is that we have to water skip the big wheel.
It's impossible. Yeah, I don't really think it... It definitely has more surface area, but I don't think it would be easier. No, and 250Fs are like hardly faster to skip in the first place, and then that one's like slower. Do you think the big tire would help, though? More surface area? Maybe it would, yeah. It'd probably make you hydroplane for a second, but to like actually skip successfully, there's no way. You could like skip across a puddle, maybe. I've seen you do that on a normal bike. Do you really have to sink this 250F? Yeah.
That's a pretty nice bike. Even though it's not Evans anymore, he still is emotionally attached to it. I don't get too emotionally connected to that one. Really? It's not a two-stroke. It's not his KTM. Two-strokes, on the other hand, there's a special bond you form with them.
Surprised you don't have that sleeping in the bed with you. It's hard to fit through the door. Do we need to build you a bigger room? Is that what you're asking for right now? I just cut out a couple notches on each side of the door frame for the handlebars to go through. That'd be pretty funny. Didn't Slim put his bike in his basement? Yeah, he puts it in the basement every winter. And then he domed his head riding it out. Why?
kind of to make space in the garage for vehicles that has to go somewhere. He's got room in the basement. Looks cool. And it looks cool, yeah. Yeah, if you shine it up and it's clean, it's kind of like, it's fucking sick. And I think he does like, you know, like a full service on it. Pulls everything apart. Really? Really nice. Over the winter, yeah. I kind of want to put some stuff in my house. You should put a dirt bike in your house, dude. That'd be sick. You don't have furniture? You should just put everything that shouldn't...
Be in a house. You can put your three-wheeler. You can sit on that. Get a smart car, put it upstairs. Yeah, I kind of like that idea. Then it'll feel like the shop at your house. That'd be great. Didn't Slim kind of go like medium viral for that when he drove it up the stairs and smoked his head? That video went crazy. Yeah, I never successfully made it. You didn't? That was the last one, yeah, this last year.
You just drug it out of the basement, didn't try to ride it again. Was Stacy, his wife, pissed when she came home and there was burnout marks on the stairs? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, she claims to be pissed, but I don't think she was too mad. It's whatever. She got over it, yeah. Respect to Slim for doing a burnout up the stairs in his house. Yeah, it's so legit. You got to turn the music down.
Smoked his head on that. It was like the little bean. The double whammy, too. The little bean on the top of his hat just smoked his head. Oh, Slim, dude. I love that he cares enough to put his dirt bike inside.
because he cares so much about the bike. Well, some people care about their stuff, Ben. But he's okay with riding up the stairs and destroying the flooring downstairs, on the stairs, upstairs, probably dented the ceiling. Way harder to replace than just your bike being cold. Yeah.
We should go back and notch out a slim head-sized hole in his stairway right there so he can do it successfully. I miss that guy. Me too. Yeah, we got to get him up here. Down here. We're south. Over. Yeah, we're technically like straight west. Straight over. I actually have kind of a bit of like an OCD thing about that. People will be like, oh, I'm headed north.
I'm headed down to Minnesota from you and they're like coming up Rich said it our buddy who builds tracks he goes yeah I finally made it down here and I was like Rich you drove 1500 miles straight north I think we're used to saying down because typically anywhere we go is technically down up to Canada yeah 100% go out west I would never say we're going down to Canada that'd just be weird yeah so when you're at home
Correct your friends. They love it. I correct my friends all the time and they tell me how much they like it. Yeah, that's probably one of my favorite things about you actually, Ryan. It's my favorite thing about everyone. Everyone's so good about making sure that we're, you know, just being better. Acutely aware of us being idiots. What do you guys think about Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg potentially becoming
an MMA fight. No chance. I think it's only too good to be true. Yeah, I don't think they're going to do it. But for the sake of the story, I did see that the France government is offered up the like Colosseum Colosseum. Wow. Which would be fucking legit. They should fight to the death.
Isn't it amazing the time we live in? Like, no other time in history was like, let's get the two richest men on the planet and have them fight each other. Yes. Boxing style. They'll do it in space. Oh, man. That would be incredible. On the Titanic? Jeez, Ev. I feel like they're more space guys than ocean guys.
