1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Hello, Hi, Hey, hey, hey, Hey, what's your name?

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:05,360

00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 1: Wyatt? What's up? Wyatt? How you doing?

4
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 2: No?

00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 3: No, how you doing?

6
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: I'm chilling, I'm being a gecko, and I'm I'm truly,

7
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: honest to God looking forward to talking to people on

8
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:24,920
Speaker 1: the phone today and seeing what's up. And that brings

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 1: us into my next question, which is what's up?

10
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 3: Not a whole lot. I'm just finishing up a little

11
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 3: bit of work in my shop.

12
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:43,239
Speaker 1: Is there anything in particular you wanted to talk about today?

13
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 3: No, I not particularly. I'm a blacksmith.

14
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: What what's going on as a blacksmith?

15
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 3: So right now I'm fixing armor. I'm in a group

16
00:00:58,800 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 3: that does armored combat.

17
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 1: You're in a group that does armored combat, Yes, sir,

18
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: Like you and a bunch of your boys get together

19
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 1: and take and fucking smack each other with actual swords.

20
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 3: So it's an access.

21
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: Really does that?

22
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 2: Like?

23
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 1: Can you not like get killed doing that?

24
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess you probably could, but it's the sport. Like,

25
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 3: so all the weapons have to be blended and make

26
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 3: an only way like a certain amount.

27
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: All these sorry, so the swords and the knives and

28
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: in the axes that are all blunt. No knives. Okay,

29
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 1: so the swords and axes, they're all blunt.

30
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 3: The rules of the sport are you can't stab, so

31
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 3: you can't trust. You can't intentionally hit somebody in the

32
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 3: dick behind the knee, strike vertically down the spine or

33
00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 3: the back portion of the head. But aside from that, everything's.

34
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: Really okay. Do people get like really hurt doing this?

35
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 2: Yeah?

36
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, have you hurt doing this? No? Fortunately, what

37
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:12,119
Speaker 1: were you about to say?

38
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,519
Speaker 3: I know I was gonna say. I know a guy

39
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 3: that broke his arm. He blocked an act shot, stuck

40
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 3: his arm up and it shattered his arm.

41
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ.

42
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 3: A lot of guys blow their knees out acls because

43
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 3: the armor weighs like seventy pounds. Its heavy.

44
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 2: Shit.

45
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 3: You know, you step wrong, and you know you're you're

46
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 3: in like a judo throw. You step wrong and every

47
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 3: single tendon in your knee explodes.

48
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: Now, what do you think it is that inspires most

49
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: of the people who join this sport to join this sport?

50
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 3: Autism?

51
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: One hundredercent serious.

52
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 3: A little bit, yeah, yeah?

53
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: Why what is the what is the link between autism

54
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,959
Speaker 1: and armored combat? In your in your brain.

55
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 3: Well so so, I mean, and it's a little bit

56
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 3: of a joke, but only a little bit. It's a

57
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 3: lot of nerds who are also athletic enough and like

58
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 3: want to do like a physical sport.

59
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: But why not? But why not? Just like like why

60
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: not basketball or wrestling? Why armored?

61
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 3: Come you can't use a axe?

62
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Yeah, that's a dumb question of me

63
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: to ask.

64
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 3: Of course, Well, that wasn't a dumb question.

65
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no no no no, no no no,

66
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: let's get this straight. That was a dumb question of

67
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: me to ask you because of course, of no, no,

68
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: all right, we're not being kind to ourselves. That was

69
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: a dumb question. Of course, we want to play the sword,

70
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: to play the game with the sword and the acts. Okay,

71
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: it was dumb of me to even suggest to even

72
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: wonder why people wanted to get into this because we

73
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: want to hit things with swords. We want to kill

74
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: each other, but not Actually, that's why people play video

75
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: games so that they can practice killing each other without

76
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: the death. And this is a bit of a step up.

77
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: Yeah it is. Have you ever hurt someone seriously doing this?

78
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: Yes?

79
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 3: Yes? And I and I cried after it because I

80
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 3: am at the end of the day, I am just

81
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 3: a little guy. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I blew someone's I

82
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 3: didn't blow me out, but he couldn't walk for like

83
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 3: an hour afterwards. I he was he was bent over

84
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 3: and I chopped just above his knee and and it

85
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 3: shut his leg off and he just went down.

86
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: Holy fuck. He was he all right?

87
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,559
Speaker 3: Yeah after a while, Yeah, he was fine.

88
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 1: Do you play a lot of like high fantasy shit.

89
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 2: A little bit?

90
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm into like Lord of the Rings, but

91
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 3: aside from that, I'm not super I kind of feel

92
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 3: like an outsider a lot of the times because I'm like,

93
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 3: I'm not huge into Warmammer forty K or anything like that,

94
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 3: and it was pretty common.

95
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: It's kind of funny that you just said you feel

96
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: like an outcast because you're not into Warhammer.

97
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I mean. Like a little bit of

98
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 3: the autism is like it's it's an important feature, and

99
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 3: the Blacksmith thing is kind of my like hyper focus,

100
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 3: but with most of the other fighters, it's D and

101
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 3: D and Warhammer and whatever else.

