Well, you know, have you done a podcast with your mask off yet? No, not yet. You're getting the first one. I remember. I thought we talked about it last time, but I did want to hold off for you for the exclusive podcast. God, you're so beautiful. I can do you, dude. Yeah.
Try to get me down here to seduce me? Just bring me down here to come, dude. Dude, just hard cuss to a standing 69. Brandon's over there just shaking his head. It's like, this is the worst podcast ever. I was just here for the pizza, dude. A little weird. Yeah, you guys rolling a little fruity. All right. I'm being like really conscious of my hands now after the last podcast. He doesn't want to be called out for tism. Bro, that shirt. I want us to all wear that shirt.
Which one? The wolf one. What'd it say? Oh, God, there are two wolves. Oh, wait, hold on. Which one was it? You call it autism. I call it having that dog in. Do you see what I replied with? No, which one was it?
It should be in the chat. Fuck. I'm going to look right. Oh, yep. Yep. Yeah. If we all just get the dog, just I'll walk around with the dog in me has been euthanized. It's so over. It's so over.
But now you're back. You haven't been back in, whew, I, dude, it's almost coming up on a year since we did this. Really? No. When? No, it was the last big range day we did. Yeah, the big range day was cold out. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Back when it was cold in Texas. Do you remember that? I remember that fondly. You guys survive your summer, dude. Bro, it was, this was a brutal summer. This is why everyone wants to stay tuned with Unsub, is listening to weather. It was bad back in Arizona, man. It was bad back in Arizona. Come to Texas, they say. It'll be fun, they say. And then they come down here, like, you don't get to see the...
The July, August where it's 120 fucking degrees every time you walk outside. Don't get me wrong. I'd never live anywhere else, but fuck me. It's hot. It's hot, dude. Dude, that walking outside was like Sunday. I walked outside. I was like, whoa. Staff was like, you okay? I was like, no, it's really nice out. I was taking a bag. It's like 70. I like walked outside my house and I felt the same temperature. It was beautiful. We're having an e-strip. It was nice. We're in motorcycle weather, baby. Are your flip-flops on?
Still, yeah. We're now approaching the weather where I can now wear boots and not sweat to death. Boots and a helmet and not sweat to death. That's nice. I love it. You're the only human that wears flip-flops like me while riding, and I have fucked my feet up multiple times. You showed me the one time you fucking wrecked that dirt bike, and you trashed your feet. I'm done. Dude, bikes scare me, dude. He will never be able to sell his foot picks. No. They're fucking destroyed. Well, they got, like, all my friends...
Fucking... Yeah, those are pretty nasty hogs. It's like fucking tattoos. The dogs are barking, bro. Those are barking on the statue, asshole. I need to get yours next and yours. Oh, you're going to get a tattoo of me on your feet? Yeah. Some sort of like memento? Yeah. Dude. I feel like literally I just get everyone's fucking... Shit, demos was the worst because the tattoo artist didn't know how to tattoo. I knew she was a terrible one because I sat down and was like, hey, just do it. Will's done every other one. I was like...
I'm going to just trust this random stranger. And I was like, oh, just this. It was D-R with a bullet. And I knew I was in a bad position because she was like, well, it's hard because it's upside down for me. I'm like, oh, Jesus. Uh-oh. Oh, no. This isn't going to go. And then it just felt like she took a razor and she's like, okay. And I was like...
Oh, that was really deep. Holy fuck. And I just watched blood come out. Yeah, she filleted my toes. It was amazing. Jesus. Before we did the ghost hunt, me and Cody were talking about, you know, supernatural. We were talking about getting the anti-possession charm, like tattooed on the chest. And then, yeah, my girlfriend at the time told me that that was gay. So I didn't do it. You're like, nuh-uh.
Man, I like Supernatural. I thought it was cool. Broken clocks, right, like twice a day. Is it? Now that you're back, you're back in the, like, how much do you actually tell the world of your, like, now that you're faceless or maskless, do you go into your past? Yeah, dude, I get on my flights and I'm like, hey, do you know who I am? I should be in first class. First class, of course. Why aren't you, do you, like, I have a, I'm a niche micro internet celebrity. Do you not play ball with this?
You know, go to restaurants. I'm like, I don't have a reservation yet. Can you see me? I'm the most famous person here in East Mesa. Yeah, come on.
So all the time, dude. I really throw that clout around. No, never, dude. Not that. I mean, like, your previous job. Like, talking about it publicly. Not, like, in fucking public. I was like, I'm not a sociopath. Why would I ask you a question? Do you go around and brag about yourself, bro? I'm just wondering. Yeah, yeah. Do you just go to Italian restaurants and just flop your dick on the table and...
You know this dick? Yeah, I do. This is unlimited breadsticks. It happens, dude. It happens every once in a while. People will be like, bro, you have a YouTube channel? I'm like, yeah, man. It's doing good. And they check it out. They're like, oh, it's doing really good. But no, your previous jobs, because you used to talk about being a cop and all that. Okay, now are you discussing that? Yeah.
Yeah, some of the guys have hit me up. They're like, dude, I had no idea you had a... Like, one of my guys that used to train me on FTO just texted me out of the blue the other day. Like, he quit before I did and moved to Puerto Rico, and he's living his best life, but he messaged me. He's like, dude, yeah, text. He's crushing it. He speaks Spanish. His wife's a nice Puerto Rican mama. He's living his best life. He messaged me. He's like, yo, dude, I had no idea because I saw one of your things on TikTok. I didn't realize you were a YouTuber. I was like, yeah, dude.
It kind of took off, you know? Cause you were like very secretive about like, I was, yeah. And you did, you and like, it's crazy watching you individuals like you swagger souls. It's the, the dudes that stay masked for as long as you did. And then you, you did a good job of like controlling that. Not the best job. Not the best job. It was. Yeah. Yeah.
That ground's always the back ground. Anybody with like a bachelor's degree could have figured that one out, really, to be honest. Whoever was the piece of shit who doxed him, congratulations, fuckhead. You did the bare minimum. Yeah, it played out how I was hoping. It really worked out well for the doxing. I'm happy it played out how it did. You know this guy's fucking attractive, goes to church and has a hot wife? What?
What an asshole. Touch grass, bitch. I didn't think it was going to do as well as it did. So when I filed my LLC, I filed it like under my name and my address. Cause like, there's no way this will be a, like a thing, like in a little bit, like I thought I was going to die off eventually. And then sure enough, the train kept doing good. So I was like, Oh geez, this is like, this is not good. Cause people had found me out before. They were like, I found your info on the internet. And I was like, Oh yeah, you got me. All right. Yeah. It's why it's never like made a public thing. So.
So now you're actually talk about your, like your previous work and everything. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. I absolutely will. So did you actually work on a, Oh yeah, no, I actually was on any reservation. No shit. Yeah. Oh yeah. How do you follow their rules with, cause they, their rules are completely different. So how it actually works is they sent me to the sheriff's office police Academy. So you get certified to be an AZ post, which is the peace officer certification. And then you get back and they're like, raise your right hand.
And they swear you into the res and like, you're now a res cop. That's it. So they wanted people that have certs, but to be a res cop, they could just swear anybody in and it could be a res cop. No shit. But you don't have the power. If that was the case, you don't have the power to enforce like state law. So they need people that can enforce state law. And then, uh,
you do enough where you go and you get trained on how to enforce certain federal laws. So you get state, tribal, and federal. You're not a fed. So you're a fed. No, no, no. I wasn't a fed. I had to be certified to enforce certain federal crimes. Such as the NFA? No. No. There's none of that. But there is no second amendment on it. This was going to be a second unmasking right now. Oh, I know, right. No. We're just blessed. Freeze! We can pull this shirt off. It's ATM. Ah!
Sewer slide. Yeah, no. So there are certain laws. So it's crazy. Sewer slide? It's crazy. On the res, if a white person on the Indian reservation, or not a white, if a non-native assaults a Native American as a federal crime on the Indian reservation. What about vice versa? If a native assaults a non-native, that's just a tribal crime.
Which is charged differently. I could be hazy. It's been, it's been a couple of years. All right. But yeah, so there's, and then there's like federal trespassing because if you're non-native on a tribe and you're in there like, Hey, you have to leave and you don't leave. There's becomes federal trespassing. So there's certain things. Yeah. Yeah.
So that's why they needed that. It's not necessarily like you're a fed. It's like, you need some of those laws to enforce if that's the case. That's one of those crazy things. Cause I would not be, it's no different than military being over there. Cause you're like, you're policing there. You're winning the hearts and mind. And they're like, they're stoning that woman. You can't do anything. Huh? Yeah. Well,
You sure? Nope. Okay. This seems morally not like a good thing. I don't think I'm winning her heart and mine because I can currently see both. Hey man, I think we're going back to the Old Testament on this one. Yeah, they're still there. I want to come over to my place and get totally stoned, LOL. LMAO, he who cast the first stone. It just goes super hard out the gate.
Yeah, this is a pretty aggressive start. We're like 10 minutes in. I know. G-Van will mix it around like he always does. Yeah, I'll make it good. Oh, retention beat, retention beat. Are you playing Subway Surfer right now? Get off your phone. How has it been since you've been like, the unmasking went according to plan? I just like the internet was just like, dude, he's fucking handsome. Is that Brad Pitt?
Were you expecting that part? No, that was a much nicer response than I was hoping for. I was just hoping to be like, hey guys, now we're trying to show up. And they're like, he's hot. And I was like, that's not. No, I'm just like. That weirds me out. I don't like that. I'm like, hey, come here. I'm just, I'm a regular. I'm one of the boys. I'm a little autistic, so. A little. A little. So am I. I haven't got to the part about English war bows yet.
Is that your tits of text? It's my octaves. If I get to choose a special interest. Eli, be fucking careful. He will talk about this for 20 goddamn minutes. Wait, hold the fuck on. This isn't even a joke. Yeah, this isn't a joke. Okay.
