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.

Welcome back to another episode of the Life Wide Open podcast with the usual cast, Ryan, CJ, myself, and Ben. Howdy. Hey, guys. We have a merch job coming this Thursday. It's going to be big, red, white, and blue, as you can probably guess. We'll get more into that later.

Rich has finally finished the track. He's back at home. We've hit it. It is unreal. It's the craziest time I've ever spent in the air for a long period of time. Mike's going pro. Mike, you are an absolute animal. You're a hidden wheel man, dude. Yeah, I guess. I love that a week ago we had to draw straws who had to hit the jump and the razor.

And now Mike is just a hidden wheel man in launching, like launching these jumps. I've never seen, I've maybe seen one jump as big as our biggest jump that Mike hit today. And he was just hitting that like nothing. Taking laps.

Yeah. Dude, it was like... I don't know if I've seen a side-by-side jump that big. Well, Florida, when I almost died. Florida tabletop. Yeah. That's the only one that was maybe comparable. That one was, like, really big, but that one had a nasty... Remember the lip on the landing? Like, if you didn't make it...

Which we almost didn't. Yeah, which is just bad. But this one, luckily, I was watching the videos back, though. Like, how far can you clap the suspension? Or actually, how many times can you do what I did? Just frame it out? I don't know. You were literally to the frame. Yeah, it was to the point where the whole suspension was maxed out, but then the tires started cambering in. I think we need to put, like, another set of wheels on the bottom in the middle. So, like, when you go down, there's, like, more suspension underneath because you're literally, like, scrubbing.

I was cracking up because, you know, Evan, we bring him out there and he's fully geared up from the moment that we're trying to film the Canada Dips brand deal. And then we're trying to take a thumb.

thumbnail, like this whole nine yards. He ends up just sitting there in his gear for like two hours out in the hot sun. He's like wondering when he's going to go ride. Cause he wanted to get back in mode. He was all hot and heavy over getting lawn mode. And then Mike just ends up and stealing the show. And then anyways, we're like walking back and I was kind of trolling him. I slightly feel bad about it, but I was just like, man, I think Mike's really got some potential. It's just me and Evan walking across the track.

And he's just like, oh, yeah, yeah. I'm like, dude, I think we need to enter him in some races. Like, you know, get behind him, sponsor him. Let's get him out there because I think he's got a chance. And Evan's just kind of like,

Yeah, yeah. And then we were getting shots of Evan. I thought that was me. He's not even riding a dirt bike. I'm like, no, racing, dirt bikes, everything. Yeah, we were getting shots of Evan wheeling across the field, and CJ just goes, honestly, I think the move is to have Mike do it. I know. Evan was confused. I'm like, dude, maybe we just have Mike do it. Like on your bike, Evan. And he just stares at us and he goes... He did mention that, though. He's like, dude...

I could have gotten the lawn done in the two hours I've been sitting out here. Poor dude. The lawn. Just gets his job stolen as like being the best dirt biker. And that's what I was joking. I was like, I think Mike's the best rider now. Like, let's have him do it. And he's like, well, what the hell? I thought that was me. Dude.

Dude, I mean, he... I want to take this moment to tell you that I'm very proud of you. Thanks. Same. Now that I have that on lock, I feel good, obviously. I feel really good. But for the record, like, for the rest of the crew, I think we still might have to draw straws. No, I would have no problem hopping in it. Now? But Ryan...

Was having none of that shit. Dude, I just almost... He was having none of that. Listen, I almost died once, and I was like, okay, I really didn't like that. Then I went around, and the razor was making a ton of clickety-clacky noises, and I go, ah, I just... That's just what it does. I know. I'm just being a pussy. They're launching it 40 feet in the air and coming down flat. It'll sometimes start to make some weird noises. That was before. Yeah, I launched it like 32 feet and came up really short. But then I...

I have a bad run in. I pull out. So I'm already like on the second one. I'm bad vibes all around. And I, I come in, I'm ready to go. And Ken's going, yeah, reaching out. Like there was a whole orphanage of babies at the end of the jump. Like everyone's like, like there was a kitten like walking across. It was, it was like this dire need for me to stop. And I went, Oh,

Hit the brakes. I went, something actually was happening to the Razor. So I pull off the track, and I'm like, I'm done. And he goes, sorry, I just had to get the camera going. Very nice of you. Thank you. I would have loved to be on. If something bad would have happened and we didn't have it on camera, it would have really sucked. But I just got iced, and I was like, I am done. Mike is coming back with his helmet right now. Like, let's just let him do it. And it was worth it.

Yeah, I mean, Mike put on a clinic today. He is now, he is no longer Pit Bike Mike. He's Moto Mike. Don't ever call him Pit Bike Mike again. He doesn't deal with that little kid shit. Dude, it's also so funny how, like, scared I still was. Ben's like, Mike, you just want to do it? And I'm like, and I've jumped the gap jump, like, at this point 20 times, and I'm still like, I literally looked you in the eyes. I was like, not really. I had the adrenaline rush of a lifetime yesterday.

But I'll do it. And then I was driving, and I was like, why am I nervous? I should concentrate on having fun. And then it all let loose. You know, this track is actually big when we can clear the SEMA truck by like three feet. Yeah. And that's not even like the biggest jump. That's like the medium jump, yeah. With the razor. With the razor. That was a skeptical part, too. Evan was clearing the SEMA truck with the dirt bike, but...

We were a little skeptical about the Razor. Well, the last giveaway dirt bike winner was out while we were doing the first test hit of the gap on the Razor. And anyways, we were riding our previous... Well, it's still our current, but our pit bike track that we've had for a while now. And the giveaway winner was out there and his friend. And both of them looked at me and go...

You know, these jumps are a lot bigger in person. I go, yeah, I know. Kind of sucks they look so small on camera because they were like, you know, on video, I'm like, oh, I'd hit those, whatever, but they ended up kind of just hanging tight. Yeah, it made me feel a little better. Like the one time we visited the Palmer compound and they were like,

yo for the record these are small jumps like they're not big jumps no matter what you say they're not big jumps we're like yes they are everyone's got a different definition of what a big jump is to them and a jump can be big but if you hit it like three times and you get the comfortable hitting it then it's just like whatever but you show up and you have no idea yeah to do it and everyone else is just sending it and not telling you you're like oh

That's really what it is. I wonder if there's like a word for that. But basically, before you hit all the jumps in the razor, whatever you're on, it's scary. It's terrifying. You don't want to do it. You finally do it. And even it takes one time and you're like,

That was easy. That was crazy, Mike. Did you ever think you would be airing it out like you were today and yesterday? No, dude, I don't. I got to shout out Rich for those jumps because they're perfect. And honestly, shout out Polaris because, like,

I don't think our Maverick would have even lasted. I know. We all said the same thing. The Maverick would have broken on the first, like, that double. We would have been like, all right, time to hit the double, and then, like, 10 tries in, and the Maverick would have broken. It would have broke looking at the jump. On our pit bike track. Yeah. Like, this was some serious...

That Razor is, and just the suspension, it's factory stock suspension, and it's just...

I mean, some of the biggest jumps. Yeah. So if anyone was like, I want to get a four-seater Turbo S and jump it. You know, before all that, I'd be like, no way. Don't do that. Get some agile, bud.

It's around, man. It's the magic school bus. That thing flies. It flies great, dude. It's so level. I almost wonder if you're better off with the four-seater. It's a good question. So, yeah, we're stoked on the track. There was a lot of money, a lot of hours, just a lot of everything to make what we made even possible.

And I know your guys' uncle with one eye can do better, but it's sick. But our Uncle Rich with both eyes, he did a dang good job. He did a dang good job. And he's a professional. I always get such a kick out of people commenting, really on any type of video that we make, that they're like, yeah, my friend's dad has a way faster car or my uncle's Mustang could wax that Camaro. It's like, dude, who fucking asked? But also, I doubt it.

Half the time. I think they're just talking out their ass. Maybe. And then occasionally you get the dude and he's like, oh yeah, I've got a really fast car. We should race. And then I'm like, okay, yeah. What are you driving? A minivan? He goes, yeah, I got a built...

A drag setup, Fox body Mustang. It's got like 1200 horsepower. And you're like, Oh, Oh, you were, you weren't kidding. I was like, no, we shouldn't race. Cause you'll just wax me. There's like so many levels to it. There's that when they had the legit machines and they're either being haters or they're like, nah, dude, I genuinely think I could beat that thing. Sick Carla, whatever. But then there's also the kids, uh,

These ones you can get actual entertainment out of when the kid's like, dude, you have a 600. I have an 1100 turbo. And it's like talking about the Arctic cat trail sled. And he's just like, yeah, it goes a hundred. And it's just like, that is just the beauty of a kid. Not understanding. I'm pretty sure I told somebody that my snowmobile goes 200 miles an hour when I was a kid. Cause skidoos go to 200 kilometers. I'm sure. I'm sure I told Ken's older brother. Oh yeah. My snowmobile goes 200. He's like, brother, that is a,

600. It's not. It is not. Dude, do you guys remember back in the day when we'd film at Jake's all the time and that little kid Dylan would come over? Dylan. I miss that kid, man. What do you think he's up to? Dude, I don't know. Probably in jail. I haven't thought about him in so long, but man, we have a lot of memories with Dylan. I'm sure he's like grown up now, but let's say he was like 12. I just remember when he came up to us on his little...

90 or 120 four-wheeler and he told us he's like yeah I can backflip it and so then of course instead of just going nah we're just like well hell yeah let's see it

And then he's like off to find a spot and he's like jumping over the road, just like halfway over the road, being like maybe here or something. Could you imagine Buddy just walks out? We just let him do it. We're like go for it right now. Do it. Landing on himself. Isn't it crazy how some people can just be compulsive liars and just not even smile? Or yeah, just not even be phased by it and then jump themselves right into another situation.

Tall tale. No, I know. And it's like, some people just never grow out of it. Like they just never stop lying about shit. That does not matter. And back there right now is trying so hard to be quiet about you lying about your trolls. I know. That is 100% different. Cause that's me messing with somebody. That's true. Deliberately. Deliberately. No around. I know. I know. But like just being a compulsive liar about things that are like, why would you lie about that? I,

I sometimes will throw in a lie to make it convenient, you know, to avoid explaining something or to, to just like steer the story one way. And it's never usually not harmful, but you're talking about people who are just like, yeah, they're just pulling stuff right out of their ass and they don't even know it.

that's so true though like the convenience side of things okay i had an appointment for my eyes this morning and she's like doing anything for the rest of the day and i was just like nope i didn't want to be like yeah i'm actually gonna go back we just built a dirt bike track and we're gonna that's me we plan on hitting some big senders off of it and then afterwards maybe hopefully we get a little rain and then we can play in our pond and like all these things and and

Yeah, I just avoid it at all times. I don't know if you guys do the same, but it's just so much easier to just not tell anyone ever what we're doing because it just makes no sense most of the time. This might be kind of a hot take, but what do you guys think is the correct response to a quick...