102
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 1: I respect the people in this sport because yes, Warhammer

103
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: and D and D are traditionally very nerdy, but to

104
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,840
Speaker 1: take a step up and be like, no, let's actually

105
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: fucking quit being a pussy and take up an axe

106
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: and fight me like, that's awesome to me.

107
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 3: It's it's something. I was on the the American team.

108
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 3: We represented the country for the international competition in Mexico

109
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 3: this year, the first time in Mexico.

110
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: And Mexican sword fighting.

111
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 2: Sort of.

112
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's badass, keep going, tell me the story.

113
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 3: So there are so within the sport it's blueherd or

114
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 3: armored combat. There are dual categories, and then there are

115
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 3: the group fights. So the group fights are broken up

116
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 3: by five on five, ten on ten, twelve on twelve,

117
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: sixteen on sixteen.

118
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: Yo a six like sixteen on sixteen giant fucking sword fights. Yeah,

119
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: that's sick.

120
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I was. I was on the sixteens team.

121
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 2: You know, we fought it.

122
00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 3: There was a qualifying event beforehand. The best first and

123
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 3: second teams made five and ten, and then third and

124
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 3: fourth place work together to do the sixteen. I was

125
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 3: on the sixteenth team. We smoked smoked them, America. I

126
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 3: don't think there's a single category where we didn't bring

127
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 3: home gold.

128
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: That's so sick. Yeah, did it so sixteen on sixteen,

129
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: does that feel like three hundred?

130
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 2: Like?

131
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: Does it feel like a like tell me more?

132
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, it's five on five, not to change five

133
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 3: on five. It's a whole different game to where it's

134
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 3: you know, you can count how many people you have

135
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 3: to deal with. It's like you're in the one corner,

136
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 3: you're looking at two guys and then there's a third

137
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 3: that'll be on your right. Sixteen on sixteen, it's a

138
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 3: wall of men, and if you get in a bad spot,

139
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 3: the rest don't stop it because they can't get to you.

140
00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 3: So in the five on five, if you so you

141
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 3: know all your boys go down, you're the only one up.

142
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 3: If the enemy team has three up, they'll call it

143
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 3: there just because you're not going to win a three

144
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 3: on one, you're just gonna get broken. In the six teams,

145
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 3: that's not the case. So you can have three on

146
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 3: ones everywhere and they're not going to stop it.

147
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: Has anyone ever successfully as one man defeated three others.

148
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 3: I'm sure. I don't know if it's happened to where

149
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 3: the three were actively fighting at the same time, but

150
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 3: I'm I mean, I know guys that have sweat the

151
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 3: entire like the entire team before.

152
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: That's so cool. Now, normally, in a traditional sword fight

153
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: that I think of when there's like a war, you

154
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: beat your opponent when they bleed out and die. Yes,

155
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: And I assume it's not like that in these competitions.

156
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: How do you tell this to feed your opponents?

157
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 3: So when so in the groups, when you go to

158
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 3: the ground, you make three points of contact, you were

159
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 3: out because historically the way you kill a nite is

160
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 3: you put them on the ground and you stick your

161
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 3: bodykin through the gaps in his armor and stab them

162
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 3: to death. It's so because the sport is actually based

163
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 3: off of tournament fighting. So you've got jousting on one side.

164
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 3: There was a a foot and side of that to

165
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 3: where they were armored fighting with blunted weapons, and when

166
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 3: they went to the grounds that was considered they're killed.

167
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:42,719
Speaker 3: You keep fighting, So.

168
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 1: This is really just like a You have to knock

169
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: them down using your weapon, either.

170
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 3: Either by successful there's there's a lot of judo that

171
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 3: goes into it, or pain submission to where you you

172
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 3: hit the marginals that they give up go or you

173
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 3: break their armor to the point where they can't keep fighting.

174
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: So I got a question. Are you jacked?

175
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 2: Mmm?

176
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 3: No, at six one, two hundred and fifty pounds, I'm

177
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 3: in corn fed, but I'm not jacked.

178
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: Okay, are you like are you like strong guy?

179
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 3: I wouldn't say so.

180
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: How do you usually do in these tournaments?

181
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 3: Fairly well? Fairly well? I mean I haven't been injured before,

182
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 3: and I've been on a lot of winning teams. But

183
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 3: there's there's always improvement to be made.

184
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: What's your life like outside of armor battling.

185
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,880

187
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 3: that for a while, and part of that is to

188
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 3: support it. It's make armor, fixing the other teams, like

189

240
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 3: if we're talking in the sixteens, the category I fought

241
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 3: in it was USA France, and then I think the

242
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 3: Ukrainian team.

243
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: Russia was gonna be one of my guesses, although I

244
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: don't know if they're like embargoed from Funny Sports.

245

246
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: Okay, So I'm trying to think if I have any

247
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 1: other questions for you, Okay, your life, Do you have

248
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: a life outside of making steel things?

249
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: Not?

250
00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: Really, I don't think really I genuinely don't think you

251
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: need one. I think you have you have. You're you

252
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: strike me as a full, complete human being.

253
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 3: I think that's kind of generous, but I mean it's

254
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 3: a little tall to be a dwarf.

255
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: What would make you? What would make you more complete

256
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: of a human being?

