Was it weird sitting out? Yeah, it was. It was a little strange. It was pretty easy, though. I was just laid back. Yeah, it was a little stressful running the show. Was it? Well, kind of.
You got a lot riding on it. Not that you guys didn't help, but... I helped. You got to be prepared. You got to be prepared. That's why I got these notes and whatnot for it. We got a big week ahead of us. Brand new merch drop dropping tomorrow. We're wearing a lot of it right now. We're wearing a lot of it. Probably a personal favorite. We're pretty stoked on the no-can-do. If you can see that, pick that up right there. I think that's the funniest thing is I can make the sickest shit, and that's still my favorite. Dude, it's something about...
logos that are like ripoff logos like plenty of big brands do it it's because it's recognizable and it's like i don't know it's just cool and there's just something about ken and it's something about ken is the best seller of all merchandise uh ever actually in c boys tv history which is amazing i'm not surprised by that he's sitting back there sucking on his little what do you call that thing a vape stick i don't know i don't smoke dude nobody jewels anymore
Have you guys noticed that? I think jewels aren't a thing, are they? Can you still buy them? It's because they took the flavors. Jewels got everyone addicted. It was like the little USB-looking stick, right? I'm pretty sure they went out, dude. I guess I don't know, but I think now they have new things. Everyone's sucking on the fat ones now. Yeah, now it's like a circle one. I think because jewels got...
They got banned. Like, the good flavors got banned. And then I think they got expensive. And then all these other nicotine brands came in. They were like, well, Juul did the dirty work. Everyone's already addicted. So we're going to just sell ours for cheaper and their shittier product. That doesn't sound far off. Let's ask someone who actually uses the product. Ken, can you still purchase a Juul? What do you mean you don't know? Are you just playing dumb or you actually don't know?
Ken says no idea. So basically, they are pretty obsolete. I think they are. I think they literally went out of business. They probably are the new product. They just rebranded to a different little stick for you to suck on. Because all the older generation was like, oh, you shouldn't be juuling. So they were like, oh, fuck, we got a bad rap. Yeah, juul really took the fall for all vapes. Because now everybody else's comes up. What's the team? Ken, what the fuck was that? Shut up.
What was that? I thought that was Ken sucking on his vape back there. I did too. You got a turbocharged one. Oh my gosh, dude. That's where my brain went too. Just...
Dude, it started with the big old rigs, the big vapes, the things that were actual vapes. No, you want to know what it really started with? They were called e-cigarettes. E-cigarettes. And when we were in high school, we would pool our money together and buy one, and it'd be like fucking 20 bucks. But it would have like 500 hits on it. It was just a little stick. You couldn't refill it. You couldn't whatever. And you'd just pass that thing around and probably have it...
You know, blown out by the end of the night. That's what it really started with. And then they started doing the full rig. The rig. And then it just got so excessive with it. I remember... Now they went back. They technically went back to e-cigs. Remember how coated Ken's windows used to be in his Subaru? Do you remember the college house? The college house. The college house. You could barely look out the windows because Ken and Jake and Justin would just be passing this big rig back that would blow like...
massive clouds. I think it's so lame, the vaping. You do not look cool vaping. No, you don't look cool. And now you're just addicted. And it's like, congratulations, you're addicted to nicotine. And I guarantee you, I'm sure stuff has already came out now, but I remember even back in high school, I was like,
Everyone be like, oh, it's just water vapor or whatever. It's just water vapor. I'm like, yeah, right. Like I guarantee you in five, 10 years, it's going to come out and it's like, oh, this product is super bad for you. Maybe even worse than cigarettes. I mean, if it's doing that to windows, exactly. Yeah. It's just disgusting. But anyways, don't smoke. Don't use those things. If you do, you should consider stopping. Yeah. That's my advice. But also you can do whatever you want with your life. Or best thing that ever happened to me.
I did this with the Juul once, too, but I ripped the big old vape so hard one time that I was buzzing out of my mind. Threw up. Threw up. Threw up a bunch, and I was like, fuck this. Haven't done it since. So if you're trying to quit, just literally buzz your brains out until you throw up, and you'll be like, yeah, I'm over that. I did it with chewing, too. Yeah. Anyway. That was a nice segue.
Off of the shirt that is a play on say no to drugs. That's what this can do shirt, no can do shirt is. Yeah, do they still do dare in high school? I don't know if they even do that. I'd imagine. You guys have seen that. Yeah, how's that working though? Yeah. I've never understood that. What is the point of dare in high school? Like dare to say no? Yeah, I'm sure it helps with some kids. Does it though?
Some kids. I thought it just kind of educated you on how sick drugs were. Oh, maybe that. I mean, I wasn't really. Like gross or like sick? Like that's sick. How cool. They came in and they're like, yeah, you'll see things. I don't know. I'm not into it. Isn't that the point of drugs? Exactly. But then as a kid, you're like, damn. I don't know. I was never into drugs, but. Anyways. Anyways. Back on track. Back on track. Merch drop this Thursday.
Thursday, what is that, the 26th of August. Be ready for that. It's probably going to hopefully go quick. I don't know if you guys saw, but that KLX that we got, we will be giving away over the weekend. So we've done that a few times now, and it's going really good. We love giving pit bikes away. It's fun doing the short little span, just a weekend-long giveaway, because I feel like literally everyone and their brother –
is doing giveaways nowadays. We, we were kind of, we were kind of the first people to be doing it though. You know, one of them, I'd say diesel brothers was doing it before us. And,
And that was it. I remember you coming up to me with the idea of doing it. And I was like, man, I don't know. It just seems... You think we could do that? And it ended up working. Yeah, we were like, hopefully we can make the money back. Just make it back. That's all we were hoping for. Yeah. Because we thought it would be cool to do a giveaway. I hate to shit on companies that are doing it because obviously they work.
but it's like, dude, when, when I'm scrolling Facebook, Facebook is the worst. It's because everyone's paying for paid advertisements on Facebook. Right. And it's like, dude, people are giving away like their random as shit, like boats. And it's like, they needed a new boat for next year. Like, ah, might as well give away this one. Yeah. And I mean like each market definitely is tailoring like a different audience. I get that, but it's just like,
At what point is it just so saturated? It's not even cool to do it anymore. For us. And that's kind of where we got to, where it's like, you hate to sit there and plug a giveaway for like six weeks or like eight weeks even. Yeah. It's like people just get so sick of it and they see through it at this point. So for us to just run it for a weekend, you know, Thursday to Monday, it just makes way more sense for us. And.