I'm buckling in. Eli, it's not good for retention. I've known this man for a couple of years and he's been in my house for the last three days. Yeah, this will take 20 minutes. This will take 20 minutes. And our audience is autistic, so they're going to love this 20-minute segment. Are you going to let him talk to you like that? Are you really going to let him talk to you like that? You better like this fucking video. You better subscribe.
Or unsubscribe. It's the name of the podcast. You can do whatever you want to do. No, go on about this bow thing. Hold on. Let me preference this. So growing up, dude, I loved archery. And it was like my first thing that really sparked the interest in a lot of stuff. And I remember like I would always try and make my own bows growing up. Eventually I got good enough to like, I remember like seventh to eighth grade summer, I was up by a lake and I made a bow and I finally spear fished a creature and
I'm not going to say where because technically I think it still violates game and fish law. But I spear fished a creature with a bow that I made. Statute of limitations. Yeah, you know what I mean. I smoked that fish, dude. It was sick. So then it's like I eventually grew up, got into guns, airsoft, became a cop, did the whole YouTube stuff. I had a day where I was like, dude. The airsoft part was a weird one.
Well, it's part of the nerd. It's part of the nerdism. Airsoft police officers. Video games. Right. I know. I know. It's all part of the nerd stuff, dude. There's a bunch of like anime titties around me, bro. Get out of here. I'm talking about it. Yeah. Oh, there's plenty of anime in the unsub house. There are no titties. You got me there. So it was like the weird, it was like the pipeline of interest. So I came back now. I was like, dude, I have disposable income. I could probably make an episode on this. So I bought an English war bow.
From Etsy, dude. I love this. About a hundred pound war bow as like the gateway entry. Because I was like, dude, I've been working out since I've been in junior high. Bro, that's a fucking metric shit ton. For recurve? Well, that's the bottom end of it, dude. That's the bottom end of the power spectrum of the bows. Oh, yeah, because the...
before we go on your tism, it is the steppe people, the Genghis Khan. Yeah, the Mongols. The Mongols, they would have like those huge motherfuckers and it's their style of how they have to pull it back. All right, you're scratching my surface. You're stealing my thunder. Let me get this.
So you can kind of think of it this way. So the English war bow is kind of like the AK of the bow world. You've got me back in. We're pulling him in while the Mongol bow is more of the AR of the bow world because it's a little more complex to make. I would have probably reversed that.
Well, here's why. Because the war bows are, it's still technically a war bow, I think, for the Mongols, if it's above like 80 pound draw. They consider that a war bow, I believe. And we were talking recurve bow? It's a recurve bow. Okay. Yeah. So you got to think it bends different ways. There's a lot of like composite material in that. They're a bit more complicated to make.
but they are more efficient. You can shoot them from a horseback. They're not as big, but they have a lot of power. I'm also going fucking tism tangent in this. What do you mean by composite material? So I believe they took different materials and compressed them together to make those bows. I'm not like too familiar on that. While you take a war bow from the English, which is just a long, bendy stick of U-wood.
So now they would get those you from, say, Spain, Italy, I think Switzerland, and they would use those as even taxes and import fees during the medieval era. Like they would request like, hey, if you're a trader, you have to pay the import taxes in you staves. So they would have definitely not France.
Definitely not France. The French were like, hey, dude, the French hated English archers. That's where this came from. They would cut off the fingers. I was going to go for that exact story. They would cut off the fingers. So it's a very simple weapon. You don't know that story? No, I don't know. I did not. Now my brain's like, wait, hold on. I don't know about this. So this whole being an insult?
In France? Is it France or UK? It's a British insult. So they would throw these up to the French like, hey, I still got my fingers. I still got my bow fingers. Because if they caught the bowmen, they would cut these fingers off so they couldn't work the U-bow anymore. Or they'd just kill them. Or they'd cut them off and then kill them, like in a sequential order. Back in the day, torture was pretty gnarly, dude. So you were basically just like fucking dabbing on the French like, hey, I still have my fucking bow fingers. So got my fingies. So got my fingies.

at adamandeve.com. Babe, let's go ahead. Okay, so composite. And then you have your U-bow, much more simple to make, very simple to make, but they were beefy and thick. And they would have, I think on, there was a ship that went down in the English Channel under King Henry VIII's rule. And on that ship, they found a very thick bow. They found a very thick bow that I believe was like a 200-pound drop.
But then this is where it even gets deeper in the debate because they're saying, well, feed somebody in that era enough to pull a 200-pound bow. And that's the thing, dude. Those guys were probably, what, 5'7 to 5'8, for that height scheme of that era. And they had a special technique to draw the heavy bows. I did watch a video on that. It was a special draw. It started low, and then how they positioned it and drove off the ground is how...
This might be the first episode too autistic for YouTube retention. That's true, dude. The retention beats are not there. Or it's going to be like 100%
It's just Facebook. It's the first perfect episode on YouTube. YouTube's like, what? Call them now. What did you do? We talked about bows. It's just a perfect line. Let him cook. Let him cook. We talked about bows in history. They were so happy. Yeah.
Christ. So we keep cutting you off. No, no, you're fine. You're fine. So they found that there's this argument where it's like, yes, it's a 200 pound boat, but do you think they would have left it beefy? And then they could have shaved it down a little bit to fit a specific archer's pole length. So it's all this stuff in the up in the air, but that's just being said is that that's like the max end of the power spectrum is like the 200 pound draws. And they don't really know for sure. That's just off the records they found from the era. And they had well-preserved like the soot and everything preserved everything in that ship when they pulled it up. That's crazy.
Yeah. I mean, you do find the deformed skeletons of archers from the era too, where their backs are just so weird and massive and their shoulders all different. But part of my theory was could a modern American man, you know, athletic ish growing up, lifting weights. Could he jump into and start? He just described himself as athletic ish. Okay.
Could he jump into and start pulling a war bow off, at least on the bottom end of the spectrum to the one of the 100, the 105 scale. And I have done it and I can, I can go rep for rep now. Is my actually the best? No, I mean, I'm pushing it now. I was shooting at like 70 feet and I was able to hit the target, but I'm not like, cause it's a lot of intuitive, like, or I mean, right.
It's a lot of intuition shooting. So you do like, you're not aiming. Like you pull it back past your ear, almost over to here. And then you're letting go. Yeah. Like you're not holding that arrow. Like it's the Northern rings. And they're like, hold. And it's like, what are you doing? Like, and it's raining too. You're drawing and losing. It's like, you don't have to lose.
Oh, God. Oh, geez. Nowadays, people are used to compound bows where all that pressure is released at the end. You can hold it out here for fucking half an hour. I think compound bows are cool. It's just not my flavor of the tism. Hence, I have gone on the war bow path.
Dude, I love it. That is actually now I get, like, that's me with, like, ARs and AKs. It's like, yeah, are ARs better at a lot of modern warfare things? Like, yeah, unmodified? Absolutely. Yes. But, you know, AKs, it's like, dude, I fucking, I dig the history behind it. Like, that's just every, the way that mechanically works. Like, that is just my, that's my flavor of tism. And you crush it, dude. Aw. Too good. I know. Even used to be your name was so beautiful back then. Yeah, it's almost like I changed it fucking...
five years ago and people still use it before they announce me for a fucking boxing match. Here is the AK guy!
I love Cody's behind the scenes on that where I'm just like, hey, be sure that you... I see everybody saying AK guy. I'm like, dude, that hasn't been my name in like five years. I'm like, I do other stuff now. If he could just use my name, they're like, oh, I'll make sure it happens. We got you. The AK guy. Yeah. That fight was awesome, by the way, dude. I appreciate that. That was a hype fight. Did you watch it live? Oh, of course I watched it live, dude. I was young on the TV. I was like, get those gloves off. Punch him in the face. Punch him in the face. I know he watched it live. Yeah. I watched it. I saw you guys in the... I saw... I was like, oh, there they go.
I was watching it live, dude. Oh, there's Eli, there's Cody. Oh, there's my brain, dude. Yeah, that was one of the highlights of my life. That was so fucking fun. I always had a dream of dunking. Core memory. Core memory. And it's so fucking fun, too. And I had a good relationship with James even afterward. Like, I really couldn't have asked for a better introduction to it. If I lose this election, I'm doing another fight.
I already made that. You should do it, win or lose. Do one more. Would you just train you up so I can get you hard? I'm worried about the time commitment if I win because I also want to do a good job with this other side quest that I've adopted, which we're already kind of crushing at it right now. By the way, if you want to support, you can go to BrandonHueroforCongress.com. I was thinking about this the other day. I'm like, man, if I end up losing this,
I want to do another fight because that was so fucking fun. I think we should all train up and do a fight. Dude, I would 100%. Would you do a YouTube fight? I would love to. Yeah. Have you ever fought? Yes. What'd you do? I was a prior cop. But boxing. Oh, boxing fight? Oh, no. Boxing, Muay Thai, BJJ. It was always just getting my butt kicked by DT instructors and then fighting people on the streets like crackheads. Oh, yeah. It is, as Brandon will tell you, getting into the ring with somebody that's trained is the most...
humbling experience one can have because you're like, why can't I even hit him? And the weird part too is the adrenaline dump before you get into a fight. Because you've had the adrenaline dump after a fight, like during a fight or after a fight. Getting it
three minutes before you fight is a fucking different animal. And controlling that heart rate and blood because you start like hyperventilating. Brandon, and then we gave Brandon a new mouthpiece before the fight so he's getting too much oxygen. So he was like...
The fucking people, the announcers are like, Herrera looks gassed in the red corner. I'm like, no, I'm getting too much. I'm hyperventilating. It was so gangster. I was like, oh yeah, he's not used to this at all. People have no idea, dude. They have no idea what goes into actual fighting like that. They just think, I see red bodies at the floor. It's like, no, dude. Not against someone that knows how to fight, too. You see red, you're going to swing it, and it's going to be like,
There you go. You're gonna wake up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're gonna wake up in a couple seconds. What, is the fight still on? Bro, this bro, he broke again. I should, you should have seen the other guy. It's like, yeah, he's fine. Yeah, he's fine. Blood coming from your eyes. Like, did I win? Like, no. No, you didn't, pal.
