Today's episode is brought to you by Angie. Angie has made it easier than ever to connect with skilled professionals to get all your jobs and projects done well. Let me tell you, there's the version of it where you try to do something at home and then there's a version of it where you have someone help you, you watch them do it the right way and you go, thank God I didn't try to do that myself.

I have fully done things around the home that I think look good and then a bang in the night and I wake up to a shelf collapsing, a painting falling off the wall. Like it, I've seen it all go south. I own a home and I can tell you, I know how much work it can take. Whether it's everyday maintenance and repairs or making dream projects a reality, it can be hard just to know where to start. But now all you need to do is Angie that and find a skilled local pro who will deliver the quality and expertise you need.

Whatever your home project, big or small, indoor or outdoor, you can Angie that and connect with skilled professionals to get the project done well. Right now, one of my wish lists is I want a bike for my condo in Milwaukee and I would love to rig it up on a pulley in the ceiling because I have one of those like lofted ceilings.

but I'm so scared to try that on my own. Angie has 20 years of home experience and they've combined it with new tools to simplify the whole process. Bring them your project online or with the Angie app. Answer a few questions and Angie can handle the rest from start to finish or help you compare quotes from multiple pros and connect instantly, which means you can take care of any home project in just a few taps.

All right, guys. Welcome back to the podcast. We have our good friend Justin sitting in on it. What is this? Your third time? Yeah, this is my third time on, I think. But also, we have a new guest today, too. We obviously have Justin. But also, Chet is back, dude. Oh, yeah. Ben cut his hair back into a mullet. It's like a baby mullet, dude. It is a baby mullet. I hate to address it. It's crazy. It's crazy.

What a mullet will do when your hair isn't that long. It does look good, though. I mean, you just said you're up for a haircut. Are you going to grow out a mullet, or what are you doing, dude? Dude, I think I just look too... Like, I just don't have the front for it, you know? Like, you need to have some frontage. I don't have any real estate up there. That would just be weird. It wouldn't look right. It's worth a shot. Yeah, fuck. The real reason we have you here right now...

is because your house is getting decked out with pineapples. You're going to come home to an absolute mess. We've got a bus out there loading up 50,000 pineapples right now. All the neighbors are going to be over. So confused. Oh my gosh. I don't even like pineapple that much. That's the worst part is I wouldn't even know what to do with any of it. What does it mean? I'm totally unaware and didn't just watch that. Shit, he's on to us.

You don't eat the pineapples, Justin. They're just a sign. It's more of like a freaking, I don't even know what I'd call it,

It's like a flare gun going off. It's like a flare gun going off for the swingers. Oh. It's not fellow, just other swingers. Like to hop back to what you had said in the previous pod, I do feel like there's actually way more people out here that do that than we really realize. Oh, I think there's – I realize it because I can freaking spot them. They're like kind of weird at like public places. Remember back when the very first piece of merch that we made was Swingin'?

And we didn't even think about it. I know. I never thought of that. I didn't know what it meant back then. So we were walking around like swinging. This is something. I feel like this is a good phrase, like big dick swinging. And then Ken knew, but I think someone's parent was like, you know what that actually means, right? And we're just sitting here walking around like swinging.

Well, we were talking about big dick swinging, which was cool. And everyone probably just thought you were a swinger. And then I had baseball friends, and they thought it was cool because it was like swinging. And then golf, people said the same thing. So it's probably random. Yeah, everyone didn't know what it was back then. Yeah, we were just young and innocent. Imagine how easy big dick swinging was to market to the youth. It was great. That's why we left out the big dick part of it. Little dick swinging. Yeah, that was pretty funny, though. I never realized that until right now, that that had a secondary meaning.

I think that's where most of our merch sales were going. Into the swinging community. Like the swinging Facebook pages you have to be invited to is getting passed around in that. All of the merch was just being sold to Holly. I feel like swinging needs to be clarified to all the viewers. Not everyone knows what it means. Basically, swinging is like

When there's like a married couple and then there's another swinger couple and they like trade spouses and then it's just cool. Like they're all good with it. I don't know. I don't know exactly the technicalities of each situation, but that's what swinging is. It's like a trade, but with your wife. And apparently there's a logo for swingers and it's the pineapple.

So if you put like a pineapple on your doorstep or whatever and then notifies your neighbors that you are a swinger. I assume most people aren't so public with it. But the whole reason we even got on this is because I wanted to go and put pineapples outside of Justin's house while he was gone and make all of his neighbors think that him and his

His wife, our swingers. It'd be funny because I'd walk out and I'd be like, these aren't pumpkins. It's not Halloween. I don't know what's happening. Why is there all these pineapples? I don't even like pineapple. Dude, one of our younger podcast listeners is going to walk out his door right now and he's going to come back home. There's just going to be a pineapple. It's going to be a rude awakening. And he's going to have to learn the hard way. Oh my gosh. Statistically, probably. There's somebody out there that's listening right now.

Yeah, probably. Sorry, buddy. Dude, I hate to think of it, though. Poor kid. That's okay. He'll figure it out. His whole house is decked with pineapples. What do we got going on over here with the waters on that side and me and Justin getting into it over here? It's called hydration. Same. You know, I've been known it's happening for a while. I've been drinking more, and I've been eating less healthy, and I've been carrying less.

But I always had just my youth to get with me. Thank you, Ken. I could just, with my youth, I could just get away with it. Like, it didn't really look like I didn't care about myself. And then I saw a picture this weekend. Actually, it was a Snap story.

And I saw myself in it, and I actually, before I realized it was myself, I went, who the fuck is that guy? And then I saw it was me.

And I looked like a little alien. I had an E.T. belly. And I went, man, I got to figure something out. So I've worked out twice this week. Nice. And I'm drinking water. Dropping the podcast beers. Dropping all weekday beers. I feel like I've just been tired lately, so I'm trying not to drink as much and just eat better. Like granola bars. See, it's healthy. It's like an athlete type of thing. Ken, you kind of showed a little glimpse there, but can you get back up and show the camera your shirt?