It's like we're not selling ourselves out doing that because it's just one plug. In my personal opinion, it's like we're kind of still doing it because we've done it for so long. And it's always been like a little bonus when you buy the merch. Honestly, the merch is going to sell whether we have the giveaway running or not. It's just kind of fun to do. And that's why we do it just for the weekend. We get it done, get it over with because I don't want to keep –
hounding you guys at the end of every video oh we got this giveaway and it just gets old when you drag it out then it puts us in the same bucket as everyone else and when i go on any any social media and i see that i like get mad like it like irks me or i'm like dude this is so annoying and i don't want to be that person right you know speaking of giveaways we uh we've been doing giveaways
Uh, it through this podcast. It's a little bit different. You know, this is just minor giveaways, but we've, we forgot to announce the winner. Uh, we're giving away a sign and the latest winner is six seeds. That's his Instagram handle. Uh,
Or it could be his first name is Six, last name Seeds. I'm assuming that's just his username, though. Anyways, I kind of got some flack for picking somebody that didn't have a first or last name. I was like, bro, they sent us a nice message. They said how much our podcast makes their day better. So congratulations. You got a sign. Yeah, follow us on Instagram. Send us a nice message about the podcast. We'll probably send you a sign. Next one, we'll send you a new merch drop package. Oh, true. There we go. Yeah, for this one? Yep.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So just make sure you hit the subscribe button. Let's get to 100K on this podcast channel. And we're going to be sending out shit every podcast. But that's enough, I feel like, on the, I don't know, merchandise, all that shit. That was a hell of an introduction. We were all over the place. We just touched on like six different topics. Now that I'm editing podcasts now, I was listening and I go, fuck. It's going to suck. We got Ryan editing now. Ryan is...
He learned how to edit. He learned how to do the cuts, how to move shit, how to import stuff. And now he's falling into the role of our podcast editor. You've got one under your... Two. Two now. Two. Two under his belt.
and he's learning the ways. He's learning how to story build, how to do all that, and I'm very proud of you, Ryan. Thank you. I feel like I'm part of an elite club. There was another day you two were editing over on all the other desks, and I was like, damn, dude, look at me. I'm working. I'm doing something finally. You've always done stuff. There is something satisfying about editing because it's taking something so rut
so rough and unfine and then you cut it down to you know the finished product and it's so meticulous and when you guys are watching this you know it seems like it flows really well but behind the scenes there is a lot that goes into it right and you don't know that until you do the process of editing yeah you appreciate it so much it's an art yeah if someone like messes something up and that was maybe really important you got to just like cut it out and then figure out how to
move on from there and make it all flow. Yeah. It's like deciding, like, I guess what goes and what doesn't. Dude, there's so much to editing. We should, like, really divulge into it one of these podcasts because I'm sure a lot of people are interested by it. Yeah. And I will say, I think we have some of the best editing on YouTube. I mean, obviously, there is people above us that are just insane. I'm sure, like, in our realm. I think, like, if people saw the real rough cut of the video and then what it gets...

Should we talk about last weekend? Justin's wedding? Oh, God. We were kind of on a roll. It was so fun. The way Ryan says that, I was like, did you have a bad experience? No, it was a great experience. It was so fun. Honestly, Ryan...
I thought that it went a lot better than expected when you say, like, oh, God. Yeah, no, it was pretty – we were semi-controlled. Dude, when you get all of us together –
We are like a force to be reckoned with. Anywhere we went, we were by far having the most fun out of anybody. Yeah. Making a scene. Making a scene. Just laughing. Non-stop laughter. And whenever you all burst out in laughter, everyone's like, what are they doing? So for a little context to the listener, our best friend Justin got married last weekend and all of the boys, including Jake, we were his best men.
So we were basically just hanging out. It was like a vacation. We were drunk the whole time. We were boozing. We were laughing. We were basically causing a scene everywhere we go, which we always do. But I feel like we were kind of trying to be on our best behavior during that. It's so hard, dude. It's inevitable, though. It's inevitable. We were being really good. I think so, too. I think we did good. We didn't do anything bad. We had stints of being good and bad. No, we weren't bad at all at any moment, I would say. Except for when Ben ate all the shrimp.
True. Yeah, but that three shrimp. And three shrimp, and I gave one of them to Ken because he threw an absolute fit. That's just how he is. To put it into context, we're at the groom's dinner, and we start playing drinking games. Okay. Okay, so we were having the most fun out of all the tables there. Everyone was like, damn, I wish I was sitting at that table. And then another guy and his girlfriend happened to get seated with us. They had a drink.
They had a blast, I guarantee you. I bet you they were like, fuck, that was fun, but also I'm hammered right now. I wish I didn't sit with them. I was telling Greta this. I don't think that I've ever seen a group or been with a group that laughs more than us when we're together, especially us seven. You know, like the seven, us five, and then Jake and Justin. It's like, dude,
We feed off of each other so good. And I've always said, like, dude, I'm not surprised one bit that we made, you know, good, like, successful videos way back in the day because of our group dynamic is so entertaining and there's no one like it. You know, everyone I've been around. But we just laugh.
Constantly. Because we weren't filming, obviously. We were at the wedding doing our thing. And we were still just on our bullshit for no reason. I feel like it's even easier to be on your bullshit when you're not filming because you don't have nothing to worry about. And oh my God, dude. It was a blast. We did behave well, I would say, though. Compared to how we could have possibly behaved. We could have been. There was a couple moments at the wedding venue.
in the room you know in like the the groom's room or whatever when we were getting ready where ryan actually had to step out he was so embarrassed i know actually i stepped out oh yeah we might have been talking a little loud out in the wall we were in a little thin so i went outside one because i felt uncomfortable because technically technically i'm the best man so i'm in charge of you guys right but there's no controlling our group and so i was like all right
Obviously, we're not going to stop being loud and rowdy, so I'm going to go outside and see how bad it was. How bad was it? It was worse than I thought. I thought you could hear it in the hallway. Then I walk outside, and you could hear it through the wall, like in the window outside, and I was like, oh.
Oh, fuck. And I go, well, whatever. I guess it's fine because there wasn't that many people around. What were we talking about? I don't know. Some savage shit, though, dude. I think we were actually... I think it was... We were talking about Jake's love life. Jake was, like, going into detail about just some...
Bulgur shit, wasn't it? Wasn't that what it was? He was going into detail and he didn't want to. CJ was asking him all kinds of questions. I was just asking him questions. We were talking. Man, that was funny. The funniest part is it was us six and then Justin's brother-in-law. They probably think we are the biggest shit birds. Yeah, I can't imagine he would pick to hang out with us if he had a choice. It's like Justin is the most stand-up guy. He's the most stand-up guy I've ever met.
So he's got his friends that are just the most straight-laced, straight-arrow, just nicest, smart, educated, just very...
you know, well, well respected, respected people. Yeah. And then he's got us. Like I literally looked at Jake halfway through the wedding when they were like just doing their vows and all this beautiful, just the best. It was amazing. And I look at Jake, I'm like, how is this guy fucking friends with us? Why is he hanging out with us?
Ben was crying. I was almost crying, dude. I can't believe you guys didn't cry. How did you not cry, dude? That was seriously...