257
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 3: I think if I was a dwarf, like a like

258
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 3: a fantasy dwarf, that would that would be the icing

259
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 3: on the cake.

260
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: Why don't you just be fancy as you are?

261
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:35,640

00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 3: To keep doing this as long as I can, until

00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 3: I die.

269
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:03,480

Speaker 1: of good decisions.

275
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 3: I think I've made a lot of bad ones, and

276
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 3: sometimes I make uh most of them.

277
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: Give me one example of a bad decision you've made.

278
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 3: I got engaged right out of high school mm hmm.

279
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:41,400

280
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 3: it it didn't band out very well.

281
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: How long did it last?

00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 2: Really?

00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: Only a few months?

285
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 3: What, it's a lot more common where I'm at.

286
00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: Where are you at?

287
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 3: Utah?

288
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: Oh?

Speaker 3: I am not EXMO.

292
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:06,679
Speaker 2: I was.

293
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 3: My parents left the church when I was a kid,

294
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 3: so I was raised around Warmon but I was not.

295
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 3: But the girl that I was engaged to was Mormon. Yeah,

296
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 3: so there was a little bit of a cultural thing.

297
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: Are you with anyone now?

298
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 2: Yeah?

299
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been dating a girl for about three years.

300
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: Now, how's that going good?

301
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 3: I want I think I've decided I want to make

302
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 3: her ring, and that's that's the only thing that's stopping

303
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 3: stopping it from the natural progression.

304
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: I think as a blacksmith, it would be a stupid

305
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: idea to buy a ring, right making I think, yeah, right,

306
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: making one and is way better.

307
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 3: It's romantic.

308
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 1: It is romantic.

309
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 3: Romantic in the classical sense too.

310
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's uh.

311
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's I didn't have anything to have, you.

312
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 1: Know, because you have that advantage of her most guys

313
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: is that you can make jewelry. You don't have to

314
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: buy it, right, It's pretty cool. And you know, you know,

315
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 1: it's not even like shitty jewelry, like I could make

316
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: like a bead, I couldn't. I was about to say

317
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,400
Speaker 1: I could make a bead necklace, but I couldn't even

318
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 1: do that.

319
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,880
Speaker 3: So you're kind of being harsh with yourself, sir.

320
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 1: No, I'm not. I'm being honest. I could not make

321
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: a bead necklace. I've not. I have not said a

322
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: single harsh thing about myself that wasn't true.

323
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 3: When has when's the last time you made any jewelry?

324
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 3: When's the last time you tried?

325
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: Never in my life? That's why I couldn't make it.

326
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 3: Why you're being so harsh?

327
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not like that's like saying that's like

328
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: if I okay, Like if I told you right now,

329
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: but hold on, hold on, whytt if I told you

330
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: right now that I couldn't deadlift two hundred pounds you

331
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: and you said to me, I am being harsh on myself,

332
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: I'd be like, what are you talking about? I cannot

333
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: deadlift two hundred pounds. I cannot make a bead necklace.

334
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 3: I think I would give you more rooms if if

335
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 3: you knew you couldn't do it, But you haven't done it,

336
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 3: so you're don't know. Harsh maybe isn't the correct word

337
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 3: if you.

338
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: Like that's like, that's like I can't do a kickflip

339
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,360
Speaker 1: on a skateboard.

340
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 3: Well a lot of people can't do that.

341
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: Well, well, hold, so why why? Why is that different

342
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: from me saying I can't make a bead necklace.

343
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 3: Because I don't think a bead necklace is super complicated.

344
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 1: That's because you make swords and ring That's because you're

345
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 1: you white.

346
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,040

370
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 3: it is kind of a kind of a strange combination.

371
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 3: She works with stuff that can technically killer.

372
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: Are you allergic to anything?

373
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 3: No, so the duality is lost on that.

374
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: I'm going to take questions from our live twitch chat

375
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: for you. You don't you don't have to, you don't

376
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: have to read them. I'll just read them out to

377
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 1: you if the twitch chat has any questions. But while

378
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 1: I wait for the chad questions to come in, I'm

379
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 1: gonna ask you one more question.

380
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 3: Go for it.

381
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 1: I'll try to think of one. Do you have a

382
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,719
Speaker 1: question that you want me to ask you? I hate that.

383
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 1: Never mind, that's stupid. That's stupid thing to say.

384
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 3: Again, you're being a little bit harsh.

385
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,959
Speaker 1: Why but I but it's okay. I would rather let

386
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 1: me tell you something. I would sincerely rather live in

387
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: the universe of truth then be night, then the universe

388
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: of Sometimes you know, some questions are stupid, some things

389
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: are bad, and some people such as myself, cannot do

390
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: some things. I enjoy the truth of this universe right now.

391
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: If I here's the thing, if I told you that

392
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 1: I was like an idiot and I'll never achieve anything,

393
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: and I just if I just really beat down on

394
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: myself like I'm a person of no value when I suck,

395
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,479
Speaker 1: I'd be being harsh on myself. But I guess saying

396
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: that was objectively saying what do you want me to

397
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: ask you? Is objectively a stupid thing for somebody conducting

398
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 1: an interview to say. And I believe that with full force,

399
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:23,400
Speaker 1: and uh, I stand by it. I'm allowed to make

400
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: mistakes and still be good at doing this. But that

401
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: was a stupid thing to ask you. And I'm you're

402
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: not going to change my position.