Ken, come over here. Ken's not trying to freaking incriminate himself. Commit tax fraud. Can there be a... It's like...

It's like Buddy. Have you ever seen the Shithead Steve page? No. Ken, I'm just saying, out of all of the shirts you could wear, you're trying to put a red flag on yourself to the IRS? I commit tax fraud. Look into this guy. It's a joke. You should know about it. You say it all the time. It's a joke. Yeah, I know, but you could also say the same of wearing a shirt that says like,

sex offender. Somebody's like, wow, that shirt seems super aggressive. And you'd be like, it's a joke. Are you actually a Nike champion? What does that say? Are you a Nike champion? It's a t-shirt. Live with it. It's funny.

I do. It just seems oddly specific, being that you haven't paid your taxes in the past couple years. Can you prove that? Because I have the receipts that I did. Look, it's all fun and games until you got an audit. So far, knock on wood, haven't been audited yet. Well, you just wore this shirt for the first day on two videos now.

Hey, some people think it's funny. You guys can't take a joke. I think it's hilarious. I think it's so funny, Ken. Why Barney? Because it's random. It's hilarious. The mascot for tax evasion is Barney. I waited a month for this t-shirt. The worst part is Ken gets this t-shirt and he puts it on like instantly. No, I got it yesterday. Every person today, individually, I was filming.

And it was like, I said, Ken, what's up with the shirt? And then we go on a little bit. Ryan comes walking into the room. He goes, Ken, what's up with the shirt? Ben shows up an hour later and goes, Ken, what's going on with the shirt?

And then I changed the shirt and then I got soaking wet so I had to put it back on. Oh my gosh. Why'd you change the shirt? Because I'm sick of you guys making comments. You already incriminated yourself. I want to know what he changed into. Commit treason? Basically. No, you just put on an orange jumpsuit then. Right.

treason it's just like a really hardcore barney commit treason shirt every t-shirt ken wears is just incriminating himself in one way or another i think it's a great shirt ken and i hope nothing bad comes of it i did report it to the irs this sounds like you planned something and you're you're you're conspiring over there yeah i can't because i have a lot of connections at the irs i don't know if you do i probably reported you

Hey, keep an eye on this guy. What makes you say that? He's wearing a shirt that says, I commit tax fraud. It doesn't say, I committed tax fraud. It just says, commit tax fraud. Oh, so it's like, I'm not a drug dealer, but I think you should drug deal. It's basically... Deal drugs. Yeah. Another one. It's got Barney on it again. Why? Why Barney? Barney's the face of all evil. Yeah.

breaking the law. He's just so innocent. You never would have expected it. I know. Mike, you may. I just imagine you scrolling and just coming across that one and going like, yup, that's me. Look at that. Molly.

Mike's got a more too. Ben, that's actually what happened. I was like, you know what? That's a funny shirt. 20 bucks. I'll buy it. I can stick me in that. Was that actually from Shithead Steve? It was. Dude. Okay. All jokes aside, he has some ridiculous merchandise. They're hilarious. They're great. I love them. I haven't ordered any because I don't want to incriminate myself.

I haven't ordered any because none of them truly ring true to me. As soon as Justin can broadcast himself to, you know, like a million and a half people, he'll be sure to put it on. That was like the first pitch at a baseball game. He's wearing it. Next podcast Justin comes on, he just has a giant upside-down pineapple on his shirt. Start repping it. Jeez.

He goes home and there's just like an entire freaking commercial bus of people outside. Jesus. Yeah, we just started driving and picking people up. That would have made the prank even funnier if I just sent random people over after and had them keep showing up naked and stuff. Yeah, your place actually got put on the map, so it's mandatory. Everyone comes through Detroit Lakes. There's like a zillow for swingers.

That would be crazy. Dude, I bet there is. You know how like when you go on YouTube, sometimes a homepage just suggests random videos? Well, I think it was Vice. They did like a docuseries on this like resort slash like condo place in Florida where basically it's for swingers.

And they all live there and, like, walk around and swing. Just randomly popped up in your Explorer page. Yeah, no, it's on Vice, dude, because they have a bunch of different documentaries. But anyways. Vice used to have the craziest, like, stories ever. They're hit or miss. It's so weird because they have, like, different people every time. I feel like they just needed to do...

I guess it's tough. Obviously, you want to do as many as possible, but they should just have one guy that just runs the whole thing and does all the best stories. Yes. I think Peak Vice was like 10 years ago with the North Korea stuff. Yes. That was the Peak Vice. It was downhill from there. North Korea stuff? Yeah. It's like, I don't know who the founder is. He...

got like a ticket or like an invite to go tour North Korea and like film the whole thing. Yeah. It was a great document. And they were able to film it? Yeah. Are they able to show like true North Korea or did they set it up like they did in the interview where they have like fake grocery stores? They're like, okay, you can film this, you can't film this, but they still filmed it and they're like,

oh no no no we're not recording do that whole bullshit holy frick that is ballsy when you're in North Korea you're playing life or more so work camp yeah work camp I don't even want to say death death would be like best case scenario life or work camp sounds like it'd be on a shirt hard labor

Today's episode is brought to you by Angie. Angie has made it easier than ever to connect with skilled professionals to get all your jobs and projects done well. Let me tell you, there's the version of it where you try to do something at home and then there's a version of it where you have someone help you, you watch them do it the right way and you go, thank God I didn't try to do that myself.

I have fully done things around the home that I think look good and then a bang in the night and I wake up to a shelf collapsing, a painting falling off the wall. Like it, I've seen it all go south. I own a home and I can tell you, I know how much work it can take. Whether it's everyday maintenance and repairs or making dream projects a reality, it can be hard just to know where to start. But now all you need to do is Angie that and find a skilled local pro who will deliver the quality and expertise you need.