Some of the most beautiful stuff I've ever heard. Yeah, I didn't know you were so... I mean, I agree. It was absolutely beautiful, but I didn't know Ben could cry about something like that. Bro, it was heart-wrenching. It was. It wasn't heart-wrenching. Honestly, I genuinely felt bad for not crying after Ben turns around, tears in his eyes, and goes, how are you not crying? I'm like, I don't know. Dude, Megan got done with her vows, and I literally tapped CJ on the shoulder, turned around, and I went...
Oh, fuck. Oh, fuck. That was beautiful, dude. That was incredible. I could just hear behind me the whole time because Ben was standing behind me. He goes... He's whimpering, bro. He's talking to himself.
So in other words, it was beautiful. I think my favorite part. I'm going to be a puddle at my wedding, bro. I think my favorite. I don't know. It's just one of those things. Your wedding cry. Yeah. I think you're just a wedding crier. You're not. And unfortunately, I am. Ben's a sucker for love. My favorite part of everyone crying. I wasn't crying. I was just smiling. I thought it was great. Yeah.
But I looked down the line and, like, kind of Ryan was maybe tearing up a little bit. Then, like, the two guys that also were in the wedding that you guys wouldn't know listening, they were tearing up. And then I look at Jake and he's just looking right at the ground. He's not. He's just like this.
You know what? I was like, does this guy want to be here right now, or is he just trying not to cry? And it turns out, I think he was just trying not to cry, but it was really funny because he was just sitting like staring at the ground. I'm like, dude. Well, bro, at the end of it, I'm like just finally getting myself back together, right? I think I asked you and Ryan or you and Micah or Jake and Micah, sorry. And I go, how are you guys not crying right now? And Jake just goes, dude.
I didn't relate to a single thing they said. Like, everything they said meant absolutely nothing to me because it was like in one ear, out the other. Oh, can't relate with that. You know, about being in love. If Jake ever said any of those things, he'd be lying. Everyone else would know he's lying. I don't want to say that. I don't want to say that. I'm speaking for him. This might get clipped when Jake...
somehow gets married one day. I'm sure then he'll feel it then. We were just, we were boozing all day. Ben, you ended up blacking out. No idea how. Well, I do actually know how. I just drank a lot. I've never seen this guy just so out of it. I was actually out of it. I was like, I was literally, I was like a sheet in the wind, bro. I was just swaying. I fell asleep on a bus home. I never pass out. I wouldn't consider it a pass out, but I was like, I was, yeah, I was hammered. You're kind of like a,
A little puppy dog that's super tired on a leash. And then Greta was like dragging me along. I'm bringing you. That's where you got to go. You did tear up the dance floor, though. Yeah, the dance floor was legendary. I was getting down with it. I was getting down. I can't wait to see that video.
Yeah. There's videos. Yeah, there's a ton of videos. The guys in there with the gimbal, he's like, yeah, this is good. Yeah, they fucking blasted the thing. I'm like, camera, I'm feeling it. Let's get down with it. And then he was just almost following me around because he was like, this guy's entertaining. And I was really, I was busting down, dude. I was busting down. I think at one time I gave Ken a lap dance and I have never seen him more uncomfortable in my life.
He had to take a seat, you know, his knee. I'm no joke. He literally brought a chair onto the dance floor and sat down. At least you're here. I tried dragging Ken out for a couple songs and he's like, no, Cheddar, chill, chill, chill, my knee, dude. I forgot that Cheddar was born at the bachelor party. Or no, I guess it really wasn't. But like that's when it went. Yeah. Kind of hard. Speaking of Ken's knee. Ken, you want to do an injury update? Ken, you want to hop on the mic?
Give a little update. For those of them that don't know, Ken, explain how you hurt your knee and now where you're at in the process. So we were at a music festival. My buddy Ryan and his girlfriend, they told me, hey, there's this mechanical bull back here. You should go hop on it. And, you know, I had a few drinks in me and I was like, yeah, I'll do that. Did you forget who you were at that moment? Yeah. Because you're no Ken Doodoo.
But, you know, so I go over there, hop on, and, you know, it lasts like five seconds because the guy just spins me right off of there. You did good. It was good. And then I land, and it's just like my knee goes a direction it's totally not meant to go. So then I go to the hospital. We got a brace. Got an MRI yesterday, and it's a partially torn MCL. What's that mean, Ken? Yeah, do you have to get surgery? No surgery, but I just can't.
do much with it for like six weeks also would you it's your probably the best thing that could have happened yeah granted your knee will heal other than it partially tore but now you have an excuse to not do anything i can't imagine that you're too upset i mean no more that it happened and it's just an inconvenience did you get a handicap uh thing to hang i should have asked you should have actually limped a little more we were trying to get ken a mobility scooter
Dude, they're like golf carts. They're so expensive. Would you like that, Ken? Would you still prefer to have a mobility scooter? What did you do that got hurt? What did you do last year? I broke my ankle. Yeah, when you had that mobility scooter, it was so fun because all of us used it and just destroyed it. Ken was so jealous. And I actually needed it. You got your use out of it. True, true. It made it at least through the injury. The end of it was after we learned how to wheelie it. Pretty soon, all of Ken's joints are going to be bad.
Because you got your wrist taken care of? Got my wrist. Your left knee, your right knee now. My left knee, I messed up skiing. I think that's fine now. And then now my right knee. How's your head? So far, so good. Well, dude...
That bull ride was quite possibly one of the most entertaining bull rides I've ever seen. Fake or real? When you were spinning on that thing like a top. I had no idea what was going on. Were you at that point trying to hop off because it was like you couldn't get off the thing. You were spinning on top. It was like you were break dancing. You were literally break dancing on top of the bull. I had no idea what was going on. I was...
fairly intoxicated so i was just like along for the ride at that point i wasn't there but wasn't there like a bunch of i mean a handful of fans there too yeah after we dropped the video a lot of kids messaged me like hey here's a different angle of ken falling off the ball i'm like so like we got a full 360 cam on you so you actually think that it was ryan and alondra's fault i mean no but i wouldn't have gone on this mechanical bull
It's kind of like they influenced me going on it because I had no idea that thing even existed before that. Ken is so quick to just blame. Ken, that'd be like me blaming me when I broke my ankle on the pit bike. Blaming my dad for turning me onto dirt bikes when I was a little kid. Oh, no. I just love doing it because Ryan gets so defensive of it and he gets so angry. It's funny to watch.
Look at him right now. Yeah, he looks pretty calm, but he's a little rattled mostly because he just made a blatant lie up. Well, all right, Ryan, you ready? Ken's like, my work is done here. So yeah, everyone, big ups for Ken. You know, he needs that healing power. Yeah.