How are you doing? Good. I've been working on that because I think it's, we were just at the pub eating before this and it was like, this guy, he was just the most basic, small talk. It was just like, hey, how you doing? Good, good. How are you? Good. Yeah, yeah. How you been doing? And then he just doubles down and I'm like, ah. And then it was this, and then after that it was like, what you up to? And he's just like,

Getting food, getting drinks, and that is my response to the what are you up to. Do you guys foresee a future that small talk doesn't exist? Or is it one of those things that you're actually going to have to deal with for the rest of your life? I have a love-hate relationship with it, I guess. Because I was thinking about that the other day, too. I was like, man,

You see somebody. It's just almost nicer to just not see anyone that you know when you're out and about. I know. I was like shopping. I was like getting supplies for something at Menards. And I was like, man, I just really hope I do not see somebody I know right now and just have to make pointless small talk. It was like the other day when I go into TJ's to go get dinner by myself. And I walk in. I see some people over at this area. I'm like, okay, they're going to try to talk to me. Let's see what's over in the back. I get over to the back.

Some people go, CJ, hey, how's it going? I'm like, hey, keep working. Get to the patio. Same thing. People there. I go, man, you are so popular. No, I'm not really popular. So popular. We just live in a small town and you know all these people are going to start talking across to you and all this. And I did not want to deal with that. I wanted to just sit on my phone and...

As bad as that sounds. And just hide. Is that wrong? Honestly, I just didn't want to talk to people. I was not in the mood. Being a YouTuber or whatever aside, we're talking in our small town of Cormont, even I did that today at L&M Fleet. I saw someone and I saw them pushing their card and I was like,

He's probably gonna say hi to me Eh, dip the Next aisle But if you catch me in the right Right mood I'm like Where's everyone at? Like I wanna go over there And bullshit with them You know? That's true Basically if you have time on your hands So are you an extrovert or introvert When you're like that? Or are you both? Ah, shoot

I mean, I feel like we're all pretty extroverted because we're on different parts of the scale, but we're all pretty extroverted because we talk all day. And that's why I think like you get to dinner and you're like, all right, I have been talking to my friends and business partners nonstop since 9 a.m. I've been making plans. I have been doing this. I've been chatting with a camera. I've been doing a podcast. I just want to scroll. I'm done. I just like, I feel that way when I get home sometimes. I'm like, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I just need a TV. Yeah, I'm sorry, Wanda. I love you. You're great. I just need silence for like an hour. And then you just recharge your social battery and then you're good.

Or there's like the instance, it's really funny when we all go out to eat, when we're all on our phones, and when we're all collectively like shameless about it. It's so funny because we did spend... Everyone thinks we're so goofy for that. But I'm like, dude, I literally have sat around these guys all day for the past...

Five years. Yeah. Five years. And it'd be funny to actually just respond like that. But every once in a while, people are like, dude, literally, you guys are just not even speaking to each other. Yeah. You don't know the half of it. What else am I going to say to this guy? Isn't that funny how you can be with somebody, like me and you are in the truck together. Bro, we could go eight hours without saying a single word to each other. And it wouldn't be awkward at all. Comfortable silence. But then me...

Me and somebody like a high school friend, that wouldn't be cool. Well, I was going to just say like someone that you're like kind of homies with. That'd be very awkward. You literally drive from here to the track. Yeah, they're like, yo, can I just hop in with you? You're like trying to think of like a conversation, like something to say that tied over the time from here to here just so it's not awkward. I hate consciously having to think of what to say. Like if you have to sit there and use your brain power to think of something to say just because it's awkward.

Not even going to... Yeah, and it's one of those things where it's like, it's only awkward if you make it awkward, but realistically, if you just genuinely, like, generally speaking, if you sit in the car and don't say anything, it's kind of awkward. Whether you think it or not. Yeah, yeah. I agree with that. If I was going out to eat and I was with...

my family or some people i don't know i wouldn't pull my phone out and just sit there and scroll like i would talk and and you know make do with the time that we are together i always wonder how people do that when they just belly up to the bar because most most people that belly up to the bar and they just sit there for like hours on end and like have people coming and going next to them i'm like man how do these guys just make small talk with like the bartender or

joe sitting next to you or tom and harry yeah and then tom and harry that are just swinging through to grab their i think some people like look for a conversation there's a lot of people that need 100 you know they maybe don't have a job they're working alone at a desk and they don't really get to talk to people so then at the end of the day even if they love their job they're just excited to have someone to talk to yeah yeah

I suppose, yeah, that makes way more sense versus somebody that's kind of antisocial and them sitting there. It reminds me of Rich. I honestly felt bad for Rich, but this is also what he does. But he's in the dozer all day for like eight hours, eight, ten hours a day just by himself. The only time he talks to us is when he maybe stops and we come up and we're like, hey, do you want some food or like a water or something? But it's like...

He's relatively alone, and he loves to talk, but he's also really good at talking. He's fun to talk to. But Rick comes in, he's just chatting it up, and that's his time. I remember I was going to leave, and he's like, dude, I've been in the dozer all day. Hang out with me. I was like, you're right. I should hang out with you. So then I hung out with him. That's why he loved having Evan around, because obviously Evan's staying here, and Evan loves to talk. Yeah, Evan's a role in those guys. I was going to say, Evan...

He makes friends with every person that we introduce him to. And you know how many times I've just brought Evan along? Like when we were building the lawnmower at Zach's house, my buddy Zach. Zach, shout out Zach. I brought Evan with. And halfway through, I go, oh, shit. I'm going to go look at a house real quick that's just like down the way a little bit. So I'll be back in an hour. And I leave Evan there after meeting Zach like 20 minutes. And I come back and they are just...

Boys. Boys. They both got some beers and stuff. I'm like, oh, you guys made friends. Okay, good. I'm not surprised by that just because typically the people we hang out around are pretty easy to get along with. True. Makes sense. Especially those two. They had a lot in common. That's something I love about him. He can strike up a conversation with anyone. I think the most interesting thing about Rich is

is his little stint with Jake Paul. Yeah. He was like Jake Paul's right-hand man, and he was like building all these things for him. No one really knows. I don't know how public that is, but he wouldn't mind us saying it. Yeah. Building all these things around his house and like fixing his pool and like any issue he had. Then it got to be more than building. It got to be more than building. And then he was just...

His plug, like anything he wanted or needed, Rich has just got like these connections. That's basically all you need in life is you just need to have like enough connections to just be useful to your homies and then everyone is just like,

He's like still pretty in touch with them. Like I guess Greg Paul and him like chat every now and then pretty frequently. And then he was like, yeah, they literally called me the plug. And I was like, oh, we actually have a buddy, Rob. We call him Rob the plug. And so I just encourage if you don't have a plug in your life, you need to find one because it's good. Someone that just helps you out with anything. That or even a butt plug.

Mike's got a couple plugs. He's got one in right now. Sorry.

You know what's funny, though? In hockey, they always said, like, if you got called a plug, it was, like, a bad thing. Oh, okay. I never quite understood it. I feel like that'd be a good name for the goalie. But nowadays, that's, like, such a positive thing. Like, if someone told, like, yeah, CJ, you're the plug. What was the context of it? Yeah. To be, like, a diss. Buddy, you fucking plug? Like, I don't know. That's, like, something they would say, but I don't get it. It's a derogatory term. Maybe, like, you're just...

Filling a spot? I don't know. How dumb. Most of those terms are dumb. Bringing up hockey, I've never asked this question. Did you ever get in hockey fights? Not really, no. Really? Like before your conkeys, though? No, you couldn't fight people. He was in peewees. No.

No, you couldn't drop the gloves or anything like that. You couldn't? No. But you never got into any kind of hockey fight? I mean, you'd get in like a little scuffle in front of the net or like on your own, but it would always get broken up. Like they don't let it go. So if you drop your gloves in high school, it's not like a three-minute penalty. It's more of like a suspended for the game sort of thing. They'd be like, what the hell are you doing, dude?

You look like the biggest idiot. If you drop the gloves? What if you both drop the gloves? You both look dumb. What do you mean? If you both dropped it, I think they're slightly pulling back actually on hockey fighting. In hockey, they would have an enforcer on each team. I'm sure they still probably do, but the enforcer's job was literally they were just the fourth liner. They sit on the bench and they go out when it's time to fight someone.

That's so sick. Either get the team going or like maybe someone played a dirty hit on somebody. So they go out and like lay a hit on them or fight somebody, you know? What? Yeah. That's so sick. A lot of those enforcers are like pretty messed up in the head now. I'm sure they just kept getting like keep getting punched basically and whatever. And they do that like week after week or. So what would you say more is more common for head injuries?

someone like that who's a fighter or someone who's getting like checked and checking. I know it goes kind of hand in hand. I think fighters is probably the biggest, but I think, and I'm not like a professional on this, but I think actually, obviously boxers and stuff like that, but linemen for football, although it's not always the hardest of hardest hits, it's not like major collisions, but it's repetition of like head-on, but...

but I mean, nowadays, if you drive by like a high school and you look at like their high school football team practicing, they have like pads on top of their helmets. And I think they're just, people are a lot smarter now. Like you're not out in practice.

running into each other head on like they used to. At least I don't think they are in most places. I would assume not. They've smartened up. It was like that for years. Practice where the big kids are like, well, I'm still going to cream the kids half my size. It's fun. Don't talk about creaming kids. Mike, sorry. Come on, man. Where is your brain at this podcast? It was on football until right now and it was on...

helping other people and then TJ brought up butt plugs. Yeah.

Imagine how nervous you'd be if you're like a first liner. You're a good hockey player. You kind of hit somebody a little dirty, and you see some dude from the way bottom of the bench come out and just start eyeing you, and you're just like, I am so fucked. Well, then your team has an enforcer too, but I don't really know. I never played where you had an enforcer on your team. But, yeah, I mean, if you played a dirty hit, you'd have a hit on your back. Yeah.