Whatever your home project, big or small, indoor or outdoor, you can Angie that and connect with skilled professionals to get the project done well. Right now, one of my wish lists is I want a bike for my condo in Milwaukee and I would love to rig it up on a pulley in the ceiling because I have one of those like lofted ceilings.

but I'm so scared to try that on my own. Angie has 20 years of home experience and they've combined it with new tools to simplify the whole process.

For nearly 30 years, Angie has helped millions of homeowners hire skilled pros for the projects that matter. From

From plumbing to electrical, roof repair to deck upgrades. So leave it to the pros who will get your jobs done well. Hire high-quality certified pros at Angie.com. Dude, it's terrible over there. That's what I'm saying. Like, Vice used to be, like, crazy, crazy stories. They had, like, one where they infiltrated, like, a drug cartel in the Congo or something. It was just, I can't believe they got away with it where this dude...

Just plain Jane white guy walking around, put on like a vest and some cargo shorts and somehow didn't just get beheaded while he was around these crazy, crazy drug cartel people and like documented everything. It, they had so many years of this crazy documentaries. And then it just kind of like,

I think CBS or somebody bought them out. I feel like just after that, they've just been way too corporate. And it didn't have the same spice and kick. What do you guys think would be more nerve-wracking? Filming a prank or filming a documentary in North Korea? Documentary. Depends on the prank. I'm joking. Also depends, is the prank with cheddar? If it's a cheddar prank, I'm taking Kim Jong-un.

I bet Cheddar would prank Kim Jong-un. He just doesn't deny it. He's like, I might. It's crazy the extent that certain journalists will go to, especially in the countries like Afghanistan. Oh, yeah. It's like damn near guaranteed death. They live in constant fear, and they're just doing it because they love journalism and they want people to know the truth.

And it's wild how many people do that. And then they're under protection. And then as soon as the protection goes away, gone. When a power structure falls apart, the first people always go are the journalists. Because they're the ones who like are saying truth to power. And like if something super corrupt is happening and they're trying to get it out to the people, a lot of them will just like gone. Yeah, it's wild. Do you think that the United States is like getting in that direction just because of like, I don't want to say corruption, but just like,

shielding of truth i don't know i feel like as a country i feel like we have a skewed sense of how bad it really is not saying it's great it's certainly not but there are way worse off countries in the world that are like truly seeing really really gnarly corruption and not saying that we're not going to get there totally possible would really suck but we're far out from that i think

And maybe that's silly for me to say. Maybe it's way worse than we all know. We're just, we're ran by a bunch of old people who don't know what they're doing and they don't really understand the

modern United States and it just seems like there's a disconnect between what people want and what the government does regardless of who's running it and nobody's ever happy. What do you think modern United States like what do you mean by that? I feel like everybody's really divided but they're less divided than they feel like they are if that makes sense. I feel like people in general have a lot more in common than they think they do and there's just the narrative that like people

people can't get along and you have two polar opposite sides, but like we all have friends all across all different parts of a political spectrum. And we're kind of living truth that you can get along with anybody if it's not

If your life doesn't revolve around one polarizing thing. I don't know. It's kind of like the Twitter example where like people think that what happens on Twitter is real life just because stuff on Twitter gets traction. It's not necessarily that there's a lot of people that are on Twitter that believe that happens on Twitter. It's just that the stuff on Twitter gets traction from high profile people. So then more people think that that's like,

a big deal when, I don't know, only like 15% of the population is actually on Twitter or some crazy statistic. No, I don't either. I have no interest in Twitter. It's all just negative. I've got Twitter in years. If something big happens on Twitter, they get like the little API thing cut out and it gets posted somewhere else. Yeah, exactly. It's,

It's almost like Reddit where stuff happens there and then it just gets posted elsewhere. So if it's a big deal, it's always going to find it everywhere else. There's just so much garbage to sift through. Yeah, exactly. That's the problem. It's a great platform if you want to like...

air out your laundry and just be angry for 10 minutes and then just log off and whatever. But it's just, I don't know. I've never really. What benefit does that do to the world? Yo, what the fuck ever happened? I guess Elon backed out of buying Twitter. Yeah. Dude, I guess he got caught. And don't quote me. I guess this is just what I heard. I guess he was like hooking up with one of the workers at Twitter and it was his mistress and got her pregnant. Damn. No, that was SpaceX. Yeah.

Oh, totally different. Never mind. Anyways, now he's backing out of buying Twitter. I thought he was going to save us. What's that have anything to do with Twitter, though? There was something that popped up where it was like he wanted to sell like $7 or $8 billion worth of Tesla stock. But the only way he could do that without like tanking the stock price was to like make a major investment in this corporation. So like when he announced he was going to sell Twitter, he then went through, sold a bunch of this Tesla stock,

and now that he's backing out there's a one billion dollar breakup fee that he might have to pay holy shit but by the time you do like the tax liability stuff it's only really like 600 million so then 100 million for lawyers and all that stuff so like he still gets like six or seven billion dollars out of this deal that's so crazy and didn't affect the tesla stock i mean it still went down but it like didn't material affected stock price at all so it was just a

I think like it's, Oh, look, look what's happening over here. Well, I do this over here. Really? That's what it kind of seems like, but nothing. None of that's confirmed. Nobody knows. I guess Twitter's suing Elon Musk now. Yeah. What? Why? I'm not sure. Like breach of contract. Yeah. Cause it's basically terminated their deal. They want the sale to go through, but Elon's like, ah, fuck it. So we're worst case scenario pays him a billion bucks. He's,

He's out of there. Just a bill. Just a quick billion. Just think of it. It's a billion dollars. And for him, it's like a drop in the bucket. Dude. That is such a wildlife. How much do you think that guy sleeps?

I think he's told he sleeps like to the minute, like I think five hours and 45 minutes, like down to the minute. That's anything more he doesn't need or doesn't like benefit him and anything less he can like feel. So that's like his pocket. He breaks down like the way that he spends time. So when he was talking about buying Twitter, all the investors of Tesla were like, oh, is this going to affect the stock price? Is this going to affect the company? He's like, no, no.