Yeah, we wish you the best on your journey, Ken, and we'll be here for you along the way. Keep Ken in your thoughts and prayers, everyone. I really wish I was on for a while Ken was talking because I will not tolerate this slander that it is my fault that you went and rode the bull. That is ridiculous. You're proving Ken's point right now. Yeah, we actually have a Snapchat. We'll play it right now. Yeah, I have a great Snapchat we'll throw up. And it's you going, I go, Ken, do you want to ride the bull? And you go, yeah, I'll ride the bull. Yes.
So that doesn't really seem like he made you ride the bull. He more so asked you if you wanted to, and you go, yeah. So of course he was going to bring you to the bull then. Of course. And then I put it on my Snapchat story, told everyone to meet us there in 15 minutes. We were five minutes late. Everyone was there. Dude. Definitely had a crowd. We're going to have to get like a little docusign made up for any time Ken does anything. Because when he hurt his hand, he blamed me for some reason, which I'm pretty sure I didn't even ask him to ride the dirt bike. But he was like, yeah, CJ made me ride the dirt bike.
It's like when a parasite is trying to attach itself to the closest. You're comparing Ken to a parasite? Yeah, it's like whoever's closest at the time, Ken is just like, you, blame. We'll watch it back. We'll have to check it out. Anyways, Jesus. Ben, can we talk about your latest habit?
Because it might be turning into an addiction. I would not consider it a habit or an addiction. I wouldn't consider it a good habit. Really? On everything we do, this is what you would consider a bad habit? Well, I mean, we've got plenty of them. I'm just saying you're adding another one to the list. So lately, Ben has been buying shoes. He's a sneakerhead. He has made it a goal. You were telling me on the way to the wedding that it is your goal to buy a pair of shoes
Once a week. Every week. So he wants to buy 56 pairs of shoes this year. Whoa, whoa, whoa. That's how much it would be. Hold up. How many months are there in a year? 56. There's 52. You said every week.
No. There's 56 weeks in a year. Did you say every week? I don't know if I want to commit myself to that. 52. Don't do it. I shouldn't have told you guys that. Well, you're already on the right track. How many pairs of shoes have you bought in the last fucking month? Probably 20? I bought two last night. If you count them as singular. You see what I'm saying? You have a problem. And they're all white. They're kind of baller shoes. Now I'm starting to diversify my portfolio. Really? Yeah. He's got like see-through shoes, like weird shit, man. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. Here's how I justify it.
One, we spend $100 going out to eat, right? So if I just don't go out to eat, boom, pair of shoes, right? Actually, though. Yeah. Actually. Okay, so that's one way, right? Another way, dude, I don't buy clothes because all I wear is just Seaboy's merch, right? So the only thing I do buy like once a year is pants or like jeans and shorts, right? So...
Not that I want to buy new clothes, but it's pretty easy to justify buying a pair of shoes to change up an outfit. I agree. When all I wear is Seaboy's merch, right? Yeah, you got to almost set yourself apart somehow. Another way...
Dude, everyone likes buying shit, like new shit. And shoes are just relatively cheap, like a cheap little adrenaline kick when you get them and you're like, ah, these are sick, you know? Like, let's keep in mind, that's what I was a little bit worried about at first is that there's two types of sneakerheads. There's people who just like buying shoes, getting new shoes.
I think that's fun. And then there's people who spend $300, $400, $500, $600 on a pair of shoes. A couple grand, yeah. I'm not at that point. That just seems silly to me. But I will evolve. I definitely will. It just seems silly to me. It's a slippery slope. It really is. Those are the type of shoes that you have to keep in the box and legit not wear. And then they're worth...
400 bucks more in a year but like that's no fun in my opinion right i'm not doing it as an investment yeah i'm just doing it just because i like buying new shoes yeah right now i'm just going dude i'm just like you guys we go through fads bro yeah like this is just my fad right now just let him have it you know who's the exact opposite of ben micah micah dude well especially with shoes i got a story so this would have been a couple years ago now back when we were at the old shop
And, like, you know, when you're doing dirty shit, you try to take your old pair of shoes and, like, you know, use those so you don't mess up your current pair of shoes if you're a normal human. Anyways, I had a pair of shoes that I had. Literally, I wore them throughout the 10th grade. It was, like, my 10th grade pair of shoes. These shoes are...
Five, six years old. I bring them to the shop and I wore them for whatever. And I was like, I'm not going to wear these anymore. So I throw them away in the garbage, the dumpster outside. A couple of days later, I come walking into the shop and I'm looking at the shoe rack and they're still on. They're back on the shoe rack. And I go, I threw these away. You know, I just leave them.
So I take them out of the dumpster and I put them on and I fucking mow in them. No, you don't. No, you don't. Because then I didn't, I just was rattled. I just left them and I went about my day. And then shortly after that, I see Micah wearing my old shoes. He's walking around. I go, yo, what?
He goes, yeah, dude, someone threw these away in our dumpster. And I was like, these are still good. So I took them out. I did do that. But I'm not the opposite of Ben for the record. I've owned more pairs of shoes than Ben's ever owned in his life. I don't know, dude. That was such a Micah move. I doubt that. And that's probably why. I really like shoes. I wouldn't consider myself a sneakerhead, but I have like 30 pairs of shoes. And how many of them did you find in the dumpster? Yeah.
Well, I don't have any now because I threw those ones back in the dumpster. I think I threw them away. Maybe. I was like, dude, you're not walking around with my old shoes on. That's fucking weird. Well, I got a new wallet, and I threw my wallet away, and Micah goes, oh, you're not going to use this anymore? Takes it out of the garbage and starts using that. No, no, I did not take that out of the garbage. You gave it to me. I was like, well, are you done with it? And I was like, I'll take it. I like that wallet. So would you consider yourself...
A dumpster diver. Would you consider yourself... A trash can swimmer. Well, some of those things. Or would you just say you're...
uh, you make use out of everything and repurpose things. Or would you say that you are a hoarder? No, I, yeah, I was like, I don't admit like why repurpose things. And then sometimes it's just like, you, you guys scoff at me and then like, I get that. Like, I'll admit that sometimes I just keep something and it's just like, why, why would you keep that? And then I just go, I wonder, I use it. Yeah. Yeah. You might use it, but that's the thing.
If you don't use it, or even if you just use it one time, we have this piece of shit laying around the shop. And it just eventually becomes piles of shit. What is a piece of shit?
The shit that you find in the garbage. Like shoes? See, it's not really an issue if you were to live alone or you had like your personal space that you could keep it in. Yeah, I get that. But for the longest time, you lived at the shop. So all of your shit was our shit pretty much. Yeah, but that was like really annoying too. It was like you guys all had shit and I just had more shit there because I live there. And you guys were like, this is...
uncontrollable. And I was like, well, it's like, it's my shit, dude. But it's all laying around. Yeah. Not really though. Well, I remember one time, not really. I remember one time we went to the bank and we had to do something at the bank and
And they, like, gave us, like, those fucking snap-on, like, bracelet things and, like, some koozies. We got a fuck ton of koozies here at the shop. Like, too many to ever use, and no one ever uses them, and they're, like, stuffed in this drawer, and it's just overwhelming. Anyways, Mike takes the koozies and takes the snap-on stuff, like the little snap-on bracelets.