And then yours, like his, the training going into is awesome. And then watching that one, just a slip and jab that just started connecting. As you said, it was your mortal combat sweep. Yeah. When you realize you're like, okay, this is one move that like, I know he's going to fucking strike a certain way. I can counter it another way. So where I can take less damage and also hit him solid. It's like, all right, I'm now giving more damage than I'm taking. If I can just keep doing that.
And sure enough, before too long, like his, he was, the blood was clogging his nose and I could tell like he just wasn't getting enough oxygen, like starting to tunnel in. So it's like, all right, keep doing that. You just keep like just hitting the fucking off button. Yeah. Like, all right, this is a winning combo. He just couldn't, he couldn't stay in. And you fought a tall dude, which is like the hardest thing. Like reach is a big determining factor. Oh, I haven't talked about this yet. The original, so I fought a guy who was 10 pounds heavier than me.
I think five inches taller, five or six inches taller, and then had what his seven inch reach like home. But I was like, like, hey, we got to work on this. We got to work on this angles. I was like, they're tall, they're tall. We got to flip, flip the line. That was the perfect test for me as far as like knowing that like I'm actually using what you guys taught me. So because I couldn't have won any other way.
But the original opponent I had, Action Man, is literally a fucking recovered heroin addict. Kind of PC shit streamer guy. He got in trouble. He got in trouble. He got in trouble recently. With a law or what? Yeah. Imagine being dumb. Go on. I don't have to imagine. And then take that and make yourself dumber. So he was always very nice to me. I think he was doing this for clout. I think he even told me he was doing this for clout. He failed medicals because he's a...
heroin addict. Oh yeah. He, uh, but he recently, uh, he went on stream. He just popped a weapons charge. Oh, because he was on stream. I think, uh, I watched that video. I just watched that video. Yeah. I was talking to Caleb about it today. He, uh, he fucking, he pointed a fucking AR 15 at this, you know, chick that's in bed.
And just saying like to the camera, Oh, I'm a four time felon. Isn't this so funny? Yeah. He got arrested. Yeah.
This is on live stream. Taking his AR and doing this. Oh, dude. Surprise Pikachu, the cop showed up. Yeah, that's weird. Hey, man, you can't do that. You can't do that. Oh, bro. There's breaking the law and then there's breaking the fucking law. Just being dumb about it. Just being super stupid about it. You're like, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's one thing to be a four-time felon. Four-time felon holding a rifle is one thing.
To be a four-time felon holding a rifle, talking to a livestream saying you're a four-time felon holding a rifle, and then pointing it at a fucking bystander? That's, yeah, that's kind of very, very scummy behavior. Not great. I'm kind of glad that I'm not linked to him in that way, no. I do like Oompa gave you that shoutout. He was like, my boy would have beat his ass!
I was just hyping Brandon. I was like, I like that. I was in the beginning. I was originally like planning to take it to two rounds, like figuring out how to take it to two rounds. Cause I could have beat him in the first. Cause that he wasn't training his drinks. He was drinking like, because he got replaced smoking, like doing fucking dad ribs, like up to the fight or two weeks. Right. Yeah. So like, yeah. Cause I think he fell like the last two, two weeks out from the fight.
He failed medicals. He literally couldn't get medically approved to be healthy enough to fight. Yeah. Fellas. Hey, fellas. We all want to be prepared for that moment. But sometimes, you know, when you're junk, it smells like cheese. That's why I'm excited for today's sponsor, Mando. No longer will it smell like Limburger down there.

Opponent, opponent, opponent. And then finally, um...
Yeah, James. Yeah, James signed up for it. And shout out, James. He's fucking rad. Yeah, he's a really nice guy, dude. Really was. Yeah, we met up like a week and a half later. We were talking about it off camera, but you guys didn't have any of like the unnecessary beef talking. Yeah. You know, the manufactured because like as a grown man, like I see that and it's like it almost feels like WWE ish when you see it. And you're like, why are you guys talking like this? You know, fucker like tick tockers.
dudes unless you actually have beef with someone and you want to make a good spectacle like sands of the coliseum style i get it but dude there is just a boxing and going to that d zone of whatever it's called the zine the zone the zone which you'd never know because their acronyms four fucking letters and they i will say that um oh it's a dean you've
Mo Dean? No, Dean, the black kid that was tinier and they pitted him up against the guy he hated, but he was teammates with them. He just had a fight. And shout out to him. He fucking broke his hand on the dude's face and dropped him. Damn. Then he... Then...
Then he beat his ass and knocked him out for an entire round with only his left hand. Cause he was like, I, he couldn't use his right hand. So he was like, fuck it. And just was teeing off on the motherfucker and dropped him with just his left. No shit. Yeah. I was like, okay, that dude's a fucking warrior right there. Yeah. But he'd shattered. Uh, it was this bone. It was his middle knuckle. Just split.
I'm sorry if I'm fucking this up. Is it Kamoza? The bare knuckle guy? I think when he won his title or his big fight, he won it
After he got his jaw broken. Ooh. Dude, those bare knuckle, dude, those are fucking brutal. Different breed, bro. Their teeth are pushing like Crit or Rockhold. Luke fucking had his tooth chipped. He had one tooth like gone and then the other one was like through his lip. Like he got fucked up. At first I didn't understand why he called it on that fight and then I saw the pictures. I was like, oh, yeah. Yeah, I don't think I'd want to fight either. I like Luke Rockhold a lot.
He's a cool guy. He was cracking up after one of his fights with the JRE, and he was like, Luke, what happened? He's like, I'm old, man. Yeah. I'm fucking old. I'm fucking old. It just happens. So with you, what are you doing –
First, I want to hear just one of your favorite police time reservation stories. Oh, yeah. I know you got two or three. I've got a few. They hit you in flashbacks, man. There was one I think of with this one woman, and she was like a five-foot-nothing, 300-pound woman. So a ball. Just a big old massive woman. A big old woman, dude.
I rested this chick a few times, like three times. I remember one in particular, she was huffing spray paint or it was like she was huffing something while driving. So this is a repeated offender. Yes. Yeah. It was either like DUIs or drug charges. And there's like the tolerances on the res are like nothing. So this one, she was huffing something. She hit a no texting and driving sign.
While she was driving, bailed out of the car and was trying to get home across the desert at night. And like, you gotta think this is on a res. So it's like pitch dark, dark. And so we go looking for this person. We don't know who it is in the middle of the desert. And we're sort of beat bottom along. And what happened was,
this fat woman fell into like a desert crevasse by like a river bed and it would have been like a like she didn't like break anything miraculously but it was like a 20 foot probably slide down and she's like stuck in this little wedge of dirt and I
And I remember thinking like the fire department guys were there. I was there. I was looking at it. I was like, Hey, do you guys got like a winch or something to get this lady out? Yeah. I was like, dude, there's no way. You guys like, Oh, she was so short and fat. I'm like, dude, I'm not carrying this chick out. I'm going to drag her up.
I'm strong. I'm not that strong. I'm just imagining you guys like hillbilly-ing that shit where you're like, all right, redneck ingenuity. You wrap it around her, try pulling her out, and she's so heavy, it just cinches and cuts her in half. Hey, you guys got that thing from Jurassic Park that used to lower the cows and just watch them after it? Clever girl. Clever.
I was like, dude, that one always sticks out to me. I think of that. Just, like, imagine she's so, like, short and fat of a person. Imagine her as, like, I can get home. And she's, like, running across the desert and just pitch black. And she's high off, like, huffing paint. And just, like, boom, into a riverbed, dude. I just picture looking down, you have this, like, just balloon and this little face. Just silver spray paint. Yeah.
Thank God it was silver, that way they could find it on the side of the highway. Ladies and gentlemen, we got him. And then they're just lowering you. I just picture you, they like harness you and you have to go down and grab her. And then they raise you back up, you're the claw machine. It's like interstellar, dude, I start spinning with her. So what's the weirdest thing you ever saw as a cop? Oh man, this depends. Sometimes things hit me that I totally forgot about. Weirdest thing, dude. That's kind of like asking us, like what's the weirdest thing we've seen in our career?
Like, dude, I've seen some wicked shit in the last 10 years. This is crazy stuff, man. Like just really weird situation that you roll into that that doesn't prepare you for in the academy. I remember one call. It was like a transgender woman had stabbed another woman at a house. I remember we're going to a woman is in like a dude transitioning to chick dude to chick stabbed another chick at that house.
So you show up to a house, there's always like chaos going on, you're trying to figure out what's going on, you start clearing the house, you get him out, but I remember being in the, like the, like just a weird situation, it's like you get in the living room, and the living room on the, and like some of the res houses are just not kept up, the living room has nothing but like dog piss and dog shit all in the living room on this carpet, and I'm being like, gross. This is gross, dude.
Where's our suspect? I don't want to step in any doo-doo. Yeah, I remember that. I remember thinking, like, I got to get out of here. This job's weird, man. This YouTube thing really has to work. God, please work, dude. This YouTube balaclava thing, please take off. Please take off. Yeah, I remember that. Eli, wake up. I know that the GhostBed pillow is super comfortable and has cooling technology, but we're shooting an ad right now. You mean this GhostBed pillow? That one. Cool.

of somebody who was like, they basically found a dead body in a home. And it was like two weeks later. And they had just melted through the couch kind of thing. And it was like, had dripped down to the stairs onto another couch, like that sort of thing. And he's like, I just show it to him. Like, damn, look at this. This is kind of fucked up. He's like, yeah, that's a typical week in policing. Yeah. Did he say people soup? Yeah. Yeah. He said people soup. Yeah. Yeah. See, it's so crazy. Like those stories, because mine are so different than that.
Police stories, I'm like, man, it's so messed up. I could never do it. And then in my stories, I'm like, yeah, it's just another day in Iraq. I think the nice thing is that...