For the rest of the game. Or until you got clobbered. I was really hoping you were going to be like, yeah, man. You used to get in hockey fights all the time. Not really, no. When we were kids...

They had this thing called locker boxing. So you would put like your, you would wear your jock strap and your hockey gloves, which are kind of like boxing gloves and then your helmet. And you would go in the locker room and like, you know, there's benches and whatever. And whoever you were locker boxing, you would just fucking tee off on each other and like

People would get seriously hurt, knocked out and stuff. I never saw anyone get like... Was that from beef? Or was that how you'd settle beef? It would be like sometimes two kids hate each other, so they would do that. Sometimes the tough guys. Two kids that maybe aren't super good and also kind of not cool amongst the locker room or whatever.

And then they would end up fighting each other. Just try to get some notoriety. But it would normally happen when there was tryouts going on, I always noticed. Or, you know, whatever. But I never did any of that. I bet you love that shit, though. I could totally see CJ in the corner with his...

a world star. No, you couldn't. By the time I was old enough to locker box, everyone had phones and whatever. No recording. And there was rules for no recording because you put that shit anywhere, you would actually get in trouble. I think you could get kicked out of hockey because it was like a serious thing. I never watched...

I guess like a couple of kids maybe got like kind of fucked up. Like they definitely had a concussion. There was never any serious traumas, but I remember hearing within like the hockey community where like there would be instances where someone would get really hurt, locker boxing and, and,

Like, there's definitely some Facebook pages of moms against locker boxers, which at the time sounded ridiculous, but it makes total sense now. There was a locker boxing thing at my school. Did you guys have a hockey team? No, we didn't even have a hockey team. Ryan went to a private school. Yeah, so this was a big deal, dude. Like, we had the whole... There was the basketball team was there. The football team was there. It was legit. It was pretty... It was always, like...

serious riot. Like there's an anticipation there on the other side. Oh yeah. Everyone's standing on the benches. You put the bags on the side. Like it's, we didn't do that. So they like fought for a while. Then they kind of got tangled up. Were they wearing gloves? Gloves? We didn't do it. We're just jock straps because that sounded a little too much, but we, they did, they did helmets, but they took off their uniforms, their school, private school, you know, collared shirts.

Yo, no locker boxing in uniform. I'm sorry. Anyway. Yeah, so they got tangled up, and then he kind of got thrown over the bench into the lockers, and then he got really messed up. Dude. It was a riot. I remember this one poor kid, and he was a really nice guy, but he just wasn't very good at hockey, but he wanted to be cool, or I don't know. He just wanted people to like him.

And he locker boxed this kid, and he definitely got, like, conked. And it was before the tryout. Then he had to go out on the ice, and, like, we were skating laps. And he was slow because he was, like, heavier. This was in high school. And this kid that was, like, faster, you know, we had to skate these laps. And I don't know why, but he was in his way, and he, like, pushed him.

Like, kind of, like, on his lower back. And he ended up falling forward and, like, literally putting his head into the fucking net, which is, like, posted. Like, the post. It was bad, dude. Like, he sent the net into the boards. It was this big collision. Yeah.

And like that kid, honestly, I don't think he's ever been the same. Like, I'm not going to lie. It's like, it's not funny, but it is kind of funny. It's just funny. Like, I remember at the time being like, holy shit, that was bad. Yeah. You know, I was in like the 10th grade and I was like, geez, you could end up getting cut and everything. It was all for nothing. Like, dude, regardless whether you get cut or not, it was all for nothing. But I just remember that one being a tough one. I was, I felt bad for him, but it was funny.

Because you knew what just happened. The net made such a noise. And, like, people stopped skating. Like, I look over. I'm like, this guy again? And he's like... Like, bro. CJ, like... I'm trying to figure out why Ben thinks this is so funny. It's just the situation is not funny at all. But...

CJ explained it. I know you want to laugh so hard. If I hadn't experienced a traumatic concussion, I would be laughing. And it was very funny at the time, but nowadays I can understand. I don't think that's funny. He skates up to him and goes, damn, I was rooting for you too, kid. No.

I don't even know what they did with that. But, yeah, dude. Dude, I'm, like, super stoked to hear that you guys had locker room events. Let's call them locker room events. Dude. We didn't have locker boxing, and this is only during gym class, but we had wars. Wars? Okay, so we had events. Holly had wars. Yeah, but, you know, it was basically like an event. You know, more like a dodgeball. Like, you pick teams. You have two sides. Right.

First of it, it started with Axe Wars. Oh, yep. That one got old fast. You do that like two, three times. You get yelled at. It's like, all right. But then we started having war. There's a middle area of lockers and then lockers, lockers, bench. And then we started just having wars where you just chuck shit over. It was the best. It was like the littest time I've ever had in gym.

Trash cans, basketball, soccer balls. You would throw trash cans? Yeah, like the little, like the bins. Where are the teachers? Not in the locker room. Oh, okay, yeah, yeah. And then we were throwing, yeah, garbage bins over, basketballs, volleyballs. Then, you know, you get axe cans. Got to be careful for those. Bags, big bags. And then you also got to be careful when people are throwing trash.

Locks. Heavy shit. Oh, shit. Couple locks at Chuck, bro. You can't get domed with a padlock, bro. Well, you can, but it's not going to be good. So luckily, like, no one did. And then straight up, like, this is after we've had hosted a few events.

I remember one of my buddies would always like legit make Kool-Aid. He'd like fill a pitcher up and then pour Kool-Aid in it and make Kool-Aid for the event. I don't know why, but he's like, we got Kool-Aid. We had speakers in there. We always had speakers, always had loud speakers. But then one day the principal, there was this room that was locked in there that the doors open like in half. I don't know why, but anyway, he was hiding in there.

You know, he wasn't creeping on us. I can tell you that. He wasn't doing that. But he's looking through the crack just, like, witnessing what we're doing. And I think we had one of these wars or something. And you were all naked. No. Just Mike. No. One maybe could imagine, but no. Why hasn't Mike got his clothes off? That's what the principal is probably watching. Dude, it was like he comes out, and we're just like, whoa, whoa.

Then we're like, whoa, it's the principal. What are you doing in here? And then, yeah, we kind of were like taking a back, but he's just like, what are you guys doing? Because we just got done like thrashing every possible inch of the place. How do teachers not swear at kids? Like how does he not walk in there and go, guys, what the fuck? Like there's no way I could ever work in the school system because there's no way I could ever not see a child doing something. I've been like, yo, dude, why?

what the fuck are you doing? Like, I just have such a potty mouth. I think kids are getting, like, worse nowadays, is at least what I hear. Especially with language, like, verbally. Well, that's, like, minor stuff, dude. I think whatever kids say, I'm saying the stuff they're doing, dude. Bro, these kids are straight up just throwing parties now. Back when I was, even when I was in high school, which wasn't that long ago, or five years ago now, I guess. Yeah, I didn't really go to... Dude, if there was a party and somebody was, like, even...

even the DD for it kicked out of all the sporting events. Everyone knew it spread like wildfire. Now it's like, if you're not at these parties, you're a loser. I think it goes like, how does that, you think? I think it goes in waves. I've noticed this because like the kids above me drank, then all the younger kids were like, we saw all those kids drinking. We don't want to do that. Nobody drank kids after me drank. Same with your class. Like,

your class was all like, nobody drank all this stuff till you're 21. Like I remember nobody would kids younger did probably the kids older did too. It's just like, it goes in waves. You like see what the other kids are doing. You don't want to do that. Yeah, I agree. I think that is definitely a thing that you see in schools. Like I,

We didn't have, like, the grade above us, like, crazy. They did the whole thing. And then our grade had, like, a group of 10 out of the 70 or 80 people that were there. I think it's just whatever, like, the cool kids are doing or, like, whatever they deem, like, acceptable. If they're, like, drinking is not cool, then everyone's like, oh, shit, drink it.

not cool yep but if if like the cool kids are like you're a loser if you're not drinking that's what i mean and it just goes in waves yeah just goes in waves before we get off the locker room topic yeah i was wondering if you had any stories dude i really don't i don't have like any good kind of like boxing matches or anything like that but ben just like but well i'm not allowed to talk about the golf locker room experiences but other than that nothing there either

But the one thing that I can recall from the locker room is we were in gym class one day. We go back in and Zach, our mechanic welder buddy Zach, his phone was sitting on a bench with a shit on it.

Somebody shit on his phone. On the bench, too. Dude, that's pretty funny. Yeah. Bro, in like the grossest shit I have ever seen, like to date. They had to have dipped into there in the middle of gym class and been like, yep, that's Zach's phone. I'm going to shit on it. I don't know if it was premeditated or if it was just a sicko. I don't know, man. To date.

Have not figured out whoever did it. Really? It was a mystery. That's funny, dude. Can you imagine, bro? I still, I don't know what he did with his phone or how he got it off or what happened. If it was like a little cautioned off area for a while, nobody touch it. We got to take DNA samples, but can you imagine coming in and being a piece of shit on your phone? No, no, no. What do you do? Even if I saw it on the floor or on the bench, just with nothing under it, I'd be scared.

That's pretty funny. I wonder what he did to deserve that. There's always some kind of thing that triggered that. Like, surely he just wasn't in the wrong spot at the wrong time. I mean. He was talking to someone's girl. He, I don't know, freaking took his spot on a team. Who knows? That warrants getting your phone shit on, man. I'm weird. It's funny of his phone. So what did he do? Did he wash it off?

I would have just like, what, what do you do? I would have. That's what I'm saying. I don't know what he did. I would have grabbed some paper towels. He's still pretty hot about it. He's still pretty hot about it. Like he brought it up a while ago, like six months ago. Hey, by the way, does anyone know? Seriously? Seriously. It's been years now, guys. Who shit on my phone? Everyone's right. Quiet.

Come on. We always thought it was that, you know how every friend group has like that one kid that's just a sicko in it? Uh-huh. We always thought it was him in my friend group and he still has not admitted to it. I still think it was him, but he's like the type of dude to put like peanut butter on his dick and like make our other friend's dog lick it off just to like piss him off. He's done.

done that? Yeah, I can't believe... Oh, no, that's like entry-level shit that he's done. Wait, he's done that? Yeah! I thought you were only supposed to do that with your own dog. Mike is like, oh, that's a terrible idea. That's pretty fucked up, dude. No, so, you know, he was always doing stuff like that. Small-time kids, dude.