Now it's like we got these snap-on bracelets. What good does the snap-on bracelet do? And you got it laying around. Yeah, I was like, I can't even answer that question. I don't know what a good snap-on bracelet does. And I tried throwing them away, and you're like, you're just going to throw them away? I go, well, yeah. I could see myself doing that with the koozies, not the snap-on bracelets, though. You know what, though, Mike? So...
We have basically a merch bin of t-shirts that are messed up. And for the longest time when we were printing our stuff, it would just be, you know, it's just like a multi bin, right?
And we've got a ton of sweatshirts, T-shirts, hats, all this stuff built up over the years, right? So then when we have people come over to the shop, we can just give them, you know, a T-shirt that's got a tiny little blemish in it, but you would never notice. We're pretty meticulous. Yeah, we're pretty meticulous. If it's got the smallest blemish, we won't send it out. So, which has been honestly great because then you can get like the people that, hey, I want to support you. And it's like, no, no, no, I don't want you to buy anything. Like you're my homie. Here's this.
So we had a plethora of that. And then we had a party here, and your mom and sister found out that they could take stuff, and they walked out with two trash bags full of our merch. And we were just cleaned out, which is fine. I mean, that's what it's there for. It was funny, though.
I was just like, geez. I was like, that's where this guy gets it from. Yeah, definitely. I get it from my mom for sure. Yeah, bro. This is, I mean, I'm not even outing her, bro. She's just a bargain shopper, right? She wears this like cheetah print dress to the wedding. And I was like, you look good, mom. And she's like, guess how much I got this for?
$4 at Kohl's. $4. And I was like, $4? A brand new dress. So that just blew my mind. But that's where I get it from. But whenever people come over, I send them off with stuff. And they're always just like, you don't have to do that. You're just giving me all this stuff. And I was like, nah, bro. They're multis or whatever you want to call it. So Mike, you got that from your mom? Definitely. And I got quite literally the opposite from my dad. My dad...
Hates clutter. Anything that is slightly not being used, garbage. Garbage. And my mom is like, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up. Maybe we shouldn't do that. You know, like she's a pretty, I would say in the middle, but my dad is so far gone. It's like if it hasn't been used in three days, it's like, do we need this? It's the throwaway to me that like hurts me. It's because like I grew up legit going to like garage sales and stuff. And it's not worth our time to like...
find someone to like, Oh, you could sell this for 20 bucks. Like it literally is not worth our time to find someone to buy it or even give it to. That's the biggest thing. But then I'm like, Oh, so we just got to throw it. Right. You know, it's like when you move, you have all this stuff. Like let's say you have like a clock and a bunch of silverware and some plates that you don't really want to bring. You don't want to give away.
To the garbage. I think you're not necessarily cheap. I think you're just more so resourceful. And you grew up that way. So I respect that. I would say cheap originally growing up. Yeah. My thing is, have you ever thrown something away and gone, oh, I wish I still had that? Rarely. Rarely. But I'd say there's been a few instances where you guys would throw something away and then I'd be like, damn, like...
We just threw that away, and we have use for it, but that's few and far between. You want to know something interesting that I've kind of been noticing lately watching YouTube? I watch a lot of YouTube because I'm always trying to get new ideas, see what other people are doing, what's working, what's not working. So I'm always consuming, and I always got an eye out. David Dober came back to YouTube. This is not super new news. A couple months ago, he came back to YouTube after his year-and-a-half-long break.
And when he left, he was at the top of YouTube. He was the guy. He was the guy. He was doing the craziest stuff. It was just mind-blowing what he was doing. Giving away cars. Yeah, he was giving away cars. He was giving away a Tesla. He just had everybody buy the balls as far as entertainment. It was so amazing, it seemed like. And it is still. But in that time, I feel like the bar...
Rose to like here and he's still here. And, uh, it just got me thinking. I was like, man, you know, it's just the bar for YouTube. Uh,
is so high nowadays. Like, to, like, really do something mind-blowing. And I think that's partially because of, like, Steve Will Do It, the Nelk Boys. Like, Steve is out there giving away multiple cars to strangers with no sponsored money. Like, changing people's lives. He's spending, like, a million bucks a video once a week. It's crazy. On just the most unnecessary but still very, like, courteous...
And it's just mind-blowing. So then David comes back, and I'm watching his videos, and they're still good. It doesn't have the same shock and punch to it. I think it's because, one, the way that Steve does things. But I think it's because Steve is doing it to literally random people. Yeah. Like, he'll go and surprise...
let's say Natalie with the new car. And you're just like, okay, cool. They work together. Like she has to fake be surprised because she's been around David. She's done all this stuff, but Steve will go up to some dude at a car dealership. He's never met before and gives him a car. And the guy is truly surprised. And I think it's so much more genuine and fun to watch. Every time I watch one of David's videos now, I go, yeah,
Yeah, man, that was cool, but it's kind of like, eh. Steve's just blowing me away every time. The insane things that guy is doing each week is insane. It's like, how the fuck do we compete with that even? You know what I'm saying? I'd say we're a very established YouTube channel, but like...
They're fucking way up here. And I know there's... It's like there's levels to everything. The way people look at us is probably like, we're way up here, but they're way up here. You know, it's just levels to this shit. How do you even begin to start? I think, like, money aside, too, from what Steve's spending. So, like, all the money that he's spending on everything aside, I genuinely love his genuineness. Like, you know, he literally posts some dumb... I mean, granted, like, the dude's drunk all the time, but...
He posts, like, some random selfie of him, like, just, like, partly in the picture. He's like, new video. You know, everything... He does a merch plug, and then he's just like, yeah, you know, like... It's not this not give a fuck mentality. It's just like... He's just like, why would I sugarcoat literally anything I do? Yeah. And I love that about him. I do, too. It'll be interesting to see where his views go because he's on this, like, fuck David Dobrik train. I want to be the biggest YouTuber. He is the biggest. And he is...
in my eyes, way bigger and better than David Dobrik, but it's interesting to see the masses agree with that and then come around to it. Because, dude...
If you guys didn't know who Steve Will Do It is, and I was just like, dude, you guys got to watch this YouTuber. I don't care. You're probably going to think he's super vulgar unless that's your kind of humor, right? But what he's doing is next level entertaining where nobody's ever done that. Athletes aren't doing that. The biggest rappers aren't doing that. Steve Will Do It's living like a billionaire. Yeah.
And he's a, he's got, he's still a YouTuber. All right. It's, it's, it's, it's an absolutely insane lifestyle and people are just so interested to watch it. I can't believe people like haven't heard of him in the nut boys. I know that's like our, we watch them. We've always looked up to them.