I know it's crazy, but like, I wouldn't be that surprised if it happened. Yeah, bro. I mean, it makes sense because Elon's cool and Mark actually trains,
which is quite different than boxing, but it does seem like he's about it. If he goes to jujitsu competitions, he's clearly not afraid of getting hurt because you can get slammed down and whatever else. And Elon would just do it for the culture. I just don't foresee it happening, man. Their brains are their most important things. You think they're going to box each other?
I mean, if they do it, I hope they do it. That'd be so, so cool and so funny. It'd probably be the biggest boxing event. I feel like everybody would watch that. Quite possibly in the world. It would be, 100%. Because it's just so strange and it's tying in
Everyone, because it's not just two boxers that only boxing fans know. It's, you know, moguls of the world. Dana wants to be like the promoter, put it on. Fuck yeah, he does. Yeah, no shit. And anyway, it was a clip of him being like, these boxers coming together trying to make a show, but this is just stupid. Like two people that shouldn't be fighting each other shouldn't be entertainment. Then the next guy is, yeah, so I just got off the phone with Mark Zuckerberg and
and Elon Musk sounds like they're both interested in fighting. So hopefully we can make this happen. The only way to never be wrong is never say anything. Never say anything. Yeah, that's true. No, I think honestly, though, like crazy things have happened, and I wouldn't be that surprised. Yeah, I agree. But going off of what Ryan said, his statement about never say anything, because then you can never be wrong.
So I like recently I've been like trying to get back into working out and all this. I'm looking at the, there's like health bands and whatever that like track your health, you know, so you can do like a whoop or a Fitbit or even, even the Apple watch possibly. Oh, so with the whoop, you got to like pay a monthly thing and same with like the other brands and
I think there's a ring that you can do as well. Oh, yeah. And I just had to immediately be like, well, can't do the Apple Watch. I talk too much shit on them. Yeah, that'd be a tough look. Yeah, I can't go back on it. I would accept you right in. But it would be nice, though, to have it just to monitor my health. That's the only reason I want it, just so I could see. It watches your sleep, doesn't it? Yeah. That'd be fascinating to me. But it is funny because I don't work out. I don't hit the gym. So all the fitness stuff that they're compact with,
It's just useless to me. No, it counts my steps. You guys could share. Just envision the activities Mike's doing and what the watch thinks he's doing. What's he doing? Oh, wow. 35 minutes on the Shakeway today. It says that.
yeah when I'm like out dirt biking it shakes around and it goes record outdoor cycle and I'm like it's counting all these calories and yeah it's like man this guy's a Lance Armstrong that's one thing dude I was looking at the watch the Apple watch seems more versatile because it actually can do a few more other things that I
probably wouldn't use but tells you the time and it's cheaper you don't have to pay a subscription no it's just a little band and i i was looking i was like god i'm not gonna wear this thing everywhere it looks kind of lame our buddy uh around here he wears a nice watch and then so he got the whoop band because i was like he's he was like i had an apple watch but i can't wear two watches the day cj gets a workout band is when rolex makes one
No, yeah, that's actually a good point. I'd rather just wear the rollie and then wear the wool. I think I'd do the ring one. So, yeah, I just don't seem like a ring guy, but... No. But then if you're like, oh, it tells me that I slept good last night. Fuck, do I wear it on my pinky? No, I think it's your index, maybe your middle. So whether it tells you you slept good or you slept bad...
what usefulness is that? That's a good point. All the stuff it tells you is irrelevant. It makes you feel better. Cause like you can prove that you did something today that you didn't just sit on your ass. But I think all they do is make people feel good.
They're a waste of money and time. You're right. Such a great point. You're right. Such a fantastic point. I would just wake up and go, last night you drank 12 teas before bed. In order to sleep better, don't drink 12 teas before bed. That's true. I don't want to know that. I did kind of come to that realization. I was like, I mean, I probably know what I need to do if I want to get better sleep or whatever. But I was just interested.
And seeing, you know, I guess the data. I saw somebody on the boat this other weekend and they had a, like a very noticeable tan line from a whoop band. And I was like, Oh, you like wear it a lot. Like whatever. Did you like it? Cause I was looking into it and he goes, yeah, I wore it straight for two years. And he goes, I got so dialed. I know exactly what the band's going to tell me. Don't eat after eight o'clock. Don't have this type of food. Like make sure you exercise. It tells you that. Yeah.