403
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 3: On that the last I'll let you have it.

404
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,439
Speaker 1: No go ahead, you were gonna saying, I want to

405
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 1: let you. You can say what you can say, what

406
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 1: you can say.

407
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 3: Hey, I thought you. I thought you got questions. It's

408
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 3: our questions.

409
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 1: I want to hear what you were gonna No, I

410
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: want to ask you plenty of the questions we got

411
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: questions with.

412
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, but this is really bringing up bringing something up.

413
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 3: There's an emotion here and I'm not sure. I don't

414
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 3: know what's going on.

415
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: All right, let's take questions from the chat. All right.

416
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: Somebody said, uh uh do you ever work with damascus?

417
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: What the hell is that?

418
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 2: Uh?

419
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 3: No, I don't. It's it's a it's folded steel. You

420
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 3: hit it up to where it's almost melting but not quite,

421
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 3: and then you hammer it together and you keep folding

422
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 3: it and it makes school patterns.

423
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 2: I do not.

424
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: Someone wants to know how many if you have any

425
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: battle scars, Like, do you have any lasting scars from

426
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 1: any of this?

427
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 3: Not from fighting. I do have a couple of scars

428
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 3: on my face, but they're completely unrelated.

429
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 1: You have, you know what? That's okay? You? It's so

430
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 1: funny because if someone's talking to you and you have

431
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 1: like a noticeable scar on your face and you're telling

432
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: them about the fact that you fucking professionally make swords

433
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: and do sword fighting, they're gonna be real bum to

434
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 1: hear that your scar is not sword fighting.

435
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, there was an older lady. I was standing in

436
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 3: the airport with my helmet my and because I had

437
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 3: to take it on because it's to meat weight bags whatever.

438
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,119
Speaker 3: She looks at me. She looks at the helmet and

439
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 3: she like leans in and stares at the scars on

440
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 3: my face. It's like, so is that how you got those? Like, no,

441
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,199

442
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 3: just like walked away.

443
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

444
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 1: You really got to start lying. You really got to

445
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: start lying when people ask you about this. I think, so,

446
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 1: what is what's the truth? Can I hear it?

447
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 2: Uh?

448
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,040

Speaker 3: I've got a line that runs down and then I've

450
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 3: got a cut in between my eyes. That was from

451
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 3: a rifle scope.

Speaker 3: Yeah, it's too close to it.

454
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,439
Speaker 1: Uh, Like you were shooting, you shot a rifle and

455
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: then there was kickback and the scope smacked in the face.

456
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

457
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,760

Speaker 3: It's it's a story.

459
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 1: Were you killing something?

460
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 3: Uh?

461
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: No, why are you shooting rifle?

Speaker 3: We were on a deer hunt. He shot out a deer,

467
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 3: didn't hit it. It was like the last bullets, Like,

468
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:25,960

469
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 3: not used to shooting with scopes, so I got way

470
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 3: too close to it and shot in it. Cut my

471
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:35,080

608
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 2: Dude.

Speaker 4: morals and whatnot. It's a pretty progressive company. But they've

611
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 4: been like they're a core energy drink company, so like

612
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,760

613
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 4: I always said like, oh, I want to be sponsored

614

Speaker 4: by these people because I used to skateboard growing up.

615
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,280

616
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,960

Speaker 4: I've never actually seen it.

635
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, they drive like a fucking monster energy truck or

636
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: it's some energy drink damn. So you drive the that's

637
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: so okay. Wait, tell me, okay, not for this to like, Okay,

638
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: I don't want this to turn into a big ad

639
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: for Monster, but I I'm just following my natural curiosity.

640
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 1: You telling me you like this company because it's got

641
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 1: strong morals. Tell me what does that mean? Like Monster

642
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:08,240
Speaker 1: has strong morals?

643
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 4: Strong morals. I might have used the wrong wording there,

644
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 4: but it's just kind of like everything that like I've

645
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 4: always stuck to, which is just kind of like keeping

646
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 4: more of an alternative and like a I guess, like

647
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 4: an edgier vibe of things like you whenever I like

648
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 4: I got into the workplace, like my biggest problem is

649
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:30,319
Speaker 4: like I'm pretty heavily tattooed, So like when I got

650
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 4: in there, I was really worried that some of my

651
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 4: tattoos that were gonna be like, oh, we can't hire

652
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 4: this guy because you know he's he's he added the

653
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 4: fuck up. But no, they told me that, like my

654
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 4: look that I walked in with was exactly what they

655
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 4: were looking for for my position. They were sounds kind

656
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 4: of weird, but like they were looking for someone who

657
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 4: has an edgier and more alternative.

658
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 2: Look for the role.

659
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 1: Fuck it no, that's why, bro, that's who I want

660
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: handing me a free can of Monster Energy is a

661
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 1: tattled up guy named Dale dude.

662
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,440
Speaker 4: And that's like that's another like great thing is like

663
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 4: I was working, uh this festival called Bridge to Day

664
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:08,399
Speaker 4: up in West Virginia, and like I'll talk a little

665
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 4: bit more on that in a second, but uh, there

666
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 4: was there was a group of girls who had walked by.