He was always doing stuff like that. I thought I was friends with weirdos. We started pointing fingers at him immediately. Who's the only person in this friend group fucked up enough to shit on somebody's phone? Yeah, for sure. I know who you're talking about. It could definitely have been him. He's also the kid that I literally can't... I don't want to... Never mind. I don't know. I think you've said enough. Yeah.

I think you've said enough. I don't want you to exploit anymore. I do love that he never got to the bottom of it because this isn't like, you know, in high school if you were like, yeah, dude, someone stole my AirPods, never found out who it was. And then it's just like, yeah, I got my AirPods stolen one day. But that's on a completely different level. Talk about a mystery, man. That's what I'm saying. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I knew I had somebody –

That hated me that much they were willing to shit on my phone. They're like, I gotta get to the bottom of this. I got some beef to squash before something worse happens. When I was in the ninth grade, we had to share our gym locker room for like PE class.

with the senior class. So like our ninth graders were at the same time, but obviously different gym classes, but you just would end up in the locker room at the same time. And for some reason there was this like one dude with like these two other dudes, but he was like the leader of it, the senior. And they were so mean to us. Like you'd literally walk by and they go, whoo. And like, like, I'm not kidding you. It was like some bullshit. You've seen a movie though. Like you don't, you would think that no one would even do that. Like it's just a dick move.

Anyways, I was like, I've had enough of this. I've had enough of this. And I was obviously just starting to lift weights after school at that time. Obviously. Obviously. Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to say obviously. But I was going in the locker room after school because I'd change and go up to the weight room. Well, no one would ever be in there except for me and a couple of my buddies. Those guys. No, not those guys. So I brought as much axe as I could.

and there's holes in the gym locker and I sprayed literally probably 10 things of Axe on this guy's shirt. 10? 10 cams? And fucking in his shoes. He had nice gym shoes. I sprayed that shit. Like, who's paying for this? Like,

Like if I burn. Axe was cheap, dude. I mean, yeah, but it was like $3.50. The thing was when you were a kid, you'd like for some reason always, at least I would, I'd always end up with these like Axe sprays. I think they'd come in two packs and you would have so many. It's like, I don't even use Deodorant or cologne, like or whatever the hell you want to call Axe body spray.

Anyways, I brought all of them. Sprayed that shit in his shoes, on his clothes, everything through the... Like, I was sitting there for, like, a good amount of time, and I was tweaking. Was it just you or, like, you have homies with watching? I think it was just me. It was actually just me. I didn't want to miss... You really hated this guy.

Yeah, I did this on my own. Premeditated, bro. But I sprayed in there. I'm like, I was kind of sweating because I was like, what if someone comes in, you know? And then like I was listening for the door. Luckily in those locker rooms, there's like such a long hallway because obviously they don't want you to like see around the corner or whatever. So I'm just, anyways. Next day, gym class. This dude's reeked. It was so funny. I just stayed quiet to myself. Just like.

And that's one of those ones that you do and just never, no one should ever know. But I felt a lot better about it. I felt like I got squared up at least somewhat. Did he ever say anything about it or did you ever hear anything? Well, no, he just was like, I hope he's watching this right now being like, man, you know what's funny though is that guy, I've actually ran into him like frequently now. Not frequently, he's moved away but he's sometimes in the area and I will see him but he's way smaller than me now. So like, I'm like,

Cause you started, cause you started working out in ninth grade, bro. No, but I mean like shorter too, like way shorter. Like, I mean, what the hell would this guy do to me? And he's like skinny. He's got like a ponytail. He just kind of looks like a, I don't know, like a granola bar, you know, a granola more physically than his traits. Yeah. The way to Colorado, I think, but it didn't become an actual granola bar. Yeah. So that's, I,

I didn't shit on his clothes or try to shit through the little holes in the locker, but I sprayed Axe all over it. Can you imagine how you could get on top of the locker? Even Ken walks in, CJ, and drops like this, dropping a locker. Well, there's no holes on the top. No, that's how you have to waffle grade it. Well, I was just saying, it's a waffle stomp, but he's just doing it cheeks up to the locker. I'm not sure if I had my friends in there with me or not. I think it was just me. I don't think I risked telling anyone.

I'm sorry. I'm just refining. You know, I feel bad. It's one of those things that you just have to carry out. You got to stay quiet about it, yeah. On yourself there. I love that we have all these things that we promised ourselves we will never tell anyone, not even a single soul. Then we get this podcast and we're like, all right, open book with some fucked up shit we've done. Let's tell the world. And I love it too because it's like in our heads, we're like, yeah, as long as we don't say names, we can tell whatever we want. But it's like...

It comes out. Yeah, no. People listening to this when we say stories like this sometimes go, I mean, talk about me. All of a sudden you got people texting me or you, hey, that story you said on the podcast the other day, that wasn't about me, was it? No, no, of course not.

I guess that's you can just say no. No. Unless it's uber specific. Well, on the last one, I just name dropped my friend, Jace, when I was just shit talking to him and he snaps me right, he listens to the pod right away. He's like, bro,

what the fuck? Yeah, what the fuck? He did come out on me. Honestly, I went and I was like, do I keep this? No, he was like, no, that was funny. That was funny. Yeah, Jace is a good kid. That's good. Yeah, speaking of freaking Jace, I just love freaking him and his buddy went to the Nelk Boys and delivered them an ATM. Yeah, it was like, it was just interesting because he's always stoked what we're doing when he comes here. He's like, yeah, and he loves the Nelk Boys. He loves us. And then next thing you know, like he's,

Like, he's with the Knuckles? It was just funny. Like, because he's always like, that's dope. You guys got to hang out with him one day. Dude, speaking about celebrities, segueing in, this weekend, we're actually going to go meet Steve-O. Mm.

Yeah, so on Sunday we go to a show. One of our buddies that kind of gets us brand deals. He lined it up because I guess he does brand deals for Steve-O and hit him up. We got VIP tickets to go to Steve-O's show. He's got like a comedy show he does. And then I guess we get to meet him. Well, we can either meet him before or after. But what we need to do, and I don't know if we'll do this, but I would love to come up with some kind of thing we could do when we meet him and

that, like, he would be down to do, like, something that comes to my head first. So he's got hot sauce. He's got his own branded hot sauce, Steve-O's hot sauce, very hot. If we go on there and we say, like, dude, let's do a chug-off, like, hot sauce versus hot sauce, like, who can drink your hot sauce faster? And I know Steve-O will be so down because it's just promo for his hot sauce and he's crazy and, like, it...

It's worth it, probably. Or do you think that he's like, oh, man. Every single time somebody meets you. Yeah, that is possible, too. But also, I'm pretty sure Steve will do it and him did a chug off of his hot sauce. Or they might have put it up their asses. I can't remember. Yeah, he butt chugged it. Yeah.

So maybe that's just like little kid shit compared to what he's about. So we have to keep on it. I think now that Mike's kind of like the stunt man, you guys could do like bottle for bottle in the eye. Yeah, yeah. I'm just like picturing like these aren't our ideas. Bottle for bottle. Like each one gets through one. All right. Do another one.

Yeah, we're on like 10. If he was like, no, it actually really fucks me up. You know, I don't want to do that. Yeah, I understand. But if it didn't, and I'd actually, I think all the viewers would love to see you or one of us do it. I like that idea a lot. Maybe just in front of him? That'd be kind of cool. If he was down to do it, though. And then he goes, hey, you know what, dude? You're pretty cool. You want to come be on Jackass 5? Yeah.

Does that say that to you? I think I'd have to be like, no. I want to, but logistically speaking, that makes no sense for me to do. But I imagine a bunch of people are like, well, yeah, I'm sure you'd do anything crazy. Just...

ask if you could kick him in the balls and then have him kick you back. And I was like, you know, no. CJ's on Jackass 5 and they ask him, all right, man, so you do all these crazy dirt bike stunts. And CJ's like, no, not really. And they're like, not listening at all. All right, so we're thinking we're going to have you jump

Off of an FMX ramp, 75 feet into a cactus. You do it, it goes terrible, as in goes perfect for them. They cut it. Fuck yeah. That's what happens, I guess. They're pretty strict on the cuts. You guys should watch the... 4.5. Yeah, that's actually... I enjoyed it more than the other movies. I think I did too. Because in the previous 2.5, 3.5, basically what they do is they fill...

a whole separate movie that doesn't, yeah, that doesn't go to theaters, but with stunts or bits that didn't make the main movie, because obviously they're just like us. They film a bunch of stuff and whatever's the best kind of goes and whatever it's not doesn't, but there's a lot of stuff that's like, yeah, it's still good, but not worth the main thing. Anyways, in three or in 4.5,

They did more of like a behind the scenes type of thing. It's like a documentary. And it was, it was really interesting to watch. It's on Netflix. You guys should watch it if you haven't already. I think it was number one for a little bit, but very entertaining, especially as like, like a creator or somebody who's trying to make videos. It doesn't even matter if you're trying to make them for YouTube or trying to make a documentary or trying to do whatever.

Like, it's... Watching stuff like that really helps you kind of figure out how people make stuff that ends up being as great as, obviously, Jackass has been. I was surprised, actually, because in the last podcast, at the very end, we gave, like, a little bit of, like, advice on just...

It wasn't even really aimed at people trying to make videos, but I saw a lot of comments of like, I've been trying to make YouTube videos for years and I've been thinking about it and you guys are so right. I just need to get out and do it. But,

Seriously, just studying other pieces of work will help you figure out how to create your own almost. If you can just take notes from that, then you'll already do better. You don't need to achieve what they're achieving. Don't copy exactly. Just figure out how they do it. Watch the cut. Everything like that.

But, yeah, dude, I'm just thinking back on if Steve will ask you to join, which obviously he wouldn't. I think they're done making jackass. I hate to say it. They'll make something else, though. But I just remember, I forget which one of the guys it is, but he says in, like, one of his cut interviews, it's just so physically, like, exhausting, painful. I don't know what word to use. He's just like, it's just terrifying the whole time.

movie is just physically terrifying. I think it's like PTSD because it's just like... It's like kind of being around the shop when we're filming. You never know what's going to happen. But way worse. I would say like about 20 times worse because they will just throw a cactus on you when you're sleeping and not throw water on you. Instead of an Orbeez gun around the corner, it's like a pellet gun. Yeah. It's like a freaking...

that they use for crowd control. Yes, there you go. So there's the little pranks like that that aren't little, and then there's also the other stunts that they do that...