I didn't see any of this shit. Well, to be fair, I grew up in Fayetteville, so that was kind of a combat zone. Yeah, you did tour, dude. Pointy cuts at a lot of people. That was your own war zone. Thank you for your service. I think the weird thing is... Fuck Brandon's 9-11. Yeah. Shut the fuck up. I joke around about that with a bunch of military guys. They're like, well, have you ever served? I'm like, no, no, no, no. I never did anything like that, but I did a 25-year tour in Fayetteville. They were like, oh, damn. Like...
God bless your son. But God damn, I want to deal with that. I think that it's a seeing the horrors of what you live around, like at home. I think that's what gets me, you know? Well, that's what makes it more like for me, it was so far removed from everything. Yeah. You had like getting home and you're like, where's my gun at?
Freak out But for the most part I'm like bah Very safe for the most part Yeah You're separate Completely from that Like war is war And I was like Come home I'm like okay I'm back in Civilization I'm not getting shot at Every day Yeah And then when we talk to Like the guests We've had on recently It is that crazy Distinction between Like
I know my experience is very rare across the board, getting shot out more than twice. And then talking to individuals like you've been shot at. I'm like, Oh, a lot like fricking I've been in, uh,
Probably like 40 or 50 gunfights. Dang. Now that I'm like thinking about it, because it was every day. We were just like, oh, we're walking out. Gunfight. I remember laughing at my buddies because they took a sniper round. And I was overhead cover and I couldn't find the sniper. Sillen came and he was like, why don't you shoot back? I was like, I didn't know where the fuck they were. I just watched you guys run like bitches. Because I was like, fuck it.
Yeah. You see fucking first squad. Just like, they just start running down the way. I'm like, where is this guy? That was my favorite story. I think probably, you know, as a watcher of the podcast, it was a habitual. Yeah. He was, he was on, he was talking about like the, the video he showed his mom of like the fucking like way too close fucking airstrike.
And like all the guys just start laughing. Like, well, why, why is that funny? Cause we were okay. You're fine. You're not dead. Yeah. Always. And that's all it is. You're just like, I've told it too. It's like every time they're like, we're dropping a J dam on that bridge to drop it. Everyone's heads down. Yeah.
And then you wait 500 pounds. Okay. Yeah, we're not we're watching this entire explosion go down. Tell me they're dropping a bomb that's worth more than my net salary ever. I gotta watch that book and watch my entire platoons net worth. Yeah, like I've got to see this shit everyone. That's what everyone does just like showing force with like F-16s or whatever the jets are there like hey, do you want us to show force and we're like
Yeah, I don't even know what that means. The thing is neither does the enemy. No. You think they understand the combat capabilities of a fucking F-22 or whatever the fuck like that. And that's all they would do. They would just do a low pass and fly up. And I was like, what's this mean? We were like, oh, it's all of us just have no idea what a fucking show of force with a flyover because we've done show of force with like. Did it ever work? Oh.
Oh yeah. They don't fuck around. Like we've done, we would just engage. It'd be like, Hey, we need to show a force right here. There's bad guys shooting. They're just start dropping our book. Okay. And then you see nothing. We started doing death blossoms. Uh, it is when we get engaged by an ID and like small arms fire. It's like, okay, we're just going to shoot the fuck out of everything in this general vicinity.
And that also stopped people returning fire. Like we stopped getting weird. Yeah. Like ID bless. Everything would just instantly. If I was a terrorist and I was trying to take potshot you guys. And I saw like a jet fly overhead. I've been like, Oh dude, I'm gonna take the day off. I'm going to head home. I'm going to head home for a little bit.
We've been driving night. You know what? I'm going to go home. I'm going to pray about this for a while and see if this was a good call. Yeah, listen, I'm not opposed to dying for a lot. But today doesn't seem like a good day. I'm going to go. I'm going to go. We're going to postpone the 72 Virgin thing. I'll be back. It's going to happen. It's not today. We were driving a night mission. It was just driving home. It was a late night through one of the main MSRs back by Buck.
Bacaba? Bacaba is like the Olive River province. Just cruising. Just cruising and I'm in the front striker on the gunning seat. I'm like, wait, everyone stop. Everyone stop. I'm like, I don't think they know we're here because they're digging a hole in the road. And we're just looking at thermals with the .50 cal. They're like dragging the giant shell over. It's like a high fence hunt. This doesn't seem deserved.
You got it wrong. This is the MGS with the cow. This doesn't seem deserved. It's a video game. This is just like.
Well, the thermals prevent PTSD. Exactly. So all it takes is a red screen and you're like, hey. You see a screen, you see some white heat, and then all of a sudden the spicy memories go away. I just hate it. You could. You're like, can you see it in photo, like a picture? And you're like, I can't.
Thermal. Okay, now I can't. That's a different chance. They literally did a study. You know about that, right? No, I did not. Oh, yeah, no, that legitimately was like a DOD thing. They're like, yeah, let's start integrating a lot of thermals on stuff that maybe doesn't need thermal, but we've seen studies show that that prevents large-scale PTSD.
I mean, it makes a lot of sense because you have that disconnect instantly from all of that. Because you're like, oh, it's a white mist now. I could be misquoting that. I've generally never seen that. No, I 100% because it makes sense for...
Aircraft, drones. Drones. Drones, strikes, and everything like that. Because now you're just looking at little white dots run that turn into white paintballs. Yeah. Jesus Christ. Call to be groomed us to be like sociopaths, dude. I will say there were like some like in the early days, especially of the Ukraine war. Like the fucking, I think it was the Azov battalion, like their BTR crew.
where you saw that one where they were just like lighting up this APC and then they saw the dudes hiding behind it and you see they just started lighting they started skipping rounds off the pavement just the mist behind it it's like damn man I dude I hate the invasion happened like I hate that like the the world has to be in fucking global conflict right now but god damn that video is satisfying great for stock prices yeah be sure to leave cookies and milk out for Raytheon and Lockheed
Live Rocky Martin. Dude, it's crazy because I do war against anyone that has technology. What you guys did with the drones, that's absolutely fucking terrifying to me. I'm like, what do you do against that shit? Near-peer warfare is going to be wild.
old. It's crazy to see how they went back to trenches so quick. Like no one wants to be above ground. It is gnarly. Although that but we're regressing the fact that they went back to trenches is why they're using shit like drones too. So it's kind of it's it's interesting to see new factors that it's like
We haven't really figured out effective ways to counter this that will be obvious in 30 years. Right. We haven't found the thing. Because we did the warlock system overseas, which is just those things on the back of a strikers or vehicles which block out radio frequencies. So that way they can't detonate. So then they're just wire control detonation of IDs. And they'd run props to them because they would run that fucking wire.
really far down a house just in line of sight, like a few blocks away, clack it off that way. Once they seen the warlock system, it's like, Oh, they have to be smart. Oh yeah. All the dumb ones were probably dead by then. And I will, I always give it props. It's the, the arguments like, what are you going to do against the U S military? It's like, trust me, I've experienced what they can do against the U S military with an a case and fertilizer and
and some explosives. What mixture of fertilizer, Eli? I don't know. How much? Would you like to say that on the internet? Oh, and so we just start training. Kenny K's like, dude, I went to federal prison for this. Oh, God, I haven't told this story. Actually, I haven't told this story ever.
I got blocked by FPS Russia back in the day. And like Kyle now, I've been on his podcast, you know, PKA a couple times. Love Kyle. Love all those guys. I got blocked by him when I was really young because I was one of those anarchist cookbook kids. Imagine that. You don't say, Congressman. I was building bombs in my backyard at 16. I used to do a lot of fucking wild shit. You're like peroxide? And that don't mix together. The cat died. Okay, next. What?
I was building some serious shit and blowing up freezers when I was like 16, 17. But I remember seeing a post where he did like, well, this is a really proprietary mixture, blah, blah. I said, I'm like Tanner, right? Like binary explosives or whatever. I'm like in there in the comments. I'm like, it's really not that hard. All you have to do is mix blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And I just like went.
You know, powder, blah, blah, blah, blah, like in the different mixtures. Like, why am I blocked from commenting on FPS Rush's Facebook? I've never told Kyle that story, but I probably will. Like, hey, bro, why'd you block me? I was so young at the time. It's like I was old enough to know how to make an IED, but young enough to not understand why that was a problem. You don't need to talk about that. Keep that to yourself. My brother in Christ, you're scaring the host.
We are 45 minutes into this podcast. The hoes are gone, my friend. They don't live here, dude. Women don't exist on the internet. Everybody knows that. So, Mr. Admin, what's your next big... What are you trying to get into next? You got your mask unveiling. Your content's already crushing. I always love your cinematography. What are your next big steps that you want to take? I would like to get into some short films.
My brother in Christ. Oh, shit. That's what I'd like to get into. I don't want to say too much just because, like, the zeitgeist, like, when you start putting stuff out there. Let's talk after this. Right, we'll talk after. That was some Eli ASMR. Yeah, that was. I don't want to put too much out there, but that's the goal. I kind of want to say that, you know, that there is, like, the plan of short films because so much of what I love is movies and how can I create my own movies, right?
So that's like the goal. I think that'll be good for you. Like I really do. Cause like, like as long as I've known you, you've always been like a big movie guy. Like you're always quoting movies. You're always trying to like figure out how to like,
From day one, even before most people even get into cinematography and stuff like that, you were always trying to plan your content around shots. Well, right. I mean, to me, movies speak to me on such a deep, visceral level. And then I think there's a thing where Hollywood fails guys like us. They really drop the ball on a lot of stuff. I mean, eventually stuff... Especially the last 20 years. Pretty much, yeah. Stuff does shine through that's really good, and you're like, that's awesome. But for the most part, it's never like...
fully there or they miss a few things like details or the met there's like hidden messaging to make try and make it woke and you're like this is it like it's not there yet you know so they're kind of doing a disservice to us because they want like black rock investors so
If you if I can go outside of that and make stuff that there's no message, it's just pure awesomeness is the goal. And then it's for guys like us, essentially, especially with like modern Hollywood all has to go before a board before they release it. And that's where real creativity gets killed. Essentially. Yeah. Yeah. If only we other we knew other companies that had issues with a board killing good content.