Actually, I have a surprise look on my face when people are like, oh, I don't know who that is. Sam. I'm like, what? The reason why that is is because YouTube is censoring them, dude. They're not pushing them. And that goes out to when I speak to new creators, I'm always like, this is a funny, really good idea, but it's not going to get pushed because now you don't have the people behind you.
And it just doesn't tend to what they want on their platform. And they do the insanely entertaining stuff and they're hilarious, but they also use copywritten music, which makes everything like five times better in it because you can almost like vibe through it. It's just more lit. I feel like David Dobrik, though, although he is...
I'd say over the line of what YouTube considers acceptable. For some reason, he got like a pass. Yeah, he did. I don't know why. He's like a Disney channel, Nickelodeon. I mean, he's won Nickelodeon awards, but you watch his videos. He's like going to porn conventions and stuff like that. And I'm like, how is he on Nickelodeon accepting a Kids' Choice Award? Because his content is so...
But he just has that like personality and vibe to him where it's like very friendly and innocent, which I don't know how the fuck he managed to swindle his way like that. I like him, but I just don't. It's amazing that he's getting away with it. CJ's always said this, like when we have, you know, we'll take out the F words out of our videos and we'll censor to an extent
but because you know you'll get parents that are like yo you know like my kids love you and we're conscious of that but it's like so you got a 10 year old kid watching our videos guess who they're going to click on next you know David Dobrik anybody really and so it's just like they're going to see it regardless and especially that's what was crazy about David was that
Little kids would watch these videos and just consume all of it. And you're like, man. And it's all just friendly David Dobrik. We were doing the same thing as kids, though. Like, when did you start watching South Park? I remember having to, like, turn it off when my mom would walk in. Yeah. Yeah, you were a kid and you were watching South Park. And you go back and watch old South Parks. And I was like, I was watching on Hulu. I was like, holy shit. I can't believe I got away with this. Way too savage for YouTube these days. Yeah. They would not fly. Nowadays, everyone's so soft. General consensus, everybody nowadays is soft. Mm-hmm.
everyone's just so quick to get offended. Yeah, because they're soft. But, like, why? Why are you such a social justice warrior for people that... For, like, no reason. People that don't give a fuck about you. Like, why are you sticking up and, like, getting so offended by... I just don't understand that. Also, people are way too woke these days, dude. A story of I was sitting at this...
uh festival the other day right and this guy taps me on the leg and he goes sup bro nice shoes and i was like thanks man i was like i was like thanks uh you too and he goes
i was challenged to compliment a random stranger today does that count and i was like sure sure but i was like doesn't that kind of just defeat the purpose why did you say that yeah yeah i was like man people are just way too woke these shit i told you hey micah i dare you to go up to that stranger and just give him a random compliment who says that for the record that sounds like something that you'd read in a new five like gum wrapper or some some shit yeah go and compliment a random stranger and he's just like
Like, I mean, it's kind of on the same... I don't know, man. People are just too woke. It's like everyone's so careful about what they say and how they say. You gotta tiptoe around everything. You could say something and have the most well, like, intent to it. Great, like, positive intent. And then they'll twist it and take it the other way and be like, wow, like, he had... He was...
So ill intent with what he said, you know, and yeah, it's riding a fine line of being an entertainer, but then still not trying to cross the line. Like that's why comedians, the best comedians don't ever say sorry. I think nowadays though, it's tough to be a comedian because you, you crack like a gay joke.
And you get fucking crucified. Yeah, I remember they, like, one comedian was saying, he's like, I have to, like, legit make jokes about everyone now so that everyone can be like, oh, you only made a gay joke and an Asian joke. Hey, you didn't cover the Mexicans. Yeah, so it's like, that's what he was saying. He's just like, then I have to, like, rip jokes about all of them. And then he's like, then it just feels weird. Yeah. But that's, like, the time we live in right now. I won't be surprised when it eventually goes full circle and goes back to normal because it's...
honestly exhausting it's exhausting and i think a lot of people are pretending seems like almost everyone is obviously there's things you shouldn't say and shouldn't do but like some of the stuff that's questionable like you like just chill out just chill out especially when especially when it's all for fun or like you know right like literally for people can't take a joke anymore so uh we got a new truck
We did get a new truck. What do you guys think about it? Genuine opinion. What do you think about that truck, if it was your personal truck? I love the truck. I love everything about it. I just don't like how stiff it is. It's way too stiff for me. I literally want to fill the bed of the truck with concrete.
So it rides better. So we go outside, CJ's like popping leaf springs out the back. He's like, it's going to be nice now. It's a fucking 350. And then it's lifted on super stiff coilovers. If we were hauling another truck on a trailer, I know it would ride better. It just needs weight to make the suspension actually move. But I mean, as far as looks. That truck gets more attention than Ben's Corvette and my GTR combined.
Literally. Because people are just like, what am I looking at right now? Red wheels? It's hard to miss, too. It's so big, you can't overlook it. Literally. So flashy. We'll see how long we can drive around in that thing before a state trooper pulls us over because of the tire poke or the fucking height of it. They'll pick it apart. I mean, we've driven past plenty of state troopers and...
police officers and stuff and sheriffs, but it'll just take one. And then they're going to probably write us a big ticket or something, but want to hear my craziest opinion on the truck. What is it, Ryan? I wish it was bigger. Really? Because this is my, this is my rationale. I'm very surprised by this. This is my rationale behind. I've been thinking about it a lot. I've stayed pretty quiet on the subject. Yes. The, the truck is already a bit past practicality, daily use,
snow driving, all this stuff, right? Mm-hmm. That case, the thing might as well be 14 fucking feet tall. You know? Like, it might as well. It's already past it, so we might as well, the next one, if we end up deciding that we want to get, yeah, no, get a 14-inch, whatever, man. Like, the bigger...
The better. Hey, I'm actually surprised to hear that, by the way, because you've been skeptical with both the first truck when we looked at it. You were very skeptical. Proven 100% wrong. That one turned out really well. This one, it's on the edge. We'll see. It's on the edge. But you were nervous about this one for sure. This one, definitely. The last one I was nervous about, and I was proven literally 1,000% wrong. I could not have been more wrong. But this one, I think...
When we start getting some snow and stuff with the wider tires, it'll be a little bit interesting. We'll see if we end up even losing it. We'll have to get a different setup. Yeah, either a different truck, obviously, or like a different wheel setup. It would be cool. I feel like we could do something different with the wheels and maybe get them a bit narrower, but still have it lifted like that and maybe get more of a beefy setup. And it could work for winter. And then have two different looks, too. If you just ran more tire on there, the tire will absorb a lot of the...