667
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 4: At one point, they like point out the truck. They

668
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 4: were like, that's what a monster dude looks like. And

669
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 4: I was like so like self fulfilled in that moment,

670
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,320
Speaker 4: was like, Yeah, I fit into this job role.

671
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 1: That kicks ass man. That's so cool. Right, wow? So

672
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 1: how long you've been doing that for?

673
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 4: So I've actually only been doing it for about uh

674
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 4: like five maybe six months?

675
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 1: Now is this a long term thing?

676
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 2: Like?

677
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 1: Is this a career that you can like hang out

678
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:39,720
Speaker 1: at for five years?

679
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 4: So likely for at least five years, because it's the

680
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:47,240
Speaker 4: brand that I work under, specifically, h like the monster

681
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 4: like sub brand has been around for almost ten years.

682
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,600
Speaker 4: I think they started a program about five years ago.

683
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 4: But if it ever goes away, so likely just moved

684
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 4: me off into like a different branding position, I would hope,

685
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 4: Or they'll just make me drive a different truck, which

686
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 4: would also be cool as long as I still get

687
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 4: to like shoot out to events and continue doing my passion.

688
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 1: It sounds like I really can't like this sounds like

689
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: a sick fucking job. How old are you?

690
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 4: I am twenty five?

691
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 1: Very cool, very cool? Now, how do you are you

692
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,279
Speaker 1: in the truck alone or is there somebody else helping

693
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: you out.

694
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 4: So normally on events, we have local crews everywhere across

695
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:37,080
Speaker 4: the country, and sometimes they will pair me with one

696
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,439
Speaker 4: or two people. But there have been many events where

697
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 4: I have gone out and I'm just like solo sampled.

698
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 4: So like most of the events that I've solo sampled

699
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 4: were looking at like a population of like maybe four

700
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 4: to seven thousand people, but like Bridge Day is a

701
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 4: great example of that was an attendance of two hundred

702
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 4: thousand patrons.

703
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:02,399
Speaker 1: Now I feel like I had two sorry guys, go ahead,

704
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 1: go ahead.

705
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:05,959
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, okay, fine, but I had two other guys

706
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 4: with me that day, because I mean do we were

707
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 4: just we were slammed the entire day. It's a wonderful time.

708
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,760
Speaker 4: Absolutely loved being that busy and being able to deserve

709
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 4: that many people. But without the other two guys, I

710
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:20,320
Speaker 4: would have been swamp and probably would have drowned in

711
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:20,760
Speaker 4: that moment.

712
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 1: So cool. So I feel like, tell me what your

713
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: interactions with these people have been like, because I assume

714
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 1: that people who are like at a music festival on

715
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:40,479
Speaker 1: drugs or or drunk or whatever getting a free thing

716
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 1: from you are probably in a good mood.

717
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 4: So dude, it's like actually really polarizing, and I mean

718
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 4: it's one of the reasons I love the job. I'm

719
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,239
Speaker 4: a huge people person. So like there's so many people

720
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 4: that come up and like we've attended the event like

721
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 4: years prior, and they come up and they're like, Yo,

722
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 4: no way the monster truck, Dude, we missed you guys,

723
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,920
Speaker 4: Like we've been looking around for you all day, and

724
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 4: like that's always like such a good feeling because like

725
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 4: they always leave with like smiles on their face and like.

726
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 1: We fucking love you.

727
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 4: Oh, you guys are great. And I mean that's always

728
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 4: like the sunshine is like an event for me. And

729
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 4: then there's also people who come by and they just

730
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 4: don't know about the brand, and I tell them on

731
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 4: the brand, and you know, they leave away with a

732
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 4: little bit or they walk away with a little bit

733
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 4: of knowledge of like the drink itself, how the can looks,

734
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 4: so they can find it in store, and also they

735
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:33,840
Speaker 4: get to try the flavor and they can give me

736
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 4: like positive or negative feedback on it. I always appreciate

737
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 4: it because I drink some of the things sometimes. But uh,

738
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,319
Speaker 4: and then you have people who walk up and they're like,

739
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 4: uh uh I drink. I drink dark coffee and dark

740
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 4: coffee only I'm drinking, and blacks don't offer me nothing else.

741
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,800
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, yeah, no, it's freeze.

742
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 1: You ask people. Oh, people think that you're trying to

743
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 1: like sell it or whatever.

744
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 4: Dude, Dude, that's the biggest that's the biggest problem with

745
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 4: the job. And like I'm doing, I'm working on ways

746
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,720
Speaker 4: right now to like kind of get around, like people

747
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 4: like seeing my truck because I was actually just in

748
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,359
Speaker 4: Miami not long ago for art bossals cool and uh

749
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 4: I was like pretty much just posted up on the

750
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 4: side of the sidewalk, so like people would see my

751
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 4: food truck with canopy open and they would they would

752
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:22,919
Speaker 4: see the truck and they'd go, oh, that guy's gonna

753
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 4: try to sell me something, and they would cross the street.