I spend exactly 78% of my time on Tesla, 3% of my time on Neuralink, 2% will be on Twitter, the rest on SpaceX and whatever else. Like, he breaks it down, like, percentage-wise, but, yeah, he's just a robot. I have never met anybody like him, and obviously there probably isn't that many people like him because he's the only, like, robotic billionaire that exists that operates the way that he does. This is a huge generalization, but, like...

super wealthy people just seem to be like really savvy business people who made right investments and like made great companies and then just built and built and built with investments over time. And he is one of a few people that is constantly, it's everything he does is very innovative and,

There's so many directions that it goes all at once. It's not like Amazon and Bezos, granted another incredible entrepreneur, whatever you think of them. It's like he has one major like focal point that he goes down and it's very successful. He has branched out after it became successful. But Musk has always had like multiple things going for a very long time. It's just, it's strange. He's a, he's a robot literally is the only way you can describe it.

Except I guess he sounds like he loves a fuck. The dude literally does not know how to pull out. Yeah, he doesn't, dude. Twitter is the only thing he's ever pulled out of. That was good, Ken. That was good. It's true. It's like nine kids. This guy's freaking trucking all these girls. What? He has nine kids? After like, I think the SpaceX lady, that's like his, I think he or she had twins, but it's like nine kids now. Oh my God. Sorry, that just like killed me.

He's just this incredible entrepreneur. And he loves to fuck. He does, yeah. He has like four or five women, too. Damn. Think he's a swinger? Sounds like he was bringing home Amber Heard and that other gal. That was a weird time for society, the whole Amber Heard, Johnny Depp thing. I think going back to what you said on how the United States is separated, I think that was one of the things that brought everyone together.

Everyone can agree that Amber Heard was a psycho bitch. God damn, that sucks for her. But also she did it to herself. Yeah, big bummer. Big bummer. Yeah, she did that to herself, though.

She'll be okay. Yeah, I think she'll be fine. I don't know if she... How do you ever recover from something like that? Well, actually, you're right. She totally lost a lot of money by... Lost money, lost credibility, lost... Like, she'll probably never get... Any chance picked up again. Give it five years. People forget. She got cut from all of her movies, I think. Yeah. Imagine why she owed Johnny Depp, like, $26 million, and she's worth, like, $10. Well, she had to pay out...

like just shy at 10 million for this most recent lawsuit but then there's other lawsuits that are involved and then she still owes the aclu and whatever i can't remember what the other god damn that's crazy she owe them she just like pledged to donate to them but she didn't like so she hasn't she pledged so if you pledge to make a donation do you have to make the donation like can you just say oh sorry things things happen i can't i don't have the money yeah i don't know

Is that a thing? Everybody got like so infatuated with that because it was just like it was like real time, real housewives type shit where it was just like, oh, my God, this is very entertaining. The craziest shit happened every day. Also, who shits on somebody's pillow? Crazy. Somebody who is mentally deranged. Yeah.

How, Ken, how mad do you got to be to shit on somebody's pillow, in your opinion? You got to be mad. Like, how mad? Would you ever do it, Ken? No. Would you? No. If you're super, super pissed. What if it was like Evan shit on your pillow, would you go shit on his? I would go have diarrhea on his pillow. You would just take laxative? Yes. You'd probably unkneed it. Yeah, that'd be a shitty day. Do you think he got pinkeye?

I bet he got a hotel. There's no way you can walk into the bed like that. You can clean it all you want. You have to get a new bed. He probably burned it. He gets a girl. She poops in the bed or something. I'm obviously leaving for the night. You're buying a new bed. I've got a hotel. Do you think it was exaggerated, though? Not like, I'm not in Camp Heard or anything. Do you think that it was skid marks? No. I think it was a full-on log, dude.

You think so? Otherwise, why would it be such a thing? I don't know because it's – That's like one of the funniest things I've ever heard a girl do. It's pretty funny. If she did that on purpose, that's fucking funny. I'd be proud of that. Do you think it was mid-argument or do you think it was like post-argument? Like they get in a fight and she's like, I'm pissed, and then just dumps in the bed? I think so. Or do you think it was like mid-sparring? She's like, you're a piece of shit, and just hops up on the bed and drops it. Dude, I don't know.

I don't know. What are you doing? I can't even put myself in that position. You know how like after you nut, you have post nut clarity. Do you think after she dropped the log, she was like, oh, I shouldn't have done that. Post log clarity. Oh, this is going to end poorly for me. I'm cleaning that up.

Your girl can do certain things and you just brush it on. Move on with it, but that's just one of those. You just brush it off, roll it off the bed. You said brush it on. Brush it off. Yeah, yeah, sorry. Sorry. That one, man. Yeah, that's super gnarly. So what's your guys' opinion?

On this whole online gambling thing, becoming bigger and bigger and bigger. You see Drake just won $12 million? $17 million. $17 million. That's what made me think of it. What on earth, dude? Dude, I want to try. That's what I think. I think it's all a scam. Hey, guys. Quick break in the podcast today for a word from our sponsor, Vessi.

It's a bit of a joke around here that I say I don't go anywhere near the water unless I'm wearing my Vessies, but it's true. These really are the best shoes for our unpredictable lifestyle. Vessies are perfect for wearing around the shop because one minute you might be at your computer and the next you're riding through a puddle, pressure washing your car, or filming in the rain.

Vessies are made from Dymatex, a dual climate knit material, meaning they breathe in the summer but yet are still warm in the winter and 100% waterproof. The best part about Vessies is you don't have to change in and out of clunky boots. Vessies are comfortable, lightweight, and breathable just like normal shoes. And unlike boots, you can wear these to the grocery store and fit right in.

Vessi's keep your feet dry and comfortable all day long, whether you're outside, working your desk, or anything in between.