It's those ones that no one's ever done in the history of the world. This is because it's so stupid or so whatever. And then they do it and like something kind of like bad happens that you either that you might see coming or don't see coming. And then they, you know, it's like, all right, who should we do it? Should we have poopies, Steve-O and Johnny do it? And then they do it and then one of them gets really messed up or whatever. And it's just like, ah, this is one of the 50 stunts they did.

And it might not even be the coolest one. And it really like injured them somehow. That's what I just hate to see. No, I mean, it's not fun ever watching anyone get hurt. Maybe in Jackass though. Yeah, but like seriously hurt. Yeah. Once you grow up, at least have maybe been hurt once or twice, you're kind of like, that's not good. You know? Yeah. It's not fun to watch. It sets a person back. Exactly. That's the thing. Are you guys afraid of getting hurt?

Like, do you consciously think of that? Yeah. Now more than ever, which I never used to be, but lately, dude, it's just, it's like a block less, but still all the time. Like I know for, I don't know. I'm, I'm like scared to even get the wind knocked out of me.

I'm even like, if I can just avoid even like slamming any part of my body to the pavement or the ground or the gravel or the grass, I'm good. Obviously, that's how everyone's thought process is, but I don't know. Yeah, I don't know why. Like, I never used to have like anxiety about anything. And I've just like started tweaking about certain shit.

And I just get, like, worried. I just get in my own head. Are you talking about getting hurt or just in general? Just getting hurt and just, like, in general, I guess. I've noticed that in general you are much more, I don't know, like, nervous or, like, paranoid about certain things. Like the thing that just came up today that they're coming to, you know, look over. You're like, dude, what do you think? Like, do we think we got to – I don't know if we can even talk about it. Yeah, no, you're all worried about it. And I'm like –

It's funny because I'm kind of supposed to be the high, strong, paranoid dude. I'm like, dude, it's fine. We already got this thing we're going to say. It's fine. Yeah, I don't know. I guess I just like...

don't want anything messing with like the flow of i agree with that and like keeping the momentum going i agree i because i just like i think back to when everything we went through with like the jake lawsuit like yeah and like i just think of like how mentally taxing that was on all of us i know everyone that comments like when is jake gonna come out we're trying to get him on he's in a he he's

predicament right now. He's working on it. Yeah, we're working on it. He's working on it. It's basically when he can talk, then he'll come on. Anyway, that's side matter. But I just think back to that and just like how mentally taxing it was and everything. I'm just like, I think that created the anxiety for me. I'd agree with that. Well, it's just like, yeah, no, 100%. You don't want to disturb the flow. It seems like things are just finally kind of starting to roll.

I also think it's getting older. The older you get, you just think about consequences more. We talked about this earlier. When you're a kid, you just don't think about the consequences. To be fair, though, I don't want any of you guys to get hurt either. Totally. A lot of people think if you guys get hurt, it's obviously not physically hurting me, but it hurts me because...

I don't want to see you hurt, but also everyone carries a little piece of, or not a little, but a piece of work around here. And if that person is unable to carry that, now we're in a predicament of how do we make this work for the meanwhile while they recover? And it's just not good, you know? It's not good. Yeah. The main thing, I guess, where I think of it right now is like, what...

is worth it for a long-term gain. Because it's like short-term, you can have short-term wins like all day, you know, just like doing something that's like risk to reward for short-term. But it's like, dude, long-term, man. Exactly. Is any of that like really worth it? Where it's just like takes like 20 more minutes of being creative to just like completely...

Think of something rerouted around it where it's just like getting a little lazy and then something bad happens. Like, I don't know. It's just like things like that risk. Cause like, I want to be doing this for obviously a very long time. Yeah, I agree. And it's just like, there's a lot more getting lazy with it and just trying to get those quick short term ways. It's just like not as worth it to me. And I, I think that's where, uh,

We end up getting these comments from other people like, oh, I would have just sent it. Like, dude, yeah, if I was in the seventh grade and I was just dicking around like I was, I would have probably said the same thing. Like, I got people watching. Like, I'll do anything, but...

You got to kind of think wisely once you're in the spot. Yeah. You know? Yeah. And also, I know that if we do something crazy, well, you got to one-up that and you got to keep it going. And it's just like, I don't know. It just builds into very quickly could get into something that none of us wanted or none of us wanted.

Which that's why I'm happy. Like we're all on the same page and we've been on the same page about that. That we never wanted to go that. That we never wanted to go to the stunt route. And so the cool thing is when we, like when I send it like today, like that was a huge day for me. And everyone that watches a video will probably be like sick. That was huge. And then that like is kind of it. It's never like,

I wonder what Mike is going to do next week. Like, I'm stoked that it's not like that. And it's not like, all right, well, when's he going to... Yeah, like... At the same time, like, I wouldn't even coin you hitting those jumps on the razor as stunts because those are properly built jumps made for you. Like, they've been...

calculated on the trajectory, whatever. There's still a lot of things that can go wrong, and they're very risky, but it wasn't like a stunt where... It wasn't like swinging around on that shitter. Even that, though. It's when there's unknown factors. Those straps hold like 40,000 pounds. That's what I think it is. Exactly. It's when there's unknown factors. They weren't going to break. Like when we have a stunt, whatever you want to call it, when there's unknown factors, that's when we're like...

is this worth it? Jumping the razor today, there wasn't unknown factors. There was either case it or land it or land sketchy or whatever. But yeah, like when there's unknown factors to whatever we're doing, we're just like, is this worth it?

We reevaluate, and the cool thing about what Ben said is if you're creative, you can think of a creative alternative to the idea you have, and it could do just as well, if not better, than any crazy stunt you could do. Yeah. Well, I mean, that's what Greg Godfrey said when we interviewed him about Nitro Circus. I said...

Were you ever worried about taking it to such an extreme you could never top it? And if you did, somebody could get hurt or die or paralyzed or something like that. And he was like, yeah, that was always a concern. And that's when I started taking more creative filming into it where we'd have a jumper over here. And it was more cinematic versus just reckless stunts. Mm-hmm.

I don't know if anyone really tunes in to... Like, the stunts are, like, face value. It's, like, almost supplemental, though, in the video. I feel like it's more so just... I like that word. I like that description of it. It's supplemental. Face value. And face value. It's like, you get what you get. But realistically, it's not really the show. If you want to see big stunts...

Like, you can go anywhere. Yeah. Like, obviously, it's like X Games, YouTube, Instagram. If you want to see, you can see the biggest, longest dirt bike jump you've ever seen among every other action sports ever. But if you want to see Ken terrified off his ass in the back of a Razor, you tune on into C-Boys TV and watch us, you know? The beauty of, like, having our personality is a part of it, which has been a huge goal of ours for, like, forever, you know? Just, like, having you guys get to know us and then going, you guys are a cool group.

Comradery. You guys are all right. I never even genuinely looked up the definition of camaraderie, but everyone always says that. Group camaraderie. That's the right word. We have that. That's something you either have or you don't, though. That's one thing, you know, you can't really force. Kind of off topic here, but I want to get your guys' take on this. So I was in the excavator the other day. In these excavators, they have these weird little things called radios. Who would have thought? Started listening to it. Bro, radios.

mind blown at how bad these radio shows are oh the show who's paying for that dude like okay so i say that because who's paying myself like probably 98 of the people people listening right now i don't listen to the radio you plug your phone and you listen to whatever song you want you're listening to this podcast right now yeah ever yeah sorry to shit on radio right now shit on

radio dude well it sucks there's some good radio shows what are they even trying to do with it though j thomas i don't want to shit okay yeah but it's true he actually has like isn't he basically just a live podcast right right is he am or fm am okay am is different if you're successful on am go for it but fm radio sucks all right okay so i'm listening to this radio show bro and i i legit had to stop and turn it up because i couldn't believe what i was hearing

There's these two guys, probably 55 years old. They sound kind of like biker type dudes. It was like a punk rock channel, right? Hey, they're talking like this. Hey, what's up, fuckers? All right. Like swearing and everything. Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, I know. It's Lex and Terry. Yeah, must be. That's who it is. It used to be QNAP. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Are they local? Yeah. No. No? National. No? Okay, national. All right. All right.

I didn't even know that. All right. Get shit on a local, but if they're national, no, no, no. This just adds to it. Okay. Being that they're national, you'll, you'll understand why in a sec. I hear them intro like, what's up fuckers. All right, here we are. Like we're back in. I'm like, turn it up. I can't even intro like this. And, uh, the,

There you go. All right. We're doing our four o'clock call in listeners. Let's hear some stories. What do you got for us? And we'll give you our advice. Oh, my gosh. We should do a segment like this. We should. And we should all talk like that. Yeah. First person calls in. Hello.

Hello, this is Susan from Yada Yada. And I need your guys' advice on something I just recently ran into. I had a couple too many drinks, a couple too many mojitos. And I might have told my husband that I hate my ring. I hate my ring. It's too small. And these guys are like, oh, how small are we talking here? And she's like, what does it? And these guys are like, what the fuck? Drink.

Drop that guy. Drop that guy. First off, you're a bitch for calling into a radio show and hating on your hit husband. They were all going back and forth. They were hating on her. They were hating on the husband. And then they were like, he needs to buy you a bigger ring. But you're a bitch for complaining about it. You've already said this. You can't take it back now because she was like, I just don't know what to do. And I was like, well, maybe don't call into a radio show and complain like on national radio. You almost got to wonder if those are real because...

So that was my question. Was it real? Because it was so outlandish. The stuff she was saying and being okay with it being on the radio about her husband and about how she hated this ring that he bought her and she was complaining like he had an $8,000 credit and he didn't even use all of it. I was like, heck. That's kind of dumb then. Okay, so that was the first one. I was just confused as to why somebody would call in

to a radio to get two random guys opinion on like their personal matters. Right. I'm very confused. I'm intrigued now listening. Second person calls in. I'm an older woman and I started dating this guy who's 18. Oh, I guess 18 years younger, but she was like, she said I'm like 40. So he was like twenties. And, um, we were hanging out the other night and, uh,

We had our clothes on, but we were like kind of getting frisky, and he came his pants. What do I do? Classic. Because now he won't text me back. Is he embarrassed? Must be. No, he got what he wanted. At this point, I'm like fully, I quit. Excavator stop. Excavator stop. And I'm listening like, this can't be real right now. That's the big leagues over there at AM Radio. Yeah.

And I'm listening and these guys are like, first off, sweet tits, you don't want to be with a guy that's coming his pants early anyways. He's not giving you what you need. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Second off, what's wrong with you out in his business like that?