The roughness. I mean, it's on 26 is grand that they are 40s for tires. How wide? 14 or 12? They're 12. Okay. Anybody else? No, they're 14 wide. They're 14s. Not 16s. Yeah, they're 14 wide wheels. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But like a 40 tire is huge. But it's just, it's on such a large wheel that it makes the tire look relatively small, which then there's not a lot of give in it. Anybody else feel like it's almost too perfect to drive in the winter? Yeah.
Yeah, I agree. Dude, I don't even like driving that thing on a gravel road. The undercarriage doesn't have... We live in Minnesota, so we expect to see rust. Honestly, when I look under a car, if it's not brand new, I expect to see rust. And it doesn't have a speck of it, and it literally doesn't even have...
mud or dirt or anything under there. So yeah, I agree. It's like literally too perfect. And it's not like you just bought a brand new truck and drove it off the lot perfect. It's everything is powder coated. Everything has lights. Everything has wires running like so meticulously because it's so big and it's like everything about it is perfect.
And it'd be such a shame to like mess anything like that up. I agree. Because then as soon as, as soon as we do mess something up and then let's say in six months we want to send it down the road. Anyone that's in the market for that truck is going to be like,
There's rust there. Yeah, there's rust there. There's issues there where I could probably just go spend like a couple more grand and then get something that's perfectly dialed. So does Wisconsin not have salt on their roads? They didn't drive it in the winter, bro. It just sat in the shop. Not nearly as much as Minnesota. Dude, Minnesota fucking sucks for that. But also, like, there's the other side of it that's just like people, you know, people are going to be like, damn, you bought that big-ass truck and you just kind of just...
park it for the winter. We're going to mob it. We're still going to drive it. I don't, I just don't know if you guys are really going to want to take it on snowmobiling trips. I think realistically we ended up getting something else or maybe we send it down the road. Um, I, I mean the truck is great. I do love it. I would love to just keep it and then maybe have like a work truck. Yeah, that'd be ideal. It's, it's a show truck and, and it's, it's fucking cool. Like when I pull into the driveway and we got, uh,
All the cool vehicles we own, that is usually the most you look at that one. Yeah, grabs your eye first for sure. And everyone is fascinated by it, whether you like cars or not. That's what's cool about it. It's polarizing, dude. And it's polarizing. Yeah, we said that the other day. Either you love it or you hate it. Not many people don't have an opinion on it. Everyone's got something to say about it. Everyone's got something to say about it. So at the end of the day, as a YouTuber and entertainer, people that don't care aren't paying the bills. The people that hate you or the people that love you are.
Honestly, I don't take any offense to hate on the internet. Unless I did something wrong. If I was just being me, I kind of like it. It's great. It's just more...
More eyeballs. That's a good way to put it. Yeah, as long as you're not doing anything wrong and you're just being yourself, then it's just like if people are hating, they're still bringing pretty much just the same force as anyone loving. If I did something I wasn't proud of, though, I would be like, fuck. You know, that would suck. If you guys ever notice this where we don't post a video for five days and then you go back through and you read the most recent comments, you know, it's...
Everyone that comments on the videos right away obviously love you because they're the first people to watch it within 24 hours, right? True. But then once the video has been out on the internet and it's attracting people that love you and don't know about you, so that might be their first interaction with you or first time seeing your content. And then they get so irked by something, they leave a comment on it. Have you guys ever left a comment on a YouTube video? No.
I have, but not many. But not since we got to this level and I go, okay, I know what a comment does. And I go, I also, now we kind of have a platform. I'm like, oh, this will be cool. Like I've seen you comment on Danny's and they'll get tons of likes. And you're like, oh, this is cool that we are able to,
like almost reach out to this person in a way or show support, but I've never left a negative one. Well, my thing is I love certain YouTubers. Like, right. Like I look forward to when Steve posts in Nelk and Danny and all these big YouTubers, right? Like I absolutely love their content and what they do. And that's, I've still never even left a comment on it. Like that's,
how passionate or that's how much emotion I have towards them. Right. So then think about the complete opposite end of the spectrum. So the people that do comment on our videos, they're clearly like, they're so infatuated by us, which is amazing. They feel the need to leave a comment, which is great. Right. But then complete thing about the complete other side of the spectrum where you're so irked by something, you hate somebody so much. You're going to take time out of your day to go and comment on their video. Like,
How much emotion does that take? You literally have to be so upset to spend more time on the video and say you're two cents. You have to be so upset. Yeah, I've never understood that. I can't imagine living my life just getting mad at shit that I see on the internet or whatever. That'd suck. I would love if somebody who has left a hate comment left a comment on our video and explained why. What about it and what...
in your brain that you're like, I want to say something about this. And like, why? The rationale. Because everybody's got a rationale. Maybe it makes them feel better. I think a lot of people like that are so opinionated, they almost can't help but not. That's true. And it's like, dude, no one asked for your opinion. Yeah. They probably do it on...
I don't want to say every YouTube video that they watch, but every YouTube video that they watch that has some, you know, sense of emotion correlated to it where they either love it or they hate it. I'd imagine it's probably the same people leaving
really positive comments, then again, either you're a douche canoe or you're not. You know, if you're a hater, you're a hater. Yeah, exactly. Some people just like complaining. That's true. Should we talk about OnlyFans? So OnlyFans recently announced, actually yesterday, that they're not going to do any more sexually explicit content, which doesn't mean nudity. It means more like pornography, which I honestly didn't know that there was like
that much pornography. I figured mostly OnlyFans was just, like, nude photos. No, it's like anything, dude. It's just basically anything. Anything you want. Yeah, it's just monetizing. So why was that? I think it was something with their investors or something. So they...
were getting pressed by their... I don't think investors. I think it was their processors, payment processors. Like the credit cards? Right, wasn't it? So Ken was talking about it earlier. He was saying that Visa, who does all their credit card processing, is...
is pulling back or putting some kind of ban on them because of Visa's investors. They don't believe in it or what? Yeah, so I know that OnlyFans has an issue getting investors just because of certain things like that where investors don't want to be correlated to probably...
porn right but i know that like visa was having issues with them because uh they have mormon investors that don't agree with only fan with with only fans you know values values or everything that's on their content yeah yeah but dude only fans they have 120 million users and 2 million creators
Like 16,000 of their creators are making over like $50,000 and like 300 of them are making over a million dollars a year. Or a month. Yeah, yeah, probably a month. Wow. Yeah, which is crazy. So it'll be interesting to see what happens to, you know, the creators if there is that many creators that are going to be affected by it. Yeah, I was just going to say there's probably so many who are like, well, I didn't do that anyway, so we're good. I don't pay for OnlyFans.
Because I just, honestly, I wouldn't want to pay for that. But I was going to ask you guys, would you ever start an OnlyFans? Start one? Yeah. Run one? Would you post naked pictures or, like, videos of you fucking? Trust me, dude, no one wants to see this. No one wants to see this. But if people did, if people did, if they were going to, if, let's say you were going to make 50K additional a month.