Thank you, Vessi, for sponsoring today's podcast. Now back to the content. To what degree? It's a scam as in you can't win or you think that they just rig it for these influencers? I kind of feel that way. I feel like they always have some kind of video going where somebody wins big.

And it's always some kind of big influencer. It's kind of like the whole milk. What was it? Ruben or whatever it was where, you know, they're, they're not gambling with their own money necessarily that, you know, it's not proven or anything, but it's suspected. And I just, it just feels fishy where it's like,

I feel like the odds might be different if you're at one IP address and then this other IP address where the public might go to, the odds might be completely messed with. Because it's all online. It's all offshore. It's not regulated by the U.S. I think if you're wearing a hat and a T-shirt that is the name of the website that you're gambling on, your odds are probably higher at winning. And I don't have any problem with it, but I'm just saying in...

When I think about doing it myself, I'm like, what are the odds I actually win? And you have to have a lot of freaking money to play with. If you want to do it from the U.S., you have to jump through so many different hoops. You have to get a VPN. How legit can this business be?

And it's just like, something seems fishy. There's so many videos on the internet about it. Do people lose? Oh, yeah. A lot of people. You have to lose in order for a CEO to win. The thing with Rubit was if you used a referral code, that creator got a cut off of your losses. So they talk about how they... That's a model. So now...

I guess with Steve will do it as the example, they talk about how they gamble with their own raw balance. And every time that they stream or make a video on it, they get like a hundred grand to gamble with. And you can either take that a hundred grand and you could gamble 50 of it. If you lose all that 50, you could take the other 50 and walk, or you could do the 10 grand walk with 90. Probably. It's probably actually something in the contract. That's like, you have to gamble at least 75% of it. But yeah,

I know that that's how they're like, this is my own money because then they like give it to them as like endorsements. That's their payment for doing the plug. But with Drake winning $17 million on a roulette, one roulette game. That's going to be just Drake's.

payment for doing a promo at that point. 17 million? You think Drake's getting paid 17 million? He was doing it in a strip club when he won. That's hard. He was at a strip club playing on his computer. How weird is that to think? That's very strange. You go to the strip club and then you just bring your computer with you. A guy like that is enormous. Why the fuck do you have a laptop in a strip club? Because he probably lives there. That's disrespectful, bro. Yeah, he's like, yo. You pull up and like, nice.

Yo, is that against the rules to like work from a strip club? Like when you're working from home, like imagine being in a zoom call and you're at the strip club. Ben, Ben, just pull out your phone. They slapped that shit away from you immediately.

Right, but can you do it with a computer? I don't know. They're like full streaming. They got like a camera set up and everything. Oh, I suppose, yeah. Regardless, that is such a wild thing to me that you can just go online, bet on roulette, and just walk out with $17 million. It does make me kind of want to gamble, though. Some of my wife's cousins, they're really into sports betting, and every time I watch them get into like a long parlay of sports bets, it's just like, okay, this could be really fun because it's not really high risk.

And it can pay out really well. And you can just bet on random stuff. Like you can bet on somebody playing a video game. You can bet on somebody playing basketball. You can bet on tennis. You can bet on literally anything that is televised and you can get paid for it.

So if you win, yeah, if you win, but it's not. So are the odds of winning, like betting on sports better than if you were to go and play like a game like blackjack or roulette or anything like that? I think the appeal to sports betting is that there's, it's not purely up to chance. So like,

you can go back and you can see, all right, this player has been doing this well over the last seven games. And you can look at their, you can go back and see all their statistics and say, I'm betting that this player is going to score over 25 points in this game. There's such thing as professional gamblers. Oh yeah. Their job is literally, they just bet on a bunch of games and like study and like, they're just constantly doing it. So like sports betting, that's based on like skill, um,

like gambling. Relatively. Table games is like a game of chance is how you would technically, I think, call it. For the most part, but obviously in poker you have a higher chance of winning if you're good. Poker, blackjack, I mean roulette. Roulette, that's strictly chance. There's obviously a higher probability depending on what you pick. We were at the roulette table in Vegas, and I'm standing next to this guy that just walks up,

I'm down. I'm losing, like, everything. I think I lost, like, 700 bucks at this one table. Yikes. So I'm just, like, not having a good time. This guy walks up, super drunk, and throws down, like, a hundred chip, like, a hundred dollar chip on, like, a bunch of different numbers, right? And I'm watching this just like, oh, this guy's fucked. The roulette lady deals him out, and he goes...

Honey, this one's for you. This one's for you. Like betting her tip and puts it on the number two. And then...

the number gets a $3,500 payout. And then she gets a $3,500 page payout. And she was celebrating. He was celebrating. I was over there like, God damn it. Yeah. I think I even lost my hand on that one too. Yeah. Seven grand gets one and you're just like, fuck. But yeah, I even lost and just watching them like celebrate. I was like, Oh,

That was pretty fun. I should stay here and do another hand or two. Okay, so when you guys are in Vegas, what's your go-to games to play? Blackjack. Blackjack. And a little bit of roulette with Evan. Evan loves roulette. I hate the chance of just throwing random chips on random spots and be like, we'll see what happens. I hate that.

The thing about blackjack that's fun is the camaraderie with the homies. Yeah, true. When the table's hot and everyone's winning and the vibes are up, and then the dealer is kind of working with you guys and they're celebrating the wins too, and it's just like you're getting free drinks and...

And it's like a whole vibe and it's a whole time. And even if you wash completely and you spend an hour there, you go up a grand and you lose it all and you go back to zero. And you're like, you never walk away like I should have walked at a thousand bucks. I mean, you do, but you're like, man, that was a good time. You just always is pretty. You just spend an hour. Didn't lose any money. It's not always how it goes, but didn't lose any money. Got free drinks and got to have an absolute time with the boys. You get free drinks when you're at the tables.