They go for both. The girl has a girl. Whatever. They go for both people in the situation every time. I don't need his business like that. Well, you didn't really. So then I'm like, there's no way that this is real. Are these real conversations and real people calling in? You got to wonder. Because I used to think the same thing. I would sometimes, before I had one of those cassette players with the aux cord connected to it that you'd pop into your...

uh cassette on your car uh it did yeah i would listen to the radio on the way to school and it would be like the morning they would have stuff like that come in yeah i would always be like is this legit this does not sound legit because the person on the phone sounds almost like a they sound like like an actor and they're like very well spoken and like they always have a response

Like very quick. Yeah, they speak too well. Yeah. People aren't that good at talking for the most part. If you're not a good talker.

I want to say that if they are fake, if one was fake, I think they're all fake. Because really, it wouldn't be that hard to get someone to just call in. Like, we'll pay you $100 to call in or whatever. It's just another person at the radio station. Bullshit. That's what I'm saying. So at first, I was like, I don't know if they're fake. But yeah, if they had three calls a day.

And they were just all fake. It'd be super easy. But I do remember one that was definitely controversial being called fake. I'll tell it really fast. This one chick calls in. It was somewhere around here. I don't know if it was national or not, but she calls in and she's like, well, I have a question. Why do they put deer crossing signs on the road? I've seen this one. That was local. It was local. Now it's like a national meeting. And she's like, they put deer crossing signs on the road. Why would they put them there?

In highly trafficked areas. So deer just cross there. It makes no sense to cross a literal state highway. Right here on this curve? What a terrible place to put a deer crossing. And it's just like late. And so I like to think it's not fake so that I can laugh at it. Yeah, I know. Well, it's like most reality TV. Yeah. You know, by the time I was kind of... Once you understand. You know...

The senior, maybe getting out of high school, you start to question these shows. You're like,

this doesn't seem real. And it's, it's like very obviously almost kind of fake. And, uh, yeah, man, but it's radio and their numbers are dying. So they got to come out with some outlandish shit. And look, they got us talking about it now. Yeah. Maybe it's the big leagues. I got to admit, I listened to the radio quite a bit. Pretty much the only driving I do every day is to and from my house. And you don't connect your phone. No. Cause I drive Mike as Ranger. Oh,

And I took that from transmitter. No, it's, it's, it's still in there. I just, I don't know. The old ones in there. Yeah. It's just for like 10 minutes. So I just listened to the radio and I don't mind the radio. I listened to the classic rock station. Don't mind listening to that. Don't mind the iffy morning show. The worst part is,

is when you get caught in a 10-minute commercial break. And you can pull out of the shop, and I can go all the way to my house and not hear a single song. Why don't you just change the station? I don't know. Sometimes you just drive. You put the window down. You don't really listen to it. Now you're like, all right, I'm tuning into this song. It's just on. And I'll sometimes get home, and I go, I didn't listen to anything the whole way home. Back when I used to work at Lakeshirts, it was like 35 minutes to work. I would just...

obviously be tired in the morning just wouldn't listen to music silence just straight up wouldn't i do that yeah yeah that's when your brain is just on autopilot though you're just like and it almost makes the drive go faster when you're not concentrating on anything i kind of like no music just well especially if you're in a car that has a good exhaust like that's fun that's true went back to the high school roots and put a sub subaru uh subwoofer

I put a sub in my Subaru, and I, like, legit don't even, I was like, oh, it sounds good. Cleaned up the whole audio. I got bass now. And I, like, don't even use it because, like, the exhaust is so loud and you want to listen to it. So there is something, like, a car that has good exhaust really doesn't need a good sound system. What do you guys think about when you roll up, windows down, music blaring?

Do you think that someone looks cool in doing that, or do they look lame? What's the word? I don't think anyone... It's not lame, it's douche. Yeah. Dude, I don't think anyone rolling up anywhere with their windows down, no music, looks cool. So don't ever have your windows down. No one looks cool ever. I would never roll up somewhere with my windows down in my car, like in my Lambo. Okay, I am not understanding that. I think you can have your windows down.

No, I don't think so. Jesus, you can't have your windows down around this guy. No, no, no. Rolling up somewhere? You just look like an asshole. You were maybe driving and you had your windows down because it was a nice day. If they were already down. Do you actually do that? You put your windows down if you're driving and it's a nice day? Yeah. For what?

Fresh air, dude. Fresh air. Call me crazy, but I don't do that. If you're in town and you're not driving fast. I hate driving in town with my windows down. I hate people looking at me. When I pull up to a stoplight and you can just see out of the corner of your eye somebody's looking at you. Well, that's because you're in a bad game. It's just like most people don't drive fucking hypercars, dude. Okay, but no, no, no. In my Subaru and everything. Yeah. I just don't like people just looking at you. I think you might be just

The minority on this one with driving with your windows down. I don't think it's douchey if you drive with your windows down. I'm just going to say that. I agree.

I don't know. It just does not feel right. I was more so asking, if you have your windows down and you pull up to this restaurant and there is a bunch of people on the patio and you have your stereo done. And it's just like, no, you should not do that either. Right there, right there. Exactly. You don't look cool. That does not look cool. No matter what vehicle you're in, you don't look cool. But if you roll up and you're listening to this podcast. Cranked. Cranked, dude. Cranked.

Everyone would be like, is that dude listening to a podcast right now? Hearing us talking about shitting on somebody's phone. When we were in Miami, everyone was driving around like convertibles with their shit cranked. That's what I was going to get into was like, I have two convertibles. I don't think the Bronco is a convertible. The Bronco is basically a Jeep. I don't know what those are. But when you're, I'm saying not even doors, let's just say top down, windows obviously down.

I do like to cruise the strip playing music. Not like look at me playing music, but playing like, I don't know, like playing like a really good reggae song or something. People are like, oh, nice. You know, like it's not like you're sitting there just trying to be like, yeah.

Yeah. Look at the corner guy. It's about when you pull up, though. Like, when I pull up, I'll still leave the windows down, but I turn it down so it's not, like, blowing out. Like, everybody look at me. That's really the difference. And it is funny because I can tell when CJ arrives in his Evo in the winter because there's the distinct exhaust rumble and boom, boom, boom. Okay. I have my windows up and I'm pulling into the shop. Obviously, you're coming here. Rules are off. But.

You're the only person that pulls up blaring music every time. Dude, the Evo's got a great sub in it. Obviously, you can hear Ben's Lambo. I can hear your car coming up now. But I just really like having distinct exhaust. I put exhaust on the Bronco. Still...

We can argue whether that's cool or not. I don't even think it's that cool. Once the wheels are on and shit, it'll be cool. But it's got this note that now everybody goes, oh, that's Micah's Bronco. And I do like that when it's not like, oh, that's Jake's Mustang because it's so freaking loud. You can hear it from across the world. Dude, you and your friends aren't car guys if you can't. You can't, yeah.

Tell who's pulling up just by the sound of their car. So true. Because we've always been able to do that. I'm still trying to get used to your Bronco with the exhaust, though. You started it down in the underneath. Actually, underneath where we're sitting right now in the shop part of the thing. And I was in my office, and I perk up. I'm like, what the fuck is that? No.

And I literally, you stood there, you had it warming up for like two minutes and I was just literally waiting for you to back up to see what it was. And then it was the Bronco and I was like, man, I can't believe I missed that. I like, I can't believe I didn't figure that one out. Honestly, I felt kind of like a squid. Like Loki sounds like a V6 with an exhaust leak. Bro, I hate to say this, but I thought we got a new lawnmower. I was legit like, somebody bought a new lawnmower without telling us. Yeah.

you guys ever hear a car drive by without exhaust and you're like oh that sounds kind of cool and you look and it's like not a cool car and you just you get mad at yourself and you're just like ah why'd i look it could be depicting dude yeah sometimes you just you know yeah well that's a that's a civic right rolling pass but are you trying to trigger cj right now man oh what

a not cool car having an exhaust? They don't. Sometimes they don't choose to have an exhaust. They just rust it out and it is how it is. I mean, you can't knock a guy for that.

I can't believe you guys like rolling up to places with your windows down. Okay, your windows down? You know, you're pulling up, and it's a really nice day, and you pull in. You might even wave at someone. Yeah, you start putting your windows up, and you put it in park, and you walk in. Now that you guys say that, I might be an introvert. I think you're the only person who thinks it's douchey to pull up with your windows down.

Ben's going to start removing his window buttons in his car. He's like, you don't need those. Weight reduction. How do you feel about no doors or roof on a vehicle? He told me it was fine. I think that's different. I think that's different. But I think CJ rolling up in his Jeter with the windows down

Just like kind of making a scene. How am I making a scene? You're just driving. I don't have any music. I'm just pulling in. It's a hot day. It's only if he's making a scene is when it's douchey. If he pulled in, gave it. I don't know. I guess I would just see it. I'd just be like. Kept his shades on and then looked over at everyone. Yeah. I don't know. If I just saw that, I'd be like, why didn't that asshole just roll this window? Oh.

What the fuck is wrong with you, dude? I don't know, man. I mean, if there's a lot of people watching, I probably would just because I would hide behind my window tint. Regardless of whether I do it or not, I don't think that makes you a douchebag. I think if you have some, any kind of music blaring and you have your windows down because then it's like, listen to my music, everybody. I think it's just more of making a scene. Here's an alternative. You're pulling up to the public beach. You're going to go swimming with your homies.

Acceptable windows down pull-up. You are pulling up to the bank on a Tuesday. That's a windows up pull-up. No, you have to have your window down if you're pulling up to the bank. No, you're getting out and you're getting in. I don't even mess with that, man. I pull up to the bank and I open my door. I'm not following any of this. What if you're in the lamest car you could possibly drive?

Like a Prius. Are you a douchebag then if you're pulling up with your windows down? Yeah, I guess then it doesn't even count because the car's not even cool. How are you possibly trying to be a cool guy? Unless it has a sub and you're trying to bump. Other than that... Yeah, no music, windows down, it's a hot day. I just can't believe you guys feel the air on your skin. What's the point? That's what air conditioning is for, to keep your car cool. You know what the problem is here? We're working with a millennial. I'm not a millennial. Well, you're damn near. Whatever, even worse.

Even worse. You should probably just tell people you're a millennial if you're going to act like this. Are you saying I'm a millennial as in I'm younger than you, acting younger than you, or I'm older than you, acting old? You're just like a different breed. Which one are you saying I am? Are you saying I'm older or I'm younger? I'm being a millennial. I would say you are a misunderstood new breed of...