One, we don't know any. Don't know a single one. I'm going to go Swiss on this one. No, it's crazy. Some company made out of good people trying to do good content, getting kneecapped by a board. That's crazy, right? Crazy. I was crazy once.

What the- Do you realize that's like all I-
I will out-tism him on cameras any goddamn day of the week. Oh, yeah. I know this. It's like movies and that, like directing, Brandon. Like, we have our new project that we're working on that's still... Which, have we filled him in at all? I've showed him some of the stuff. Okay. Yeah, he's... Well, yeah, he's never met Director Eli. Oh! Because Director Eli's a different person. Like, for those who don't know, as soon as Eli gets that little director cap on, and he does insist on wearing a different cap...
It's a different human being. That's what show. And I forgot. No one sees that side of me. So show is just like, what the fuck is this version of you? It's like, that's my bread and butter. That's my tis a morgue. I need this. Hey, stop talking. I need this. Hey, shut the fuck up. Hey, you cocksucker. Move over there.
You're fired. Get off my set. Why the fuck are you here? Eli, you invited me. Oh, yeah. Fuck you. Where's my soy half-caffea? It's the stuff I love. Tarantino, the individuals that are successful on their own, they thankfully don't have to answer to
They build such a gravitas. They can kind of do their own thing. Yeah. And it's fucking amazing. They are the board. Exactly. And that's as it should be with film, especially getting into any space. It's like you let creatives do the thing they're good at and then good shit happens. Yeah. Hate that idea. Let us rewrite it to make everyone else happy. It will crush after the fucking time. A board full of people that have no successes to their name. Oh no, they know better than we do. You're saying I got to answer the money man? I don't know about that. Well,
Okay, so what kind of movies would you make? If you're going into shorts and movies, what style? It would definitely be stuff that would speak to our crowd, so military law enforcement guys. So getting it right for those guys for it to be accurate to where you watch it and they go, yeah, that's real.
you know, stuff like that. And then even other just human stories that are a little bit more interesting, but, or comedies too. So that, and that's just the goal. And that's something that I want to start getting into. So it's, we'll see, dude, we'll see if I can pull it off. You should talk to Cody about some of his stuff. We, we need to talk after this. Like it's going to be a good fucking teasers, teasers, boys, boys, other project with which we'll fund.
Yeah, we're in a mountain of things. Dude, some people have no idea like shit's gonna get fucking real in the next six months. People don't know like what's been going on behind the scenes. We don't just sit and drink all day. We do, well, we do that, but we do other stuff. It's to cope with the stress. Yeah, exactly. Of the massive talent. Crazy. I was crazy once. They put me in a room, a rubber room, a rubber room with rats and rats make me crazy. Crazy. I was crazy once. They put me in a room, a rubber room, a rubber room with rats.
What are your top five movies? I want to know this now. I'm like, I'm like, I'm going to answer. I'm going to ask you too. I've got a moment. I'm on the cinema. I'm on the cinema train. I'm like, yes, let's go. Master and Commander, Gladiator, Rogue One, Saving Private Ryan.
Rogue One. Rogue One's awesome. I love Rogue One. That's fucking crazy. It's so it's such a good Star Wars movie. It doesn't feel like Star Wars. Star Wars is the director of that one, right? I think I think did he just do the creator?
Yeah, he just did that too. Because the creator has a similar vibe and feel to what he did. So a creator just came out that was shot on that Sony FX30. They actually, little known fact, if you look in the background on a lot of those, they saved so much budget on that movie because they just filmed it on location. So it was an $80 million budget, which sounds like a lot, but for Hollywood, that's nothing. That's nothing. Especially for how many episodes? Because that was multiple series. For the creator, it was just one movie.
Okay, it was a movie. So 80 million, the VFX on that. But did you notice in the background a lot of those beach scenes? There's literally just parties going on in the background because they did not rent out locations. They filmed on set. Did they steal shots? Yep. That's sick, man. They would film. There would be parties going on at Tiki bars and they'd be like, fuck it, we don't care. Film it. You can't tell what's going on. And then they'd work around it. So gangster. That is sick. Is it just like a depth of focus cheat or? Yeah. Yeah.
Because they're like, eh. Especially outside. Okay, outside, if you're filming on anamorphics, the rule is 5.2. And then if you're interior, it's 2.8. I love when we activate Tizami. He's just like, well, so. I know. I'm like, you guys have a Sony FX30. You better be shooting on S-Log2. Or are you shooting on S-Log3? Okay, that's fine, too. Okay. Hey, we're going to switch to S-Log2. Okay.
It's because of the dynamic range. You have one more stop. That's the reason you do that. But if you don't want to, you don't have to because color correction and post, it adds more time on it. So if you can get a lot, like I use the Panasonic S5 II X,
And the reason I use that is because you can build burn in the LUT. So in post, it saves you a lot of time because then you just add a 10% saturation or sorry, 10 on saturation and then five on contrast and you have it dialed all the way the fuck in without using LUTs. I understood all of that. We're going to go back and clip that. Yeah, we're going to get that. Yeah, we're going to get that. Are you using DaVinci Resolve? No, I'm on Premiere. You, oh my God. Just, do you want him? Yeah. Why? He's...
Done. Sorry. The elitism was like full of it because of that shit. We just spared you about five minutes. You have no idea. It's good. It's good. It's good. I had a fifth movie. I couldn't think of anything. It's tough. That's a tough draw. My movies fluctuate around, man. But those are the first four that came to mind. There's probably a fifth in there somewhere. Edge of Tomorrow? Edge of Tomorrow is really good. It's probably one of the best movies of the modern era, I would say.
Yeah. It's one of my favorite movies. It's great sci-fi. There's no woke isn't to it. It's just a great story. It takes a lot of, it's combined saving private Ryan with groundhog day. It looks awesome. Yeah.
It's got good comedic beats too. On top of having a solid story and it doesn't sacrifice the story for the comedy. No. When he's starting to wake up and it's like wake up soldier. Wake up soldier and you just have it over and over. He's like no no no. It's fine. It's fine. I'll be okay. I just need a moment. Just give me okay. Do it. It's like gone. Such a good movie. Top five.
So I'm a big Scorsese nerd. I like Wolf of Wall Street. No particular order. Wolf of Wall Street, The Aviator. One of my favorite fucking movies.
It's still one of yours, Saving Private Ryan. Yeah. Fucking masterpiece. Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt. No, go for it. I was going to say the sound design in Saving Private Ryan alone is phenomenal. When you really look and break down a lot of content. We know the guy. It was one of the first. Well, we do know the guy. It was one of the first movies that fucking cared. Yeah. You'll love this. Do you know who the guy was? Kevin Bredingham.
He helped with the sound design on that. No kidding. That is crazy. They drew a bunch of shit out of his collection. That is awesome. Oh, yeah. We discussed it when he was on the podcast. We had no idea. We were all shitting words. We were like, what, Kevin? Well, we all got blackout drunk with him. That is crazy, man. Dude, he did Black Hawk Down. Saving Private Ryan. He had a, like...
He rattled off a couple big ones. Yeah. And then he passed out. He was asleep on the bar. I have a hundred millionaire passed out in the back of my Raptor. It's the weight of massive talent, my man. I like the way he lives. He's just a talented and genuinely fun individual. He's one of the best humans. Those are like solid.
movies. Those are like sci-fi. You have your different like war. So you guys are more into action war movies. I would say so. Yeah, the tap and like not just action for the sake of action, but it's happened to the human element too because it's like
I mean, the reality of conflict of any sort of fighting is that you're just a human. Right. But when guys can do feats that are above and beyond, that's always interesting. But then there's always just the grind that is. And it's not like you're not going to you're not the main character. You're going to get evaporated, you know. So I also like rise and fall stuff. Yeah. The other movie I was going to because I was like the fourth one I think I was going to name was Ford vs. Ferrari.
And I actually watched that at your house like fucking three, four years ago. One of the best. Dude, such a good movie. I've probably watched it three times since then. Great fucking movie. I was going to say, you would love this. The movie that lives rent-free a lot of times is Hostiles.
I've never seen that. With Christian Bale, where he is towards the later half of the Indian Wars, and he's a captain in the U.S. Army. He has to escort an old Cheyenne chief. To it, and then it is where he has the problems of who's the bad guy, who's the good guy. Yeah. Very good fucking movie. Look at you with your movie. Fifth movie, The Outlaw Josie Wells with Clint Eastwood. I have not watched that. What? That is one of the best films ever made.
I'm going to text that to me. He's a former Confederate that like his whole unit goes to turn themselves in.
Uh, the union basically ambushes them and just like tries to gun them down. Cause they have like a notorious like guerrilla group and he has to basically go on the run. And it's his whole drive West as like a disgraced former Confederate. And it Clint Eastwood just, that is one of his best roles. Dude. I love like Clint Eastwood. Clint Eastwood, how he directs is one of the greatest thing ever. Cause have you ever read how he directs? I heard it was like the one take.
Yeah. And he has some of the best lines that you have. I love hearing actors and how they interact with the director. Matt Damon, Matt Damon with South African movie. No, Matt Damon with Saving Private Ryan. Oh, Spielberg. Spielberg. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Spielberg is the one when Matt Damon's like, I think I'll nail this take. Just, hey, let's do it one more time. Spielberg looks at him. He's like.
Or I can go get an actual actor who can get a good take and then we can do this one any other time. And that's Matt Davis. Like that's when I was humbled of my time. I need to just shut the fuck up and listen to the director and actually know my part that time. Whereas Clint Eastwood is very big on one takes. And he's like, and.
And he just listens and just lets the actors play it out as they see fit. And you're like, okay, this is completely. And then you have Tarantino who you have to do exactly his script. There's no modifying his script. You read the line verbatim. You're just off the fucking. Yeah. And that's how it goes. And you're like, oh man, this is a weird. We talked about this one with the bear Jew, who the bear Jew was actually supposed to be. Adam Sandler.