Yeah. You've never been to Vegas? So I've been to Vegas once to literally land on a plane and then drive out of Vegas. So when we go for SEMA, that's going to be my first time ever actually spending time there. You basically have to gamble for a little bit, and then the drinks girls will come and take your order, and then basically tip them, basically. That's it.

And if you're Ken, you don't even have to tip him. He just wears the tax evasion shirt. Stay away from this guy. We don't want to take his money. They pay him. They're like, you're going to need it. I know specifically I had to tell you, you have to tip these girls.

Oh, okay. Well, yeah. Yeah. I mean, you know, I mean, I guess I caught you, but no, I mean, right when we got there. Yeah. Yeah. And I said, well, how come you weren't then? I was. I think you were paying him for other reasons, though.

To load the deck or what? Yeah, he's doing something. We won't talk about fans, man. What is it, man? I don't want to know. Okay, but Blackjack is at its worst when you're leaving the club. You're like, oh, I'll go. I've been drinking all day. I'll go gamble a little bit. It's 4 a.m. Can't count. Can't do anything. Like,

Like three plus five. Can't count. I'm hardly breathing, but I'm at back jack, baby. What's the most that you guys have like won on a table in Vegas? I don't know if you can say dollar amounts, but no one's won. What do you mean one? Why am I going to Vegas with you guys? Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

I didn't say we won money. I just said we had a good time and the vibes were high. The best I've done is I've been even. Damn. That's the best. When you walk out of the casino at 4 a.m. and you didn't lose any money, you're like, whoo!

Is it true that there's literally like slots or roulette or tables in like every hotel and everything? Everywhere. I am so incredibly jealous of you. Being able to experience this for the first time when you go. Oh, yeah, I'm stoked. I'm very stoked. The first thing you'll see the second you step off the airplane is a slot machine. Funny story about slot machines. The only time...

it's not the only time but my dad once won a couple hundred bucks on a slot machine right before he boarded his plane home from vegas he was there for work and he had like he was like all right i didn't gamble at all toss like 20 bucks into a slot machine walked out with like 700 that's

That's awesome. Yeah. So I'm really hoping that that's like a genetic thing and that just gets passed down to me. I'm sure it is. So I'm hitting one airport slot machine and then I'm just hanging out after that. If it hits, I'm going nuts. If I'm not, I'm just going to stay in the airport. Dude, our buddy won a hundred grand off of a scratch off last week. Yeah. What? Yeah. There's a hundred thousand dollars scratch off. I guess. $50 tickets. Where?

In Moorhead. Moorhead. No way. That's crazy. He sent a picture and he's like, what does this mean? Because it like made none of the numbers like lined up. It made no sense. 100 racks. Like went to the gas station, scanned it, and they're like, oh, no, you have to go to the office. And then that office is like, you have to go to Minneapolis.

So did he find out when he got to Minneapolis or did they like tell him beforehand? No, I think it was like when he went to the gas stations. They told him. This is a big winner. Which is how funny would that be? You get to Minneapolis like sick dude, 10 bucks. Dude, I'd be tweaking holding that little ticket. I'd be like fuck. I think he was. What if this thing rips? What if it fucking blows away? What if I lose it? I would be like holy. Somebody steals it? Dude, I don't care what time it was. I'd just start driving right to Minneapolis. Oh yeah. I'd just drop everything. Yep.

Started driving. $100,000 on a pull. That's insane. That's absolute. You said scratch off or a pull tab? Scratch off. I had a pull tab in my head. That's why I was super mind blown by that. You're sitting at the end. I know. Sitting, eating a burger just like, oh, that's $100,000. Sick.

No, a scratch-off, I guess, makes sense. But, man, that is the most I've heard from – I don't know anybody who's won, like, a lot. I clearly don't know anybody who's good at gambling. I've never known anybody to, like, win big on a scratch-off. Well, Ken, you just got to put enough money in. Keep trying. Except for you, Ev. You always lose. Yeah. Quit trying. Quit trying. Just quit while you're right now and not ahead. When we were walking out at lunch today, Evan put a couple bucks into the pull-tab machine as soon as you left.

He goes, oh, we left. And he didn't realize I was still in there. I go, Evan. Did you win? How much did you put in? Ten. Ten bucks? It'd be one thing if you were pulling winners, Evan. But, dude, I've been friends with you for three years. I've never seen you win on pull tabs. What about that night you dropped out early? And I won all the money back. Yeah, to be even.

The last time you guys were there, what was the itinerary for the trip? What was it like? You get off the plane. The thing about Vegas is there's actually kind of not an itinerary, and that's what's fun. But you just bounce around, and half the crew might just go downstairs in the hotel and be degenerate gamblers, and the other half might just walk around. Ryan went and got a massage during half the day. That was a terrible massage.

Ryan goes, that was a terrible representation of Vegas. Everybody has a great time. You gamble, you drink, you get massages. Everyone else is gambling. Ryan's getting massages all day long. It's the most relaxing trip of my year, dude. It's great. No, you can literally do whatever you want there. That's what I was saying. Even a spa day. So the thing about SEMA is the show. Ryan did a spa day. Yeah.

I actually go to Vegas for the salt floats.

So the thing with FEMA is it takes up like the entire Las Vegas Convention Center and it's gigantic. So you can't physically see, like you can't walk through all the different booths like in one day. So it's just like, okay, you know, let's look at this place. You know, they have off-road stuff. It'll take you a while and it's like, I am so overstimulated. I got to go do something else. I got to get out of here. Ken was all overstimulated because he was on Molly. Yeah.

He's sitting in the bathroom just freaking out. Okay, that was the worst representation of Vegas I've ever heard. Dude, just all in all, just terrible. I might do that this year. I might do a spa day and settle, lose less money. Oh, my God, that was funny. We went out. Normally, you go to SEMA. It's really fun, but you could walk all day and not even see a portion of it. So then...