754
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,239
Speaker 4: And it would completely like I thought it all day

755
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 4: long for like five days, like where people would like

756
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,359
Speaker 4: make eye contact with the truck go uh huh uh huh,

757
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 4: and then would just cross the street.

758
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 1: Little do they know they could have gotten something for free, dude.

759
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 2: And that's the thing.

760
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 4: People will walk by all the time and they'll try

761
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:40,759
Speaker 4: to ignore me. You know, like whenever people try to

762
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 4: talk to you and I like the mall key off,

763
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 4: they're like, hey, man, can I clean your shooes? And

764
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 4: You're like just keep walking and they won't notice.

765
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: Mm I.

766
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 4: You know, I always try to like offer up, like hey,

767
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 4: would you like a complimentary Monster? And if they keep walking,

768
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, don't I don't understand how you don't

769
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 4: like free stuff? And they're like, wait, hold up did

770
00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 4: you say it's free? And they'd snap back around real

771
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 4: fast and come grab something.

772
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 1: So you said this is like it's like a sub brand.

773
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 1: But because you're well, okay, a couple of things. One,

774
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: you said that people like give you feedback on the flavors.

775
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:15,320
Speaker 1: Do you like send your feedback to Monster HQ? Like

776
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: are you single handedly influencing the taste of Monster Energy drink?

777
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 4: No, that was the case, there would be a Chai Monster.

778
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 4: So I don't work under Monster cream like the standard

779
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:32,160
Speaker 4: like Monster. I work for the coffee brand the Java side.

780
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 1: Oh you work for Java Monster? Yeah, okay, let me

781
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: all right. I have I have actually opinions about Java Monster.

782
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, Oh, I though, I there's been like

783
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,879
Speaker 1: one or two I've had a Java Monster maybe one

784
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,319
Speaker 1: or two times in my life, and uh, when I

785
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,360
Speaker 1: wake up. There's been times where like I wake up

786
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: from a nap and I'm just like insanely groggy and dehydrated,

787
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 1: and I drink a Java Monster and I'm like, this

788
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 1: is the most fucking delicious thing I've ever had. And

789
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 1: then I look and I'm like, oh, there's about three

790
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 1: hundred grams of sugar in this fucking can.

791
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, And see, that's the bad side about trying to

792
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,439
Speaker 4: market it to older people. Not calling you old Viisle

793
00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,799
Speaker 4: Happy Birthday, by the way, But you know a lot

794
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 4: of young people like sixteen to like twenty, they're not

795
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 4: really looking for those labels. They don't really care. But

796
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,760
Speaker 4: we make it super sweet with real cream, real sugar

797
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 4: and everything else so that younger people will like it.

798
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 4: And you know a lot of older folk will come

799
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,280
Speaker 4: by and be like, hm, it's got like sixty grams

800
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,359
Speaker 4: of sugar in and I'm like, yeah, I mean that's

801
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 4: what the kids like. But yeah, no, it has a

802
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 4: lot of sugar. But another thing that I have to

803
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:50,960
Speaker 4: tell people, because a lot of people have the misconception

804
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 4: that Monster Java is just like the standard energy drink,

805
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:58,440
Speaker 4: but we make it coffee flavored, and it's not that

806
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 4: it's like no, yeah.

807
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 1: No, it's yeah. If you just if you just put

808
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 1: like if you just took like coffee with cream in

809
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,759
Speaker 1: it and then you poured a Monster energy into it,

810
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:08,759
Speaker 1: that would be disgusting.

811
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:10,359
Speaker 4: Absolutely.

812
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,399
Speaker 1: Wow, that's hilarious that you work for Java Monster. Okay,

813
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 1: let me ask you this, how many of those? Because

814
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 1: how many of those do you drink a day? Because

815
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 1: if the answer is you drink at least one a day,

816
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: I have to assume that you've significantly shortened your lifespan.

817
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 4: So fun story and like kind of ironic because I

818
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 4: don't really drink a lot of the Monster products. I

819
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 4: don't drink like any energy drinks for that matter. I

820
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 4: have a little bit of a Coca cola problem. I

821
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 4: love a good soda, but it's just a little too

822
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 4: much caffeine for me. I get jittery and anxious.

823
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 1: M do you drink while you're on the job.

824
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 4: I'll drink whenever an element because like sometimes I'll be

825
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 4: posted up for like eight or nine hours, so like

826
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:59,840
Speaker 4: I'll grab a water, might drink half of a coffee

827
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 4: because I mean truly, like the Javas. I do think

828
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 4: that they're all really good. It's just I know I

829
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 4: cannot handle drinking an entire one.

830
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're delicious, They're just like fucking like five hundred

831
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 1: calories or whatever. Are there gonna this is a this

832
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 1: is not even uh, this is not a I'm just

833
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 1: asking this of my own pure like, this is just

834
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:24,840
Speaker 1: for me. Are they working on like a zero sugar,

835
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,799
Speaker 1: zero calorie version of the Java Monster. I'd fuck with

836
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:28,320
Speaker 1: that heavily.

837
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,759
Speaker 4: See, I have absolutely no idea. I'm actually like not

838
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 4: that like deep into the program. I just I'm just

839
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 4: kind of like branding out on event.

840
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,959
Speaker 1: This is cool. I love this is such a fun job.