You know that? I did not know that. That's why they do the big reveal, the long reveal. And it's, he walks out of the shadows, you know, Adam Sandler. It was supposed to be Adam Sandler as the bear Jew. I was like, fuck. And it was so fucking good on that. Was it a thing where Adam couldn't land the lines? No, he couldn't. He, he was filming something. Oh, who the fuck would turn down a Tarantino movie? Yeah. For like, dude, I would cancel the fucking birth of my child over there. Like,
Maybe we're getting a bar shit. No, sweetheart, just squeeze it in. Just hold it. Keep it in. I need 24 hours. I'll be around for the next round. Put tape up. Baby ain't coming out right now. I'll be around for the next kid. Come on. I got to do a Tarantino.
Just kegel that shit for 24 hours, honey. I believe in you. I'll be back, sweetheart. Those are like, do you watch any Westerns? It seems you're getting into Westerns. Yeah, I mean, Westerns are such a good classical story, right? So, I mean, I love 310 to Yuma. Hostiles was one that I got on. That was a good one. Some other ones. Like Westworld, kind of. That's a good sci-fi show for the cowboy stuff, but...
And you have the olders with any of the claims with good, bad, ugly. Yeah. What blows my mind is you've not seen the outlaw Josie Wells. You've seen it. I hate it. Is that the one where he has the poncho? Or is that a different one? The good, bad, and ugly. The good, bad, and ugly. I'm shocked neither of you have seen that. Now I have to watch it. I'm like, oh, I love Cowboys. You're going to pull those pistols or whistle Dixie.
Oh, wait. Oh, that's a... I haven't seen it, though. I know what that line's from. It's a good fucking movie. It's one of those movies that's got, like, 12 great bits in it. Like, the whole movie together, like, the pacing's a little slow. It's a 70s movie. I love movies, but I don't catch them all sometimes. Stuff slips through the cracks, man. Yeah. Recently... We'll fix that. Recently, you have... I mean, most recent movies, I'm like, eh, I guess a good few war movies in there, but for the most part... Did you see The Covenant?
Does it sound familiar? It's the new fucking Guy Ritchie movie. That's the war movie. Oh, my God. I did watch that. I've heard a lot of interviews. Everybody loves it except prior military guys. They're like, this is the worst war film I've ever fucking seen. Which is weird. I love Guy Ritchie. Yeah, I love Guy Ritchie, too. He's very stylistic. When I heard he was doing that movie, I was like, that doesn't fit his style to me. Because he did Aladdin, which doesn't fit his style to me. And then he did this. He did Aladdin? Yeah. You're fucking kidding me.
Oh no, honey, what is you doing? Yeah. Yeah. It doesn't, it doesn't fit. Like to me, it doesn't feel like a guy. Cause I loved King Arthur and King Arthur didn't do well, but I thought it was an awesome movie. Like with his style, uh,
It was sick. But, again, when I heard, like, Aladdin or The Covenant, I was like, this doesn't feel like a Guy Ritchie genre. I think he could. You're right. Even with how his shooting style is, it doesn't match a war movie because you had to have those punchy transition shots or, like, hey, we're in this problem. Then it's that quick, like, reload. The shaky cam follow action shit, like,
You could do that in Guy Ritchie style, but like just what makes a good action sequence. I think it doesn't fit the war movie style of like war movies are supposed to be like epic and kind of heavy. Like a Guy Ritchie is supposed to be a little more like Black Hawk down. Epic and heavy. Saving Private Ryan. There is, it lets it breathe where Guy Ritchie doesn't let movies breathe. Like he's like, hey, I'll breathe right here, but I need punch, punch, punch, punch. Same for the director for... Oh, God dang it.
John of the dead or, Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Fuck. I know exactly who you're talking about. Uh, yeah. God damn it. What is his name? Edgar Wright. Edgar Wright. Yeah. He's a very good physical comedy beat director. Yeah. But couldn't do a war movie. I'm sorry if this is boring as shit to those of you who don't give a fuck about film. I love this. No, this is, this is all of artism. I think combining fucking,
It took us an hour, but we found out where to hone in. Where to converge in. Longbows, too far. Longbows, and I was like, the step people, I love the step people. Do you know Genghis Khan history? I heard Genghis Khan once or twice. We had a couple little divots into racism, left and right, but other than that, you know, we had many such cases, my friend.
We made it on brand. So what is your first short film? What's it going to be about? We can talk. I can't talk about it on camera yet. Can't talk. Really? Yeah. I'll tell you guys off camera, but for now, I want to keep it close to the chest. Ooh.
Oh, really? God dang it. Son of a biscuit. Okay, what are some new... Can you talk about YouTube content that's upcoming? Sure, absolutely. Yeah. Well, we did the one today. Yeah, we did the... Talk about that one. We did two videos. We did two videos. So we did the top five today with Brandon. Don't do a tinkle. That's okay. We got you. One of my things to do on the channel, I did the top five where I'll go to my buddies that have cool gun collections, and Brandon has probably one of the best
best gun collections of all my gun tube friends. It is a really good collection. I've seen guys that have a lot of guns. I've seen guys that have very niche interests. Like Scott is obsessed with power and large projectiles. Which if you've met Scott, you completely understand. Yeah, you go to the other end of the spectrum, you have Ian of Forgotten Weapons. I've seen his collection. It's like on, he had a, like in his compound on one side of his gun collection was all, he called it the French Corridor.
All French niche weapons. He's like, I have. Yeah. Is his lineage like French? I think so. Because I've never understood his. Well, I mean, his last name is McCollum. So he has like a little bit of Scotch Irish there. Yeah. Yeah. So he has that. And then on the other side is like a little bit more genre weapons. You have a lot of really cool weapons that are very unique and you build some very unique weapons. So it's cool to crack open that collection. Like I think of Mike who has a bunch of tactical oriented guns.
And it is cool. We did that and then we shot an M60, a Vietnam themed M60. I have a cowboy themed episode coming out. Sorry, let me rephrase. I'm stuttering. I had a cowboy themed 1860 coming out from Henry Arms. Going to do that. 1860. A lever gun. 1860? Not an actual 1860. Yeah.
But it's the lever gun. It's based off of the repeater. The Lancaster repeater. It's all limited use during the Civil War. Very limited use. I was going to say, during the Civil War, I remember I'm a big fucking nerd when it comes to weapon development and whatnot. I don't know of a single widely produced lever gun that ever saw action. If I remember correct. 1860 was even before the Civil War. It was right before, and I think it started production in 1862. Okay.
Okay, because I'm thinking 1862 was like Burnside carbine. We did not go to self-contained cartridges yet. I think they had the self-contained cartridge. I think it was an issue of logistics. So soldiers would spend their own money to acquire the 1860. Right, right. I think it was that one Confederate general that was like, they can load on Sunday and shoot all week. God, who would that have been? Asterix didn't, editor. Fuck me, I don't... Damn it, yeah.
1873 was the revolvers because that's the cattlemen and everything. Believe it or not. All right, I'll go deep tism on this one. I love it. The Colt. I want to add on to this, so keep going. The Colt. I think it's the 1837 Colt Patterson was the first six-shot revolver. Holy shit. Is it a five-shot or six-shot? Was it a cap or a bullet? It's cap and ball. So first cartridge-based was 1873.
1873 or 1876 was the Cattlemen? The Peacemaker or the Cattlemen? Cattlemen was the first and the Peacemaker. Well, they already had the self-contained cartridge, I thought. Technically, they had the self-contained cartridge in like the early 1800s with like the pinfire stuff and a lot of French like prototype weapons. But like not how we know it today. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I'm going to have to look into the history. I could have swore that first revolver was a five-shot.
It could be. I own one. I don't remember if it's five or six. I think the big deal is that it helped the settlers pacify the West because of all the Comanche horse archers. Yeah. Going back to horse archers who controlled a lot of them. There's a book on this. I think it's Tears of the Summer Moon where essentially you have these Comanche horse archers that could just tear up these settlers coming across the plains going to the American steppe because these guys only have a flintlock rifle and then a flintlock pistol. So they fired those first two rounds. Not to be confused with Killers of the Flower Moon.
Is that something else? The new movie coming out. The new movie coming out. The new Scorsese movie. Oh, with Leo? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry, not to derail. No, you're good, you're good. I see what you did there. No, that's crazy how that technology was like Flint and Flint. It's like, yeah, Bose are still going to win. It's no different than, we've talked about it before, the step people or Genghis Khan when they rode into Russia, it just fucking annihilated them.
Genghis Khan was like, yo, yeah, just keep pushing. I don't give a fuck. Just literally push as far as we can. We're conquering this goddamn world. So when he hit Russia, they sent all their people out and Genghis Khan did his style, which sent people to come in, pull back, draw them on in, and then roll down the rivers and just their heavy bows were heavy bows. And they were talented compared to everyone else because they fought all the time. They killed the entire Russian military. Do you know this?
Go on. They killed like the entire Russian military. Like the entire military was gone. What year about was this? This was during the Genghis Khan era of 600? No, I think late 1100s to early 1200s is my guess. Was it Genghis Khan's?
12, 13 is my guess. Oh, yeah, probably because that's what I was thinking. Because it was like... It's almost like we all have a nightmare brick in front of us that can answer this question. Because they were the first ones to incorporate, like, dynamite explosives and everything like that. So when they pulled out... All of them came up. They wiped them all out. Yeah, he died in 1227. So, yeah. 1227. So around that time, when he wiped out the Russian military, Russia was like...
We are fucked. These guys pulled everyone out, wiped them all out, no questions asked. And then they just waited like, well, we're going to die. Genghis Khan's like, hey, you guys are too far. Come back. So they just waited. The Russian, like all of Russia was just like, oh, they're just going to come in and kill us. And then they watched these people just disappear. And they're like,
They kill our military and they didn't even raid us? What the fuck are these people? They thought they were crazy people because, again, a military destroys your army and just leaves. Yeah, it's not the SOP for history. No, and then you're just like...