You quit walking and you go to the casino and you go gamble. And that is fun. And then normally you go out to dinner and then we either plan on going to a show or don't plan on going to a show and then end up going anyway. Nice. Find a show, go, stay there until about 2 a.m. And then you either come back and gamble like an idiot, which we all do, or you go to bed like a smart guy. And then so the reason I got a massage is I woke up

ridiculously hungover at, because I was out till like 5 a.m., and all the breakfast places are closed, so the only option to eat was like a Philly cheesesteak. So I go get a Philly cheesesteak, try to get not hungover, and I walk by those little like mall massage things, you know, where they put you on the bench, and then they... Oh, this is where this is going. Yeah.

Yeah, tell the massage story. I got to clear that up, dude. You've got to clear the air. This is why Ryan sat down, to clear the massage story. Yeah, of course. We got to know. I got to know what I'm going to do when I'm there. So that when you're really hungover. So where's the best massages, Ryan? Well.

Whichever one's nearest. And so, no, I walked by and the sign was like 30 minutes for $30. It was the best deal in town. That's a pretty killer deal. Yes. I sat down, got a little massage and felt great. Hangover gone. Unironically, did it help the hangover? Yes. No, definitely. It was great. This is going to sound weird. Can you hire out masseuses? Yeah.

For like special room delivery? Yeah, is that a thing? I think that's just called prostitution. No, no, no, no, no. And yes, Vegas has that too. That sounds like a Vegas thing that you could like, you know, get room service for food. Well, you can get that. I got Ken one in Florida. Yeah, you can hire a...

masseuse to show up. Did you really do that in Florida? We woke Ken up for his big race with his Asian masseuse. The Asian? No, no. Like an actual masseuse. He cost like $200. Like a professional. Woke Ken up out of bed. Imagine this random Asian dude that barely speaks English. Like, good morning! Ken's like, are you ready for your massage? Ken has no idea what's going on.

And then he sees us just sitting there filming in the corner. And then he had everything all set up by the pool and Ken walked out and the guy starts massaging Ken, right? Ben walks up to the guy, switches out as Ken's face down, starts doing all this weird shit to him, right? Like he gets up on the table and like mounts Ken. Like mounting him and he's like kind of rubbing him and Ken's just laying there. Then he starts just standing on the table.

And using his foot as like the massage. And he's like massaging between those circles with his toes. And then I get down in his ear. I was like, yeah, start that again. Oh my God. And isn't that when he turned around and he looked at me? Yeah. And he's like, oh,

He goes, oh my God, what happened to the Asian guy? And I go, oh, that was a roofer from next door. We paid to wake you up. And he turns around and he looks over and the house is getting a roof next door. And he goes, what the fuck?

This was the day that Ken was about to go head-to-head with professional race car drivers. Some of them were. There was a few out there. Yeah. Ken was nervous. He was on edge. I just remember hearing that. Let's just say it loosened him up. Something went wrong with your car, right? He goes, I ran over a barrel.

I crashed it. Yes, something did happen to the car. It was the driver. Mike, you want to hop in, buddy?

Ev, you want to hop in here? Fucking cracking up, though. This is funny. So, Evan's fuel pump was like... Fuel pump. Fuel pump was borderline about to go out on his truck, and he was like calling it, and then shortly after you said that, it did go out? Well, it turns out that the fuel pump actually didn't go out. It just quit working, but I assumed it did. So, like anyone, I cut a hole in the box of the pickup to save time. Yeah.

Instead of what? Dropping the gas tank? Well, yeah, either drop the gas tank or unbolt the box and take it all the way off. Okay. Or just cut a hole in it? Yeah. Okay.

And then put a new fuel pump in it. Still doesn't work. Found out there's some goofy control module and you have to like bring it to the dealership and have it calibrated. So we just wired it into the rear window defrost. So it'd be nice and factory, you know, a nice button that's already there instead of like a toggle switch. And it worked great. Until I found out that every 10 minutes the button resets. Yeah.

No! The defrost shuts off. So when I'm driving, like, from Duluth to the shop, I got to press the button, like, 35 times. And you know, like, you're driving, it doesn't just die immediately, but, you know... It actually got me in the construction the other day. So I'm down in, like, in one lane cones. I'm really focusing on driving, and I'm going slow.

And I just realized my truck isn't running. So I got to like pop it into neutral, turn the pump on, start it back up all with like no power steering. I'll drive it to construction, head on traffic. Yeah. Yeah. It was a little stressful, but. So your pumps got like an oven timer on it. Why does it, it just shuts off at one. Cause the defrosters are like, they only stay on for so long. Yeah. If I plug the fuel pump in, like it's supposed to, it goes through some module. Yeah.

that i didn't have access to at the time so yeah it just wired it to the switch and the switch i wired it to happens to be on a timer yes maybe shift out to like the fog lights or something that probably would have been a good idea hindsight that's another fog lights were in the front of the truck so you had to run i mean what you tapped in there because it was in the back no i went right into where the fuse should go oh you just shoved the wire in there no shit we can put

Yeah, just put it in a different spot. Five minutes. I mean, I ran it by my mechanic, Cole, and this was our best option. And it's funny because it seems, well, I mean, you're the one who has to drive it, but it seems so inconvenient. Is it? You know, right away it seemed really ridiculous, but at this point, almost a month later,

Just normal. It's part of the driving experience. Yeah. Which the Chev has a lot of. I remember my first time meeting you was you had just finished a trip across the state and you got here and your lug nuts were all too loose or something like that. And your wheel literally was falling off of your truck. It was just demolished. It did fall off. I had to go pick him up. Yeah, you had to pick me up in Wadena. And I just remember being like, dude, what happened to your truck? And you're like,

It's just the most mellow shit. Didn't even want to say, like, wheel fell off. And then we drove it off the trailer. I mean, you drove it off the trailer with three wheels and using the brake rotor as the fourth wheel. It'll get you home, though. Yeah. It worked out. Yeah, it all buffed. It all buffed.