841
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 1: Like if I weren't doing what I do, I would

842
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:52,359
Speaker 1: love to do your job. That sounds well, let me here.

843
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,799
Speaker 1: We'll say, I'm gonna let the twitch chat throw some

844
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:59,359
Speaker 1: questions in there that I'll ask that, and I'll ask

845
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 1: to you, what's your life like outside of driving the

846
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 1: Monster Energy truck? Do you like life? Oh?

847
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:07,600
Speaker 2: Dude?

848
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 4: I mean, uh, personally, I'm a pretty depressive dude. But

849
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 4: I mean I just play video games. I used to

850
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:16,000
Speaker 4: paint and draw because I've before I worked for like

851
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 4: concerts and getting into a Monster. I used to like

852
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 4: want to be a tattoo artist and things, and that

853
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 4: kind of like falls into this position as well because

854
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 4: I get to draw up on the shock boards and

855
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:27,560
Speaker 4: whatnot my truck. But uh, I mean no, man, I

856
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 4: kind of like dropped a lot of my hobbies to

857
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 4: focus on like just becoming more financially forward and more

858
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:36,040
Speaker 4: successful in my future, which is like kind of sad

859
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 4: because you need like a good balance, but I'm so

860
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 4: fucking busy at this point that like it's hard to

861
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 4: balance the two.

862
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: Do you feel like your job has helped with your depression?

863
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 2: Oh?

864
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:49,360
Speaker 4: For sure, because I get to go to work and

865
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 4: actually do something that I enjoy every day.

866
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have to imagine, like, uh, well, it's funny

867
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 1: because like traditional retail is like miserable for so many people.

868
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,360
Speaker 1: But what you're doing, just like handing shit out for

869
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: free and getting to talk to people and whatnot, seems

870
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: like it's nice.

871
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,840
Speaker 4: Oh dude, it's such a pleasure in my eyes, because

872
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 4: like it's ninety five percent of time it's just smiles.

873
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 1: Okay. Somebody said, uh, uh, what's Monster's mission statement?

874
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 4: You know, that's a crazy question. I have no idea.

875
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,359
Speaker 1: Uh have you ever scored a chick's number from doing this?

876
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:37,839
Speaker 4: I am very happily in a committed relationship. There could

877
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,879
Speaker 4: definitely have been times I probably could have, but it's

878
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 4: not really my goal focus while working my job.

879
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: My man, has anyone complained about getting a free monster?

880
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 4: I've had a lot of people like I hand it

881
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:54,440
Speaker 4: out for Finna, like why are you doing this? Like

882
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,360
Speaker 4: there's some kind of catch because like I've had like

883
00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 4: kind of fish people and I'm like, I'm not trying

884
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:00,920
Speaker 4: to tell you nothing. I'm not gonna tell you anything.

885
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:03,760
Speaker 4: Just come grab a can. It's absolutely agree And people

886
00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 4: are like, there's no way it's free. Why why are

887
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 4: you doing this? And I can't like really look at

888
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 4: our our clients, like our patrons, face to face and

889
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:12,720
Speaker 4: be like we're doing it because it's really good for branding.

890
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 4: But I mean that's essentially what it is.

891
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 1: Well why why why wouldn't Why wouldn't you? I think

892
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: that's a fair truth to say. Why don't you look

893
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,279
Speaker 1: at that? That that's that's a solid truth. We're giving

894
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: away for free for marketing. That's true.

895
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 4: The thing is is a lot of companies would would

896
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,239
Speaker 4: prevent going out that way. I mean, there's a lot

897
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:36,000
Speaker 4: of radical companies that are very much that way. But

898
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:40,239
Speaker 4: I think in our vision of doing our marketing was

899
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,239
Speaker 4: we don't want to seem desperate to get rid of

900
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,279
Speaker 4: our stuff, because I mean, at the end of the day,

901
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:46,920
Speaker 4: we are canning out thousands upon thousands of dollars.

902
00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 3: You're absolutely free.

903
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:51,880
Speaker 1: Someone wants to know, have you experienced any road range?

904
00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 1: Have you experienced any road rage in the Monster truck? Oh?

905
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 4: Dude, I don't want to like get rid of I

906
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:02,319
Speaker 4: don't know if like any of my bosses or co

907
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,799
Speaker 4: workers well over here this so like I'm gonna say this,

908
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 4: driving in Miami was terrible. Not gonna not gonna go

909
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 4: much deeper than that. But if you've ever driven in

910
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:17,240
Speaker 4: Miami you probably understand.

911
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 1: What I mean. I don't how much deeper can you

912
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 1: really get on that? Very very Uh? Is Monster a

913
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: demonic company? I have heard some rumors about that, dude.

914
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 4: Everyone at Monster is an absolute joy to work with.

915
00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 4: The higher ups. Like it's really hard to explain, like

916
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 4: feeling so comfortable in a workplace, like getting it and

917
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:44,919
Speaker 4: like I feel like a boot liquor right now, saying

918
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,360
Speaker 4: I'll be thinks because I've always been like, man, screw

919
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:52,400
Speaker 4: major Corporation's a terrible bell. But like, I don't know, man,

920
00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 4: it seems like everyone's on the same page, a monster.