At that time you don't have the age of information to know. You're just worried. Who are those people? Yeah, exactly. You just literally... What the fuck just happened? Just imagine that you have no fucking idea what just destroyed your military. They didn't even want our lithium? Exactly. And you're like...
Dude, the horse archers of the steppe have been a problem for millennia. You go into the steppe without horse archers. I played the Total War game once or twice. You go in there. I think of Crassus, who was trying to push towards the steppe, and he got betrayed by some scouts. Classic Roman tale. These horse archers, steppe horse archers, were pinning the shields of the Romans with their bows. So they were shooting these arrows or pinning the shields to their arms or pinning the guys to their like to the ground with their bows.
If they got hit in the foot, these guys are nuts, dude. Dude, that's why they controlled literally the entire Asian continent. The horse archer is the peak of military tech until the gun comes around. Yeah, that man spread his seed more than Monsanto. Yeah, he was eco-friendly. He reduced the carbon footprint. By a, I forget how many people. In a way. No, he did. He killed so many, they killed so many people. It reduced the carbon footprint in all...
He helped the environment because you kill so many people. You're like, God damn. Okay, bro. This is sounding a little Thanos-esque here with your reasoning. He was an environmental hero. Imagine the two billion people that aren't here. Honestly, Genghis Khan, it's going to wrap it around. Genghis Khan is going to be the reason why we win the war with China. Thank God they're not at three and a half billion people.
I just like his grave when they buried him. It was already set in stone. It's like, hey, when I get buried, make sure you kill everyone at that funeral. And then all those people that kill all those people, they also get killed when they're returning back. Did you not know this? No. That's why Genghis Khan's gravesite is not known. So everyone that attended his funeral...
They were told that military was told, okay, wipe all of them out. So the military killed all of them, trampled the ground so no one could tell. Then on their return home, like 200 miles in, then those people were murdered. Another set of military set in place. So no one knew where he was buried at. Which is why nobody knows where Hitler's buried in Argentina. So Eli, what's your next project?
My next project is we kind of filmed something. Oh, yeah. I forgot we can't really talk about that. Anime and video games. Dude, the audience is like, you guys can't talk about nothing, dude. Anime and video game weapons done in real life, and we'll just leave it at that? Which I'm so... You guys being there, and then, man, that was like my tism where I was like, yes, it's everything I've ever wanted. Slow-mo camera. Dude.
Dude, I was in heaven watching that stuff. I was like, and now in post, it looks so good. You guys have such good, like one liners and entries into post. I'm like, okay, so we'll do 10 minutes or we'll do six minutes from act three. We're going to do, uh,
five minutes from act two and then a couple of minutes from act one and then put it all together in this nice package. And then I'm excited to see your demo cut of it. It do like later on while you're, while you're fucking around with it. Just send me a rough. I'm really curious. I want to see this shit. I'm building out like mine is without the sound design and all that. I, yeah, I know not much, you know,
The sound design will be last because I'm already inserting my motion graphics and how I want everything to go and like highlighting how the machine works and all the voiceovers. And I'm just like going through my autistic notebook, giving notes during the edit. It's going to be some good content. You guys are going to want to see it. I know I literally like aside from obviously wanting to be involved in the project, I wanted to fucking be there to see it because it was cool as shit. Dude, it's just crazy. We'll just cut that G-Man. Yeah.
Spoilers. Stop. Spoilers, darling. It's visceral. That is the one thing you can fucking say without a doubt is how visceral some of you seen one. I saw one. Yeah. No matter what happens that we're going to maybe tease every time we saw this slow-mo like recap, everybody was like, Oh, fuck.
it was dude shit gnarly just dude guys would have seen that thing hell yeah bros being dudes what's your next uh what are your actually you you brought out your five favorite guns from brandon's what are your favorite five favorite guns like what are you all time yeah dog uh mp7 mp42 uh those are the top two i can think of just easily the am180 suppressed is a vibe but
I think it's definitely up there. You should have brought it. AM-180? I mean, we already did one. What the fuck is... The .22 machine gun. Have you seen mine? Yeah. Oh, okay. The one with like the 360 round drum on top. Or .270. Blood Diamond Car 15 for sure. And then...
Oh, geez. Probably an H car. I love the H car. Yeah. Weird. It's not, it's a very boutique gun. It's not the most user friendly for like taking apart and maintaining it, but it's pretty sick. It would never make my top five, but it would probably make my top 20. It's a, it's a very, it's a vibe. This is off the top of the head. If I had a really thing like, all right, all right, dude, this is my bar. Yeah. I want to do one on the PPK and call it the gun that killed Hitler. Yeah.
I'll do it myself. I want to do a bunch of jokes in there. Like, you know who I look up to? I look up to the man who killed him. Just see the amount of fucking people who don't know their history. Just go like, that's a patriot right there. Canadian Parliament told a standing ovation for an SS soldier, dude. They totally did. Jesus Christ. 14th Panzer Grenadier Division of the SS. They're all like, yeah, he's so brave.
And that was a volunteer unit. Yeah. I mean, to be fair, like it's he was in Ukraine when the Russians were messing up everybody. So it was a little worse for them. Crazy. Brand new top five. Oh, top five guns. Oh, dude, I don't know. A.K. A.K. A.K. I like the A.K. Dude, that's that's a wild one. I don't know.
Out of my collection or just... No, in general, bro. You have to have your top five where you're like, this is what I would give everything for. M2 Browning. Solid. Got one of those. Minigun. Fuck.
I'm surprised you don't have one of those yet. I've been in talks. I'm trying. I'm guessing we're talking to our friend. A couple different ones, actually. They're just kind of figuring out, like, all right, what do I really, it's about, like, what do I want? What do I want to spend? Because, like, most people think, like, oh, I don't know, 50 grand. Like, how much does your house cost? Also, 5.56 versus 7.62. The 7.62, not manageable by a human. No. We learned that.
The blank's very manageable. Yeah. With live rounds, not so much. Because that was my idea, if you remember, like doing the, like trying to like...
like, okay, can you do one in five live rounds? I know. Can you do one in four or one in three? Like that seemed like a really good incremental YouTube video. Yeah. That walk though, that, that first burst, we were like, okay, let's go. And then we were all standing on the wrong. So it was like, hold on. We all shifted. Everyone's like, wait, cause it rotates. It'll spin low and right. Yeah. So we were like, Oh, it's the centripetal force, I guess. I don't know. So we all rotated to the other side and then it was that quick burst of
was absolutely terrifying on what a weapon system can do. Cause it was like, what? Nope. No, we're not doing this anymore. This is hands down. Not okay. Matt is not a small man. No. And that was just, just ripped him immediately. I think that was one, one every two. Yeah. And that was, or like one to one rather. Yeah. And the blanks. Cause the blanks don't move anyone. Oh, you fired him in again, right? Yes. Yeah. There's just a bird.
Have you done handheld? No, I remember there was a video of Gronkowski. He did the handheld minigun, but I think those were all blanks because there's no way. I remember shooting that minigun at the Dillon Arrow range, and it moves the entire suspension of a truck like it's funny, dude. There's no holding back. Because imagine like a G3, like boom, that recoil. Now imagine one of those.
But like 4,000 rounds a minute? Yeah. You can't do that, dude. This isn't Predator. You can't do that. Like 50 a second, right? I did have an idea that I'll share here. I'll do this one day. I wanted to do a minigun rocket jump. I wanted to figure out how to... I already had a design for a suspension to just put it in the air and just figure out the weight of the person that you could carry and shoot a minigun down to the ground and have the...
reciprocating force of the 308 at 4,000 rounds a minute lift a person in the air.
I'd be pretty fucking gangster. I'm going to do this at some point. I want to see it. Those are the things I might go with. Because you can figure it out with math, but that's not fun. No, it's not fun. I want to see it IRL. I want to shoot a motherfucker in the air with a minigun. We're going to do it with a dummy, obviously, and do a remote fire and all that shit. It's like one of those jet suits. It's going to be like the fucking Hacksmith, but instead of jets, it's fucking miniguns.
Man, this is really expensive. But he's fine. Meanwhile, some motherfucker at Raytheon's like, write this down, write this down.
We gotta go. The Village Destroyer 9000. You could steer with what direction you're shooting fucking 4,000 rounds of hatred a minute. Yeah. Holy shit. No, if I was going for guns, like I already have Mark 23. That was like a checklist. Yeah. PSG one, never going to own one. What? Maybe. I don't know. They're not as expensive as you think. Well, the last one sold for 60 grand. Really? Yeah.
But it was boxed and everything. Yeah, I want to say I've seen them for cheaper than that. Like, if you're willing to pay what you paid for that Mark 23. Dude, the lamb just sold for $8,200. Not mine. A lamb just sold for $8,200.
I'm going to start looking. Yeah. I'll see if I can find you one. Okay. Cause I've done this a time or 12. I believe you guys. Cause I'm like, okay, I got my mark 23 with everything. I was like, there's my, it's all I wanted. I got the lamb. I got the matching suppressor with, do you know what he's talking about? The lamb?
Mark 23? HK Mark 23? Yeah, it's like the big old USP. Yeah, and then it came, so I have an unfired one from original with matching serial numbers with the suppressor. Also not unfired. This is 1996 with the maritime finish. And then I have the LAM device with receipts. Also never been used. LAM to laser, right?
Laser. Yes. Laser and condescent light. So the last one just sold two weeks ago for $8,200. This was $125 when it came out. Yeah. What? Clone. Not original, but clone. I thought it was a real. I was like, this is the real, real dude. A clone. I would do for that price. That's fine. Right, dude. Look at it, bro. It's a sexy guy. Oh,
What else do you need? What game was that in? Was that in Call of Duty Black Ops, like the OG? Yeah. Metal Gear Solid 2. Also, yeah. Metal Gear Solid, unfortunately, it was like, hey, let's do the Mark 23 with the lamb. Let's do the PSG one, and then let's do a FAMAS. Let's just kick those. Eli, can you afford any of those now? No, I can't. Because one's fucking $100,000. One is 60 grand, unless you do a clone. The FAMAS is on Obtanium. Yeah. One just sold last month.