That thinks completely differently because you're a millennial. I don't know, man. I think a lot of people listening right now are... I don't want to say a lot, but I think there might be one or two that agree with me. There might be one or two. Okay. If you're going to do so good when we go to space... If you drive places, comment down below. If you drive with your windows down and don't have your music blaring, but you're driving with your windows down and you...

Go places. Do you guys keep your windows down on the interstate? No. No, it's way too windy. Okay, what mile per hour is it like warranted? 55 is like you're getting blown around. You're like, put this up. Anything more, yeah. Yeah, I've always wondered how smokers are just ripping down the interstates at 80. Dude, I feel like older vehicles didn't get as windblown. Yeah.

And it also could be some of those people don't have AC. I know. I like to think about that too. And I also like to think about there's been a handful of times in the life of our channel that Ben has had to drive a peanut home that he's had to have the windows down on. That now might be the only time you've ever driven with the windows down. You know, we pick up a peanut. It's in whatever town across. It put a bad taste in your mouth. Yeah, it's got no AC and you had to drive with the windows down. You're like, man, I might as well pick up smoking if I'm going to have my windows down. Yeah.

I don't know, man. Call me crazy, I guess. You're crazy. Okay, thank you. This is totally, everyone's going to make fun of me for this, but I judge people when they have their windshield wipers moving too fast. What?

It's like you're overreacting. Yes, exactly. Like it'll just be like a medium rain. You're overreacting so much. Yo, Ryan, that gives me so much anxiety rolling around with somebody who's doing that and even worse, even worse. Classic.

when they don't have it enough and it's like a safety hazard and they're like almost like damn near squinting to see I'm like dude just click it one more just click it one more and you will be amazed at what happens I can go raw no windshield wipers just let the beads just roll right back Ryan's a big Rainax guy yeah

I have that internal conflict. He's saving money. He doesn't wear out his windshield wipers. For the record, Ryan actually taught me this. Like, if you put Rain-X on your windshield and you do it right, and especially if your windshield is curved as your Lambo is or something like that, you don't need windshield wipers. For the record. You should remove your windshield wipers and your window up and down buttons. Okay.

You should. I literally do this. I don't know why. It's raining. I turn mine on like one click. Turn it back off. Nice. Got the windshield clean. Oh, got a little more rain on it. Turn it on. And then I go, why am I doing this? Why am I doing this? And then I finally click it on the number two setting. It could be like a legitimate full-blown rainstorm. And he's going, do-do-do-do-do-do-do. Just so he can control himself. And then I'm like, dude, speaking of that too, it's just like, I'm like, dude, it's super hot in here. I look down.

Air is off. And then he goes, oh, sorry. And I'm like, dude, it's sorry. It's kind of cold in here. Sorry. Turns it completely off. Yeah, that's like hopping in your car or your truck and then not putting your seatbelt on and then just rolling for 20 minutes just listening to the ding.

Old men do that all the time. It's because I don't believe in seatbelts. Yeah, but what, do they not hear that? Well, dude, I get in the truck with Rich. I pick Rich up from the bar the other night. I was bringing him home. Doesn't put his seatbelt on. And after a little bit, I go, hey, Rich, you gonna throw that seatbelt on or what? He goes, oh, yeah, sorry, man. Usually, I just wait until it just stops dinging. And I go, how long does that take? He's like, I don't know, five, ten minutes. I'm like, bro, just put it on. Yeah.

It varies per car, but I... He said it quits after five minutes, and I was like, I don't know about that, Rich. I think you just toned it out after that. What were you driving? Like, it varies per car. The truck, the Ram. Does he have a Ram? Yeah, he has a Ram. You look over at them, kind of what you said, and you go, yeah, that's just going to keep on dinging. That's just going to keep dinging. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, sorry. I'm like, you didn't hear it, did you? No. No.

I have a cool question to maybe end the podcast. What was one of your guys' favorite memories from the old shop, if you can think of anything? We haven't talked about that much at all, and we haven't talked about it in a while. One of my favorite memories is, I mean, there's so much stuff that happened, and we really grew a lot there too, but this inspirational little bit does nothing to do with the story, but one time, Ken put a bunch of yum-yum sauce in the burgers. Yeah.

And he was cooking the burgers outside the shop in the grill. And the grill was a good 10 feet away from the shop, actually, at the time. I don't know why, but it was a little closer. Okay. It was right next to the building. Okay. Never mind. Ken must have pulled it out there when I got out there. But anyway, it was right next to the building. He put a bunch of yum-yum sauce in the burgers, in the hamburger, cooked the burgers. They just fell apart because there was too much yum-yum sauce in them.

The grill was like a grease fire engulfed in flames. I'm talking like 10 to 15 feet tall. Looking at the shop and then I open the door. I'm like, Ken, what the? He goes, the shop's on fire. And I'm just like, you put too much yum yum sauce in. And it was just the funniest thing ever. And he's just like, I know. I'm not going to make that mistake again.

Again. Who puts yum yum sauce on a burger while it's on the grill? Not on it. In it. In the meat. Pack the patties. We were obsessed with yum yum sauce. That sounds even more whack. Why would we do that? Yum yum sauce is good. Experiencing. Sorry. He was experiencing. He was experimenting. But yeah, that was like of all the fires and...

We damn near burned down that tropical. So many times. I think my favorite is when we just had a stint where we would blow stuff up. Yeah. We had no garbage cans at one point because we realized if we put M80s in the garbage can upside down, it would blow it like 100 feet up in the air. In an HOA. Yeah. So we started doing that, and then we blew up that old jet ski. I have enough time in that video. Oh, God.

Like pretty much everything that was garbage that was still intact like blow it up blow it up blow it up. Yeah, and that was fun Yeah, that's we can't do that anymore on youtube because they don't let you blow stuff up Otherwise, I would still be doing it to this day The last thing we blew up was the washing machine in or the dry the oven and there was something in this slip the lawnmower slip inside video go watch it god damn it's great Holy shit

Oh my gosh! Yeah, bro! Ryan, remember when you fell off of your quad and it ghost rode across the parking lot into our neighbor's shed? Oh, dude. That was so dumb. Remember that? Yeah, I'm trying to remember it a little bit. Into Allen's? Yeah. Oh, into Allen's. Yeah, it was just like messing around. We'd been in the neighborhood a bit, but not that long. We were just starting to get solid with our neighbor. Yeah.

Was I side-wheeling? I don't even know what you were doing. I don't know how. I just remember watching it just ghost ride across the entire driveway. It just smokes the neighbor's building. So I had to replace the tin on the side of his building, and I did it. I actually did pretty good. You did, dude. But I had no idea what I was doing. I was like, I'm going to mess this up worse than it was before. It was bad. Okay, Mike. This isn't the best memory, but...

The worst memory, actually the quite opposite. What comes to mind when I think of that old shop, it was one of the last, it was like the last couple weeks that we were in there and we had this great idea to put a trampoline inside the shop. I was going to talk about this too.

and we thought it was like the best we're like man why didn't we do this like the second we moved in bouncing off the walls ceilings are not that high jumping up hanging off of the garage door the brackets on the top dropping back down my girlfriend greta comes over and we're jumping and and she was like watch this does a backflip lands a little nose heavy nose heavy and

Rockets into the side of the trampoline. Outer ring has no padding on it. Breaks her nose. Gushing blood. So bad. Everywhere. Everywhere. Oh, man. It's like traumatizing. So traumatizing.

And, yeah, ended up, like, completely destroying her nose. Had to get, like, surgery on it and got blood, like, all over. Yeah, I was going to say, don't leave out, like, the blood and the pain and all that was pretty traumatizing. But the facial reconstruction surgery she had to have afterwards was probably the worst part. And I just remember...

Her parents being like, what happened? And she was like, I... I went to the shop. Ben punched me. I fell on a trampoline. Trampoline? There's still snow on the ground. Ben and the Seaboys put a trampoline in their shop.

They had to have been like, are you kidding me? And that was the tough part, too, because that could have happened on a trampoline planted anywhere. Anywhere, right. Indoors or outdoors. Well, there's no net on it. But, yeah, I remember we got really antsy. Mark, shout out Mark, gave us a hot tub. That was sick. We're like, why not? Put it in the shop. Yeah, that's when we took the trampoline out. We were like, we got all this room now. What should we do with it? Let's put a hot tub in here. That was great. That was great, actually. I love the hot tub. We hung a TV above the hot tub, bro. Yeah.

If I have this clip, also, you guys just need to see this because it's beautiful. Ken does a beautiful job on customer service, and if you get an email from him,

He might have answered that anywhere. He might have answered that sitting in the razor, sitting in his bedroom, literally sitting in the excavator, you know, like, yeah, from his phone in Minneapolis. Like he answers emails anywhere and he was sitting in the empty hot tub, bro, doing work on his computer. Like what's going on right now? Man, there's so many freaking things that come to mind of like instances that happened.

at that shop. Like, at one time, we played that one game where you have to take a shot or whatever every, how many minutes? Is it every minute or something? No, it was a shot of beer. Power hour. Power hour or something. It's supposed to be with a real shot, but you would die. Yeah, so we were doing shots of beer, but you end up getting really, really messed up. And I fell down the stairs and landed on my face. That was bad. You got stitches. I had to go get stitches at like three in the morning. That's right. And the worst part about that is it's one that anyone hears that and they're just like,

Yeah, it's pretty hard to understand. Well, I just missed a stare. I wasn't drunk. Yeah, you weren't. Dude, there was... I was drunk. Yeah, there were so many things that we got, like, new toys that we, like, completely binge play with for the next, like, week or however long until we broke them. And I remember we got hoverboards, things that, like, they twist and then you lean forward and they, you know, like a mini Segway. Cody...

Oh, yeah. Ripping the hoverboard. He's like, check this out. He's in like little egg mode, like doing a donut. Whoa, whoa. Falls backwards, hits his head on the hammer slogging table. Just a giant log. Eight stitches, ten stitches. No, bro. Oh, no. He didn't get stitches. Shut up. Super glue. That's right. Hit his head on the back and...