Wow. Now I'm more interested. You need someone to tell you not to eat a snack before bed? No. You're right. I do know that. You're right. I do. When I go and I grab a cookie at 10 o'clock at night, I know I shouldn't eat it. And then I go back for the second. I know for a fact. I'm like, this is not good. You should get a magic eight ball and just ask that what to do. I have one of those. I actually do have a magic eight ball from when I was a kid. Really? Yeah, of course, bro. Those things are sick.
I was like, yeah, so my whoop band's been pissing me off. Told me I was unhealthy yesterday. Oh, bitch. Yeah, and I was just pissed because I had a great day. I sat at the bar from 12 to 12.
That's a shift. Ryan, a couple podcasts ago, you were saying how with me and CJ, we stick to our word, right? And I said, yeah, it's all fun and games until it gets you in a sticky position. CJ right here, he's in a sticky position. I'm not really. Well, yeah, but you just... I know I can't do that. Yeah, if you do that, if you do that and somebody takes a picture of you at the gym and it gets leaked...
Bro. Yeah, you maybe want a little. I'll do it. I'll do it. I would take advantage of that. You guys would. I know for a fact you guys would be taking a pic, so that's why I can't. 100%. 100%. I think, but if you really full circle, you could go, listen, I started looking into the benefits like you did, and you go, I found a usefulness for it now. I didn't think it was cool to get my text message on my phone and wear it as an accessory piece, which is what you thought. But you go, now I found this usefulness.
Yeah, but I mean, I feel like you have to live under a damn rock to not know an Apple Watch tracks your fitness. I didn't know how in-depth it did. That's the first thing they did when it first came out. I just thought it did steps. Like, I was like, I don't really care about steps. It's not a pedometer. You guys remember those? Those are pretty fucking cool. You have to go home and shake it. Put it on your waistband. Yeah, you get them in gym. Yeah. I had one because my mom had one, so I was like...
Can I wear it sometimes? And then she probably wore it for a week and then I got to wear it. When I was in college for the short stint, I took health class. And part of the health class was you had to get 10,000 steps every single day. And then you had to submit...
uh basically like a screenshot or some kind of form showing that you got 10 000 steps right well i wasn't getting 10 000 steps and i i wasn't gonna about to go to the track and do it so i just got really good at just photoshopping it that's where i learned to photoshop you you cut in the top of the screen and you put in the bottom so it shows your steps yeah every week i had the same amount of steps do you guys remember uh power balance bands you
Yeah, bro. And then they came out that it was a sham. Oh, who would have thought? No. Fake. Fake. And they sold them for like 20 to 30 bucks, depending on which one you got. You ever have a kid in your class that was like, they bought the fake ones and then would sell those for 15 or whatever? Everything. It's all mental, dude. That's what it was.
All mental. But no, it was weird. You go into Shields and the salesman would like do the test with you. And they'd be like, see, yep. Isn't that cool? You got to have one. Yeah, they'd put it on. And then, no, they'd be like, all right, stand here. And then they'd like push you back. Just like hardly. And you'd like take a step back. And then they'd put it on you. And then they'd do it again. But obviously now you're expecting it. So you're like going to add a little resistance when it comes.
And then you're like, oh, my God. Wow. See, look. Gravity. Ever since I got this power balance band, I haven't gotten blown over in the wind once. But it's like, yeah. And then people would they would, you know, if a buddy did that to you, they're like, oh, yeah, I could see that. But then if the salesman at Shields does that to you, you're like, well, the salesman said that. So, like, obviously. The fuck was that guy getting out of it? He was just calling a bunch of people. And he's just like, was he getting a commission off those things or what? Yeah, sure. Probably.
But, you know, you always got to wonder if you should be buying something from a guy that rolls up on a Segway. That's true. They are bad news.
Did you know the guy that invented the Segway died because he drove it off the Grand Canyon? What? We should fact check this. That is the story I heard. No way. Because he drove it off a cliff. On accident? As far as I know, he didn't leave a note. When you search up how did the inventor, that's the first thing that comes up. Okay. Jimmy...
Zinn didn't invent the Segway, but he was the company's owner when he tumbled off a cliff while riding an all-terrain Segway. Oh, that's not a good look. Okay, so it wasn't the Grand Canyon. No, at least, dude, he was about it. Close enough. He was about it. He was riding his Segway, his creation around the Grand Canyon and fell in. That's...