Did you guys see the video of the, there's this guy who was modifying, he had a Tesla plaid and he like gutted the whole thing and had done some reprogramming and it was doing a track day with it, but he had bled his brakes like right before he went on the track and

And he replaced his high-performance brake fluid with standard Ford Focus brake fluid or something that was not up to par for the ceramic brakes that Plaid has. And he's doing 170 miles. It's like 150 or 170 miles an hour. It's fast down this straightaway on this track. And his brakes fail as he's coming into a corner.

It's the most terrifying. I wish I knew the guy's YouTube channel. It's incredible. It's a cool build and everything. Super bummer that it's like. Which doesn't exist anymore. It exists in pieces. But he had this incredibly fast Tesla, was doing a track day with it. And it's the scariest in-car footage I've ever seen of a car crash.

But if you're doing a Tesla build, why are you going to put DOT 3 brake fluid in? Oh, yeah. You're going to the racetrack. It doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense. He made a video of it afterwards where he's like, that was really dumb. Like most mistakes, you look back and you go, yeah, I was dumb. Shouldn't have done that. I saved $4 on the build. Yep.

But yeah, he's got this super jarring footage from the inside because he's got cameras all over the place. And he's going, he's like, 120, 130, 140. He's like, coming into turn seven. He's like, no brakes, no brakes, no brakes. And you see the car go sideways and then slam into a barrier. And this guy has no helmet, no fire suit, and no race harness. What?

What? A normal seatbelt, no helmet? He's running raw. He walked away. It's crazy. So I'm assuming he kept the airbags in this vehicle. I don't think so. Because I was going to say, I know Teslas have good airbags, but like what? And also to think that he basically, I mean, people have crashed going a little faster. Probably not many, but a gut. Yeah, probably not many. A gutted Tesla plaid.

has to be the fastest car that you can drive, basically, among a few.

I just can't believe he didn't have a helmet on or anything. Like don't they normally not let you onto the track? Don't you have to if your car is like a certain speed? Don't you have to have a harness and shit? Yeah. So there's like all, he explained all of it and I admittedly didn't watch the whole video. Sorry. But he, he basically had like these special circumstances where he had like rented the track for the day. So he was able to just like, he said it was just a test lap and then he starts giving her. And so he wasn't fully equipped and yeah. Yeah.

Bad news bears. Miraculous, dude. Yeah, unbelievable that he survived. But to confirm that electric cars are so cool is that one, he survived, and damn, it looked cool while he did it. It was so freaking fast that it doesn't even look real. As you see him going around a track, it's faster than any car I've ever seen go around a track, ever. Right. Looks like an RC car speed-wise. Yes, it looks like a Traxxas car that's scaled up. It doesn't make sense.

Well, what did Slim say? When you got the power to go, you need to have the power to go, whoa. I love how he said it like that. Whoa. Which is true. I remember when we had the car show and I got in this guy's BMW and it was like 900 horse, all-wheel drive. Jesus. Absolutely crazy.

blew my socks off. It was the fastest thing I'd ever, ever been in. And he comes cruising up and I'm like, I mean, I don't know how fast you're going, like well over a hundred. And I'm like, dude, like we're coming up on a truck. And then he like hits the brakes and it was the most like aggressive, perfect, like slow down ever. He goes,

I'm not going to build a car with this much power and not match the brake quality, which I'm like, that's the type of energy we like to see after doing a pull like that. So no helmet, regular seatbelt. There's no airbags in this thing. Is there no rear door? There's no rear door nor rear window. I mean, this thing is gutted to the gills. Yeah, really gutted. Okay, so right here, he's on the straight now. Did you hear him?

You told me that's not the scariest shit you've ever heard. Holy crap, dude. A grown man just going... He just knocked the wind out of him. He was good. You got a guy making deer calls? Holy crap, dude. Holy crap. Okay, so we hit tires. That makes it feel a lot better. Looks like some airbags went off.

No helmet, dude. I love how he was still vlogging up until basically him crashing. Literally the moment he crashed. So I thought it was crazy when I said 170. He said 160 on the tack. He slowed down quite a bit from there, but he had to have still been going above 100. That's insane. And the guy walked away from this. It's pretty impressive. Yeah. This is the same guy. I haven't seen this video, but this is the same guy who drove his test underwater in

I've been trying to get Ken to let us do that with his. Honestly, it looked... No, not that. Underwater. I watched the video of them driving the Tesla underwater. It looked like way more work than it was worth for the outcome. Glad he did it. Somebody had to do it, I guess. But he barely went underwater, and then they basically just drove it out. And it was like weeks worth of planning for nothing. But that was crazy. I just want to take Ken's car right now, pile the boys in, say we're going to go get dinner, and then just take it to drop by the beach first. And just...

I thought you were going to say find a tire barrier. Imagine how much cooler that crash would have been if it sounded like your Camaro. Just saying. That's true. You had the thing just... It's a scary crash, but at the same time, it's just like, oh, he's going fast. And it sounds like wind. So now he's not moving anymore. In a Tesla, I mean, so you're in a real car, you could have downshifted. Oh, you're saying a Tesla's not a real car? Yeah.

No, but you know what I mean? There's some options to slow you down a little bit. There's nothing you can do in a Tesla, right? You got no brakes and you let off the gas. If your brakes fail, you are at the mercy of the regen of the motors. If the regen is still working, the regen...

Slowdown of a Tesla is way more aggressive than your average car just rolling. Oh, yeah. Way more aggressive. So I think that's why he was going 160 and the regen kicked in, but he still was probably going at least 100 when he hit that wall. When Ken lets off the accelerator in it, I mean, it feels like someone's hitting the brakes. Yeah. Because when you take power from an electric motor, it just naturally starts to brake. Yeah.

So it just, I mean, still, it doesn't do much when you're doing 170. Well, Justin, I mean, we appreciate your time coming out today, dude. Appreciate you guys. Yeah, you're a great kid.