$110,000. Hi, everybody. I'm Ian McCollum. Today we're going over the French from us. My joke about Ian McCollum, like, hi, hi, everyone. Ian McCollum from Forgotten Webster. Today we're going over a gun that is so rare that it was actually never manufactured. It does not exist. It is in the ether.
He gets some weird shit on there sometimes. That's impressive. How the fuck did... Who owns that? How'd you get that? Get your hands on that. Get your mittens on that, Ian. Those are the things I'm like, oh my god. Because he has the G11. That's the...
It looks like a Timex watch when you open it up and you're like, I love the magic. Dude, I just love they gave that to infantry. Like, they're like, yeah, just don't open it. You for sure could handle this? Yeah. Because that was part of the American. Big's heart. I opened it on X. I don't know where the clock pin went. I used to thought my whole leg was stopped working. Your boss gets paid 40 grand a year, dude. You're not figuring that shit out. I was so pissed overseas. I'm like, bro, what the fuck?
Shit. Where'd your... You know what doesn't exist in Germany? Dust. And they're like, nah, we don't care. It'll be fine. It'll be fine. It's fine. It's good. Overseas, all you do is just moon dust, so you have to clean your AR. Every fucking narrator. It was not, in fact, fine. It was not good. I just fucking hate it so goddamn much. Did the lube that you guys use attract more dust?
Oh, I fucking God, I hate remembering. Yeah, tap into something there. Yeah, it's a fucking deep. So the Middle East, it's kind of sandy at times. You ever heard of moon dust? Yeah. So moon dust is, I don't know, it's like the lightest sand ever. So when you drive, you will clean your weapon, you will take a shower, you'll do everything when you get back. If you have running water, come back. The second you drive home,
off of base this is less than a mile you are then it is like somebody who's just like you good okay i'm gonna dump sand on you but the lightest particle dirt so it just sticks everywhere everywhere after you're clean does not matter so it doesn't matter how like you run your weapons dry a lot of times unless you're in like you're like are we about to get shot at summer yeah
one drop it shouldn't stick because i'm like in comment like on like a macro level this is just like coating your shit in peanut butter and then dipping it into like you know like rocks or whatever you're just like oh yeah no like if you run fucking lube on a gun it's going to attract dirt like there will be a surface level of sand or dust or whatever on top i always say like my biggest firefight by the time i went through um almost all seven mags my weapon was jamming on
mag 7 it was like a failure every three rounds because i was like behind my little rock engaging i was like what were you using like m4a1 uh that was m4 um we had the a4 so we had the little the 16 inches but they were the a4 okay yeah because i ran the acog and then i had a m14 and it was at that time though it was like i was like click pop pop pop click okay now i gotta now i gotta ask what do you think of the m14
Over there, it was way more dope because it would drop people instead of like people running away. Yeah. Because that was why when we transitioned, like two rounds, they'd run like two blocks and you'd be like, oh, I missed. Huh. And they'd be like,
Versus the M14 7.62 is actually doing its job and stopping the target. You're like, okay, this is cool. It's no different than the 249 versus the 240. A big difference. Did you delete that? No, you're good. I can tease this. I just got a 240 kit. We're rebuilding right now. It's not a 240 technically. It's the FN name of it. It's the MAG-58.
But this one was ultra based and saw service in Rhodesia. We see Zimbabwe now, don't we? Do we? I can resist. It's got the Rhodesian baby shit camo on it and everything. Oh, yeah, dude. I cannot wait to get this rebuilt. It's going to be a vibe. Reddit's going to love that one. Well, this is... Yeah, Reddit's going to... Well, you know, the places you're popular on Reddit are going to love that one.
Well, I love that. Like your videos are based off of like Brandon. Thank you. They're just based. Well, you do your, uh, your videos. You're like, Hey, you're starting to branch into, um, you do like the Kennedy assassination, Lincoln assassination. And then you do some MLK is coming this week. If you want MLK. Hmm.
I think we're going to film. What's that mean, if I want? If you want to be the MLK. Okay. Eli, why are you blackface? I don't know. Brandon asked me to. I said no. No, no, no, no. No, no, no, no.
Republican Congress, congressional candidate, hero, shoots man in blackface. Everyone's getting war paints, the tribal, tribal. And it's just, I'm like, what's this? I mean, if you want to be there for the shoot. Basically, I'm just going to talk about how this video is probably already going to be out by the time this episode airs. But I'm just going to talk about how the FBI killed him. The FBI absolutely fucking killed him. 100%. Like zero doubt in my mind.
But that's what, like, your style is that, and then you've done a lot of movie or, like, is that how you're basing a lot of your content? It's like, hey, I like movies. Do you base your personality around Rhodesia? Cringe. Cringe. Your way off baseline. Based cringe.
So a lot of it, I'll watch movies or I'll see something from popular culture. I'm like, yeah, I want to replicate that to the best of my ability. So I'll go off a theme. Like if it's rather it's, you know, today we did the M60 and it's like a lot of the theme is animal mother from full metal jacket, you know? So it's like, it's based in that lore. You know what I mean? Based.
Full metal jacket all the way, which I didn't know. So Joker apparently was supposed to die in full metal jacket. Joker, the actor then asked. Spoilers. Sorry.
You haven't seen it in the last 50 years? He talked to Stanley Kubrick, and that's when he was talking to Stanley Kubrick. He was like, hey, instead of having Joker die, what about just making him live? Because the things he's seen during war is worse than death. That's why Stanley Kubrick changed it so he lived at the end of the movie. Was that based on anything originally, or was that just... Was it some book or anything, or was it just totally organic? Stanley Kubrick.
If you've never watched how Stanley Kubrick created all of that fucking movie is really well. Cause I know, I know he's based off books before like the shining and whatnot. Yeah. So, uh, with that, I don't know if it was based off of a book. He went in, he did all the prep work. Uh, they built little barracks. So they built all the little barracks. So he pre a pre-shot everything. Then, uh, he hired an actor to be the drill sergeant. Then, um, the,
Arlie Ermey. Ermey came in and they were like, hey, how does the drill sound? He was trying to teach the actor and they're like, how about you be the actor for it? And then that's how he blew up to his degree. That had to be like the guy who originally played Darth Vader in the suit getting replaced by James Earl Jones. I feel so bad for that. The guy who was originally supposed to, like, I just nailed this role. Have you ever heard of Darth Vader's real voice?
Yeah, I remember seeing the footage of it. It was like, find me the droid. He's a British guy. Find me the princess. I want her alive. That's like, oh, God. And I love they didn't tell him until he showed up watching the screen. With his family. Yes. His mom is there. They never told him his voice was replaced. So he's like, you're going to hear. And then his voice is completely different. This ain't smashing, isn't it?
But so during that, when they film like Ernst,
how they filmed all the scenes that he went such in depth with each individual thing. Stanley Kubrick during the filming of that, like they're like, okay, how do I light this? Okay. We're going to do all organic lighting. We need these barracks specifically for that. Okay. We're filming this here. This is what the troops are going to go through. I want it feeling like this. Stanley Kubrick was like a master at his craft. He's one of my favorite directors on, uh,
The level of autism he went into. Cause that dude, a hundred percent was autistic. I mean, the man made an entire generation afraid of hotels. Yeah. Yeah. His buddy that made, um, uh, what's the submarine, uh, red October. Yeah. Oh, that was so good. Yeah. His buddy made that.
He lit all of that in a single night. His buddy's like, hey, I don't know how to light a submarine. Stanley Cooper was like, I got you. Went there, lit everything with them, not on set. He's like, hey, you're taken care of.
So they showed up. Stanley Kubrick is the Eli of our group. Yeah, okay, sick. Hey, Eli, I don't know how to light this. Oh, dope. I'll be there in 20 minutes. Have you tried using DaVinci Resolve? What the fuck are you talking about? I don't know. Just make it look good. I don't fucking know. So he shows up, fucking lights everything, and then leaves. He's like, hey, you should be fine with all the lights there. And they went in. That's how ragged October, the way it looks, the way it does, is because he went in, pre-lit everything, and just bounced. Yeah.
Damn. Dude, that is a friendship right there where you're like, I got it, dog. I love it. Hey, well, we need some lights right here. Is there anything else I can light for you? No, dude, we're good, man. A friendship otherwise known as an, you know, $100,000 contract for lighting people. Yeah. Yeah, thank you. That was fun, though. Appreciate you. Thank you. Thanks for the pizza. And you're like, God, and it's the same dude that did. Do you know how many takes he used to do? No.
I guess how many takes Stanley Kubrick would do for a single scene? How many? 130. Oh my God. That's with film. This is like a can rolling. Yeah. And he would make the actors act out. This is during the shining with, uh, I'm not going to hurt you. Yeah.
it's gonna beat your fucking head in or whatever the fucking line was on the and he would treat the female like absolute shit he would just fucking berate her just so she was broken and then she found out after that words that's that's how he directed he's like god you fucking suck at this let's just break her so that way in her scene she's crying because he would make her cry on scenes like yeah nailed it that's what i was going for she doesn't know it but i
I'm so happy. Like, man, this is a savage director. Gnarly. Being said, admin, where can we find you, you beautiful son of a bitch? You're going to go to your search bar on YouTube and type in administrative results. What you will see is a YouTube channel. It's mediocre, but you may have a good time if you stick around. That was rehearsed. It wasn't actually. No.
All my good stuff just kicked in now. Sorry, dude. Damn, wish we could do another hour, but we can't. So, you know, hey. Hey, guys, thank you for hanging out. Brandon, where can we find you? Here on the Unsub Podcast. Next time I end up, you know, having nothing to fucking do. What we do at midnight, 1 a.m.
We did this on literally at like 11 at night. You just happen to be in town like fucking filming extra shit. So we're just like, you know what? Sure, we'll do an unsub. I'm a professional. We're going to fucking knock it out. Guys, thank you so much. There's going to be no after show on this one, but there will be just something completely separate. Love you.