On that note, man, that's tough. What about the little Amazon segues, like the foot segues without the big stick and the handlebars? I feel like the stick is a lot cooler with the handlebars. It just looks more official. Like a mall cop. Yeah, like the mall cops were all strapped with those things. There's something about when you're on that thing. It just demands, like, you know,
Don't say respect. I was going to say the lack. You're a respect, and you have authority. Like, that's what it just yells out at everyone. Like, I'm in authority. CJ starts rolling around the shop on a Segway. I could see Ken having one. I could see Ken having one, too. He's riding around the merch bay.
Another foot and a half taller? Driving around a Segway, I feel like you should be giving orders to people. Ken would roll around on the Segway with the stick and the bars, and then all of his minions would be rolling around with just the Amazon Segways. This is so much more efficient.
It's like a mother duck. You just plug them in at night. There's traffic jams. And we walk back there and there's stripes on the ground. Everyone's got their own lanes. You can only fit half the amount of shelving in there, but it's so much more efficient. They would crash every day. You had to fulfill orders on a hoverboard.
Yeah, I could actually see it, though. It'd be like a one-wheel. It'd be like one-wheeling around. That'd be like the cool mall cop rolls up. On a one-wheel. It'd be like the skater cop. Yo, what up, fellas? What up, fellas? What's going on here? I do have a bit of a question to pose for you guys. We've talked about it before, and I just had this new realization. You know, we've talked about girls and OnlyFans, and if you would let your girlfriend have an OnlyFans, or if you would encourage it. And it came to me.
Are guys that are dating OnlyFans girls cocky? Yeah. It depends on the content. Yeah, it depends on the content. Your girls out there posting bikini or less and you're promoting it and you're commenting like, so hot, babe.
I don't think that's Kucky. Here's the thing, Ryan. I don't think so. I think they're just after the money. They're hustling, man. That's one thing. Yeah, but I mean, she's your girlfriend. You aren't getting any cash out of that. It's not like it's going into your bank account. Well, if she's paying for all your shit, it's your free ride. You better be taking a cut. Or if it's your wife. I think Kucky... That's when you... Kucky just seems kind of aggressive. It is an aggressive term. That'd be like for a guy that's dating a porn star, possibly. But that's the same thing. It's work, man. But like...
Maybe those guys kind of like their girlfriend being admired by a bunch of other people. Everybody wants a hot girlfriend, but nobody else wants to get in the way of them and their hot girlfriend. Okay. Do you think? I think so. I think so. I think so. I don't love the word, though. I don't know. In general, it's not that fun to say. When you listen to podcasts...
Like, I'll listen to No Jumper and sometimes they'll have, like, the porn stars on. I know Evan listens to them. Seems like oftentimes these porn star, you know, the gal and then the guy, they have, like, they're just, like, open. Like, they can do whatever. Yeah. That's maybe the extreme end of the vision. Maybe, like, you know, both ends. It's not one-way street. Your friend Peter and his girlfriend Tiffany, she's got an OnlyFans. A couple thousand people subscribe to it, do them pretty solid. You know, makes a couple grand a month.
He really loves it. He's like, it's cool. He's posting her pictures on his story. He's probably getting a cut. Check out my hot girlfriend posting nudes on OnlyFans. He's probably getting a cut at that point. Okay, there probably is some...
guys that do like that or or like that their girlfriend is being admired but i would imagine that a lot of times it's either about the money or they're just not stoked on it if you got no one hitting on your chick then maybe she's not that pretty that's what i'm saying like everybody wants yeah other people to think their girlfriend's hot but nobody wants
the other guys to tell their girlfriend that they think that they're hot. Yeah. I'd say everyone wants to date a hot chick. Yeah. No one wants the hot, you know, the, like the, the problem with dating a hot chick is everyone thinks she's hot. And then, you know,
You're going to have guys trying to make some moves. You're going to be walking around with clenched fists all the time. Yeah, what are you going to do? Fight everyone that fucking looks their way? And there is guys like that. There is guys like that. Yeah. Stay out of their way. Yeah, no kidding. What a stupid thing to get in a fight about. Well, there we go. I'm honestly intrigued on other people's thoughts on that. Ev, you got a street fight over a chick, did you? I was like 19, but yes. What about... Yeah, that's true.
Well, shit fellas, I hope everybody had a great 4th of July. We are about to. And we'll be back next Tuesday with another fresh podcast. Absolutely. We'll see you then. Cheers. Cheers.