Jake and I go, oh, oh, oh, you cracked your head open. And then he's just like, we can't go to the hospital. I'm like, yeah, you're right, dude. We could superglue it. I don't know whose idea was to superglue it. Honestly, not mine, but it worked. We superglued Cody's freaking head together. Man, yeah, there was a lot of, like, just, like, weird little injuries that happened there. And, dude, I just think back to, like, the amount of stuff that

the amount of videos that we filmed all while we're in this HOA using just like this public parking lot. We got just shops everywhere, but everyone loved us because we were the only people that were there and we like kind of kept an eye on everything. And we kept it up. We graded the parking lot.

granted we messed up like every other day but we would grade it we'd fix it up and they'd be like oh nice it's all taken care of by friday meanwhile like on thursday afternoon there's like two foot deep ruts in there because we did donuts with jake's raptor and spraying the other buildings with rocks yeah exactly and then it trans transitioned to us being responsible and then

just coming in and being like, this is where you guys do donuts then? Oh, yeah. And then we'll just do that. Obviously, we've talked about that before. So we'd clean up their mess too. What about the number of freaking visitors we've had at the new shop or current shop lately? It's been a lot. It's been weird, very weird occurrences. I'm uncomfortable. I'm like, what is going on right now? And they're just standing in...

In the shop or in the parking lot. I'm just trying to do my job. It just seems like you're really weird, though, when you come over here uninvited. It's not, and I don't mean in a mean way if you have came over here, but it just seems like out of all of my interactions, it's always the oddest people that show up, which makes complete sense because you really just shouldn't show up to someone's house or whatever.

private office basically and it's always very strange it's almost it's comical when they leave but you're kind of just like why here when they're here and but when they leave we're always just like what just happened yeah like the other day this guy and chick and couple kids show up i walk out late

Not knowing what's going on. Not knowing what's going on. I came out with him. And I was trying to meet the guys over at the track to go and film, right? Yeah, walk out, and they're talking to these guys, and they seem like you guys were kind of chopping it up, and they were like, let's get a picture. We take this picture, and this guy, the dad, is standing next to me on the end and takes the picture. The kids were very hesitant, though. They were like, let's get a picture. They didn't really want this picture. It's like these kids are like, I don't know.

Yeah. Who are these guys? And you're like, okay, sure, whatever. Just get this picture. So we take this picture and the dad is on the end, right next to me and then no one else. Kids are in the middle. After we take it, the guy goes, whispers in my ear, I stood on the end so I can cut myself out. I'm like, okay. Okay. All right. Why do we take this picture? The kids didn't want it. Well, that was one of those. So they're walking away then and they're like, we're going to go look at the Lambo. And I'm like,

Okay. All right. Which I think is in the shot. They walk away. And we're over here. We're not even there. They walk away, and I go, who knows these guys? Like, they just acted like, all right, we're going to go and check that out. And, you know, we're acting like somebody knew them. All of us on the same page. Like, nobody knows them. What the fuck just happened? We look over. They're walking into our shop. Walking into our shop. And we're like, what the...

What is going on right now? Why did that guy ask for a picture and then say he was going to cut himself out of it then? Like so many different weird things. And then Ken is, of course, the last one in the shop. So, you know, he was trying to get out of there. What did he say? He said something to you about like some adult party? He's showing me pictures of his bike and his scooter and his this and that and this and that and...

I don't know. He was clearly the fan because his kids were skittish and not genuinely interested in us, but he was. And he's like, dude, this pontoon, check it out. And it was a super nice pontoon. But, I mean, we get to go out on the boat all the time, you know, whatever. And he's just like, it's the adult pontoon, though. You guys are welcome anytime. We were out there until 4.30 last night.

Sounds legit, man. Sounds super fun. That homie had to still been drunk because there was something off. Oh, yeah, yeah. He's like, yep, woke up at 6 today for the kids. And I was like, you got to do that. How are you alive right now? I mean, I'm genuinely wondering that. It's just tough because the normal people that we love meet, when we meet, like meeting all the people that watch and support. So I don't want to say that. But it's like the normal people that would be like our homies and we could have like a

genuine conversation with and like we love meeting those aren't the people that show up those are the people that are like yeah maybe i shouldn't pass these no trespassing signs please do not come onto our property because you watch our videos and you feel like you know us right

Just don't. Those aren't the people that come. It's the ones that just ignore. Oh, that no trespassing sign? That's not for me. Smile, you're on camera. Well, they probably want to film with me or something. Like, dude, I'd love to meet Joe Rogan, but I'm not going to just go show up at his house. Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I think some people kind of forget that. And we really do love meeting everybody just under the right circumstances. There's many times when I've heard, hello, anybody home? And I'm literally taking a shit. I literally have to go, ah, this is five minutes too short. And I have to get up and I walk in. Someone's just standing in the truck. Cool place. My kids are in the car. Can they come in? And half the time I think the kids know.

The kids know they're not supposed to. And they're like, I've had like, you know, 14 year old kids and be like, I'm sorry. I know we're not supposed to come here, but my dad said it'd be fine. And I think it's the dads are like, what do you mean? This is maybe one of the more legendary drop buys that we've ever had. This is in 2019. So keep in mind, we did not own the shop. This was my dad's second home. He,

We did all of his work here. This is a Friday, Saturday night. Prior to this, he did mention, yeah, I wouldn't mind if you guys did some donuts there and stuff. I wouldn't mind that. And boy, should he not have said that. So we, whatever this guy stops by, wants to do a burnout. I'm like, yeah, you can do a burnout. He's got brand new tires. He did have brand new tires. So we weren't thinking he was going to toast them. And it was a truck. Were we wrong?

Dude, this is insane. It's going one wheel. It gets two wheels going. I walked one where you're like, okay. Right here. I was like, stop. Yeah, he really doesn't stop. Trying to pretend like you like it. I have to basically this first one. I'm like, whoa, dude. He's sending it. And then I'm like, oh, these marks are on there.

He's still going. Dude, I mean, that's what I'm saying. He's treating it like the Hoonigan burnout yard. I was like, oh, fuck. All I'm thinking during this is I am so screwed. How am I going to explain this? This is a fucking amazing burnout. He's still going. And he goes for another 30 seconds after this video ends. Keep going, keep going.

Dude, my favorite thing, though, is how sturdy and just dark those marks were. They still are, dude. They're still there. They finally, this winter, have gone away. They're still going, dude.

Yo, this is insane. And then the video ends. That was a full minute Snapchat. You put the video down, I thought, because you were like, he's still going because I'm videoing. No. And he just freaking... Maxed it out. The funniest thing was that dude was all talking up his Chevy about how it was like, you know, deleted and shit. The thing had power. I was like, if Argera Max could have done that, I would have been stoked, but...

Yeah, that was a wild time. We always get nervous when we run into him because he's a wild card. At this point, though, I'd love for him to just come back and absolutely toast him. Now that it's ours, we can't. And then Randy shows back up the next day, 6 a.m., there to pick up some work supplies.

Can you imagine? Dude, I was literally sick to my stomach. I was sick. I went to Menards and I bought like goo off and concrete, cleaned it, all this stuff. Sat out there for like quite a while. Didn't work. And pressure washed. At all. Pressure washer right on the concrete.

And I got like this much gone. And I just went, I'm screwed. There's no way I can do anything to make this go away. I could pressure wash all day. My dad would come here at 6 a.m. and I'd only have half of it gone. And they stayed forever. And you can clearly tell which shop is ours from Google Maps because of the freaking giant burnout pad. Yeah, that was a big part of it. A bunch of people just segwaying back into people that came to our shop. A lot of people...

found our shop because of those burnout marks. They'd look on Google Maps and they would see those burnout marks and zoom in a little bit and go, yep, that's the Seaboy shop. I mean, look at that. I just did burnouts with my car and they are not half as dark as that. No. It was a doozy. That is just downright impressive. We had to have ordered new tires right after that. We got to do that again. I mean, let's have Buddy do it again, but...

Well, dude, I want to get like a drift car, like a 350Z or something like that and turn our parking lot into like a little drift course. That would be cool. But other than that, I don't really know where to drive it. But I guess most people that have drift cars probably don't have like their own personal drift tracks. That's true. I mean, I just think that'd be so sweet. I agree. I definitely want to get a drift car. I think it'd be sick if we made like...

a lot more money and we like made a giant drift track around on the new property like around the dirt bike track how sick would that be we'd need a lot of asphalt or you know concrete but i'm so down that would be so sick you thought this track cost a lot of money just right down a quarter mile a quarter mile that would be sick dude it would be sweet though to uh

you know section i mean maybe we don't want to do this but it's just a thought we section off a little bit of uh that property we put up another shed for ourselves and we use that as maybe even just cold storage right away put our stuff that we can't we have so much stuff nowadays like

that is just sitting out in front of the shop. We could park it over there. And then on top of that, we could put up another longer strip of different little, you know, basically smaller, I don't know what you want to call them, units for people that come to the lake only in the summer and they can store their boat there or whatever. You know, they don't have storage. Make a little bit of money. You can charge rent.

Yeah, definitely a good long-term play right there. But for the short term, racetrack. All right. Let's do a NASCAR track then. Stadium and all. Our neighbors are going to be like, oh, my God. Here come the bleachers. It's over. Fuck.

Oh, they got lights too? They plan on doing this shit at night? And a PA system. It's like, welcome back to C-Boys TV racetrack. Who could they be talking to? No one's there right now. We're just doing it for fun. Dude, that'd be legit. Yeah, also we're trying to get like a, what is it, an archway to the entrance of it. We're trying to get an archway made. So if you're listening to this and know anything about that, reach out to us and we want to get an archway made. Like it's like, it's a big ranch. We're calling it.

Wide open ranch. Is that the name that we decided on? I can't think of a cooler one. I love it. I love it. I don't know. Every time I hear ranch, I just think of Ram Ranch. Ram Ranch! Wide open ranch! It's not much of a ranch, dude. What are we going to start farming and putting some goats on it? I think that's the joke. Yeah, I think it is the joke, too. What if we just name it? Clearly not a ranch. Okay. I think if we do go with the ranch...

Yeah. Wide open ranch. Yeah, that is good. If anybody made it this long through our bullshit, think of a name for our new ranch or not. This might be one of our longer ones. So it was good. It was good, dude. Drop a like and watch all the ads on this podcast so we can one day afford a racetrack ranch. I was going to say a NASCAR stadium. I mean, honestly, you guys have been doing an awesome job. Thank you. Everyone keeps coming back. But if we can just keep the comments and the likes and everything going, we'll be happy.

I think we can keep growing this and it'll be cool to see what happens with it. So, yeah. And yeah, I mean, you guys are here listening still. So numerous drop Thursday. It's my birthday too. So don't forget. Okay. All right. Happy birthday, Mike.