And you just basically got to post a naked picture every day of yourself. Just myself? Well, I mean, you're probably going on a photo shoot and get some pretty risque. Okay, but just me, not anybody else? Sure, yeah. Just you, 50K. You're now naked.
All over the internet. I mean, granted, there's a paywall behind it, but that shit's going to get leaked. It's going to be out eventually. Yeah. I would even probably leak it. Just do me a favor. I don't think I'd bark up that tree. You wouldn't do it? No. For 50K additional? So let's say you did it for one year. Keep in mind, that is a hefty amount. Yeah. That is a lot of money. Let's say you do it for one year. But on OnlyFans, if you're a bigger influencer, let's say you're one of these Instagram girls with...
a good following behind you, you could easily make that. Seems like everyone has an OnlyFans. Whistling Diesel's wife has an OnlyFans. It's true. Hate to give her a plug, but... Hey, I was genuinely surprised to hear that. And she's bankrolling. I'm sure. Stupid money. Wild.
I mean, if you're whistling, bro, yeah, dude, I was going to say if I was in his shoes and my wife wanted to do, I'd be like, yeah, go for it. Yeah. Why wouldn't you? It'd be dumb not to. He's probably like, sweet. We'll build a new house off of what you're making on the fans this month. This month. No, absolutely.
Yeah. If you don't mind, I mean, I don't see why not. Yeah, no, to answer your question, though, I personally, no. You wouldn't do it? Dude, first of all, I don't think I could make 50 grand. What do you think? I'm saying if you did, but yeah, I don't think. Bro, 95% of our following is guys, and they're not signing up for that shit. I understand that. I was more so just saying hypothetically because I was trying to put you in the shoes of these other creators that are doing it. Well, am I a YouTuber still?
Yeah. Am I exactly who I am right now, but just having OnlyFans and I'm posting dick pics on it? Yeah. Wait, is it an anonymous? No. That's up to you, but dude, if you are anonymous, no one's paying. You're not going to pay 50 bucks a month. That's true. Yeah, that's true. That'd be the only reason why they'd be looking at you. Why am I even here? No, dude, I wouldn't do that. No. Really? No, I just... Fuck. Yeah, I don't think I would. I would rather make 50... Dude, I would...
I would rather make 50 grand doing quite literally anything else. Yeah. Would you? I don't think so, honestly. I mean, if I was hard up for money, I would. Hard up for money? I would, but I could see why some of these...
you know, like Instagram girls are doing it. Like you're already posting half naked pictures. Like just, I mean, a lot of chicks don't even post nude. Oh, on, on only fans, which I think is why I'm just saying, no, I also think you're an idiot too. If you're paying for that. Yeah. Yeah. I'm sure they don't, they probably don't, don't last. I mean, the people that are paying probably pay for one month then. Um,
They're making crazy money. I don't know, man. I'm just saying. If you have the opportunity and maybe you need the cash, you could make some life-changing money, and then you could sit on that money. And if you invest it correctly, you wouldn't have to... Very true. It would change your life. Invest it correctly. Who gives a fuck? You're naked. Everyone's... You're naked. I mean, it's just a fact of life, I guess. I mean, I'm just saying. It's always interesting...
To hear, like, the local girls that started to know OnlyFans from your high school or something like that. Well, what are they going to do, dude? No offense to them, but, like, you got, like, a thousand followers on Instagram. If you're making a fucking, like, a thousand dollars extra a month, like, now you're naked. Everyone fucking...
That wanted to see you naked is seeing you... That's a little different. I'm saying if you have a following... No, I know. And you can make, like, a chunk of money. Yeah. But I... Yeah. Yeah, at the same time, as far as, like, the, like, local people around you, if, let's say, a thousand seems a little low. But, yeah, like, let's say it's a thousand bucks or two thousand. I don't think that sounds low at all, bro. But I'm saying, yeah. What's a thousand divided by twenty? Twenty bucks. Five or fifty? Fifty. So, getting... Fifty people. Fifty people to sign up. Yeah. So, it's like, if you're doing that and you're making that extra thousand a month, let's say, like, I mean...
It just depends. Yeah, these chicks are probably sending nudes out to 25 of them anyways. You already are that way. That's true. So that's what I was saying. Like, if you're comfortable, I mean, I shouldn't say everybody sends nudes, but if you're comfortable doing that, then taking it one step farther isn't that bad. Let me twist it. Sex sells. Man. It is. It is. Can I twist it another way? Mike, you don't have a girlfriend, but let's say you guys' girlfriend is...
comes to you and says, hey, I want to start an OnlyFans, what would you say? Or let's say you're married. Let's say it's your wife, and your wife comes to you and says, hey, I want to start an OnlyFans. Am I in the position I'm in right now? Yeah. So I could promote it? Yeah. You'd say yeah? I mean, dude, look at Whistlin'. Look at how much money that's bringing in now. Okay. Right. Granted, you know,
That's a lot, so it's easy to justify. Whereas, let's say it's $10,000 a month. I don't know. I probably would. But it depends. Is it full nude? Yeah. Am I a part of it? If you want. Maybe. I don't know. It's up to you. I don't know. If they want it to, yeah. If they want it to do it, I'd just be like, okay. Yeah, it's your body. Yeah. All right, Ryan. That's tough.
I mean, yeah, I would say if they were like, yeah, I want to do it. I want to do it. I'd be like, okay, yeah. I mean, I probably wouldn't be like, please, babe, start an OnlyFans. Yeah, I definitely wouldn't push for it. But if they wanted to do it and it was their idea, I'd say, fuck it. Do whatever you want. Yeah, go for it. I'm sure there's a lot of guys in that position, though. You know, think about a lot of these women or a lot of these females that are dating a guy that's on OnlyFans.
It's true. It's just fucking... You think there's a lot of guys on OnlyFans? They don't let guys on OnlyFans. Oh, yeah. Are you kidding me? Really? Like, Harry Jowsey has one. Oh, does he? Yeah. And I think there's a lot of more, like, gay guys on OnlyFans. Yeah. But, yeah.
I don't know. Would you? Would I what? Let your wife? Yeah. Yeah. She wanted to fuck. Yeah. Yeah. Great. Especially she's making a bag. Yeah. It probably does depend on the bag. There's like money that does justify it. I mean, if you're making like fucking 500 bucks, I'd be like, all right, maybe this was a pretty random episode. I'm not going to lie. Yeah. We were all over the place. It was just a boy's episode. It's Friday morning. We started filming early, which was good. Yeah.
Ryan, I'm sure you're happy about that. I am a little bit happy. Ryan's got to go. Ryan's got to go. He's got a weekend with some other friends. We're going to wrap it up. New merch drop dropping Thursday the 26th. Get entered for the pit bike. Hit the subscribe button. Thanks for watching.