921
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 4: We all want to have a good time. We all

922
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:57,800
Speaker 4: want to do the job. The job has to get done.

923
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 4: And uh, I mean we go out to these event

924
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:02,640
Speaker 4: and we're going there for the people there. The people

925
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:05,000
Speaker 4: at the event are what makes our jobs worth it.

926
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:10,040
Speaker 1: And I I, oh, go ahead, Oh no, no, I

927

00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,400
Speaker 4: Oh do all word moomb And I have no idea

00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 4: what I was about to say.

930
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:18,760
Speaker 1: So well, someone was gonna say. Someone said, this isn't

931
00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 1: this is more of a comment. Someone's saying, I'm getting

932
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:25,240
Speaker 1: heart palpitations just listening to this guy.

933
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 4: What does that mean?

934
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:28,840
Speaker 1: Because you because you sell them? Okay, I thought you

935
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 1: would think that was funny because you sell Monster energy.

936
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,359
Speaker 4: Anyway, Oh okay, that makes sense.

937
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, someone said, okay, this one. I also think I'm

938
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 1: not asking. I'm not posing this to you as a

939
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:42,440
Speaker 1: real question. I'm posing this to you as this is

940
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,719
Speaker 1: also something funny. In the chat, someone said, do you

941
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: think you have the ability to have children? Still? I

942
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,759
Speaker 1: guess considering, but you don't even you don't drink the

943
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:54,320
Speaker 1: monster that much, so you're.

944
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 4: Fine, Oh yeah, no, I don't figurely drink it, but

945
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 4: also not really that interested in having kids.

946
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:08,040
Speaker 1: All right, let's see here, what's the least favorite events

947
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,280
Speaker 1: you worked for? Give me least.

948
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,400
Speaker 4: So, I mean, that's hard to like really jot down.

949
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,439
Speaker 4: I would say that one of my least favorite things

950
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 4: that I've done is doing like more like just passing

951
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:27,839
Speaker 4: out at like very very small get togethers. I won't

952
00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,160
Speaker 4: I won't listen anything, as we have major contracts with people.

953
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:33,879
Speaker 4: But I mean, one of my favorite things that I've

954
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:38,600
Speaker 4: done so far was working this one music festival called

955
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 4: what was it? I think it's born and raised the

956
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 4: country music festival. And I'm not much of a country

957
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 4: music kind of guy, but the people who were camping

958
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:51,840
Speaker 4: out there were such a good time to talk to

959
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 4: and interact with and passing things out to them. They

960
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,000
Speaker 4: were just so stoked because most of them are drunk

961
00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:01,279
Speaker 4: or hungover or doing some kind of drug and they're like,

962
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,480
Speaker 4: you're saying, I can have this for free, and I'm like, yeah, dude,

963
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 4: just take it, get out of here, and they just

964
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:11,279
Speaker 4: like They'll come back three or four times throughout the day, like, hey, man,

965
00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:13,160
Speaker 4: the the you know, the whole festivals. That's like really

966
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 4: get going. I need something to keep it going. I'm like, sure, dude,

967
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 4: I get it. So like being at music festivals where

968
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:22,239
Speaker 4: like there's a whole lot of people camping, waking up

969
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,799
Speaker 4: early in the morning ready to drink a coffee. That's

970
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:27,360
Speaker 4: like hmm. It's like a good sweet spot for me

971
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:29,560
Speaker 4: because I love music festivals. I love seeing people getting

972
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 4: like super excited to go have like the time of

973
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 4: their life for like a whole week.

974
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:36,720
Speaker 1: I have one all right, I got one final question

975
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:40,720
Speaker 1: from the chat, and it's an important one. Okay, Okay.

976
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 1: They want to know the Red Bull car, you know,

977
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 1: the one with the big red.

978
00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:49,840
Speaker 4: Do you guys buy the Red Bull car while driving?

979
00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 1: Do you guys have beef with the Red Bull car?

980
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:56,840
Speaker 4: I don't know if like other monster people have like

981
00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:00,000
Speaker 4: problems with them with the Red Bull car. Personally, whenever

982
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:02,080
Speaker 4: I saw it on the inter state, I spuit up

983
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:04,840
Speaker 4: or sped up till I get next to it so

984
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 4: I can like wave at them all goofy, like yeah,

985
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,440
Speaker 4: because like there's no beef with me. Personally because I

986
00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:13,560
Speaker 4: think like with Monster and Red Bull kind of being

987
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:17,359
Speaker 4: like the uh, the core giants of the energy drink world.

988
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,080
Speaker 4: I think there's like a mutual respect. We're not really

989
00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 4: like competition. It's like a mutual respect between the two companies.

990
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,319
Speaker 1: I'm wondering if there's a way that both you and

991
00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:31,320
Speaker 1: I can make money off of this phone call from Monster,

992
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,040
Speaker 1: But I don't. I don't think there is no.

993
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,319
Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure if honestly, if I hire up here

994
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 4: is this, there's a possibility I could lose my job.

995
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:39,560
Speaker 4: But it's such a cool thing.

996
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:42,400
Speaker 1: To talk about, So like, why would you hold on?

997
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 1: Why would you? First of all, that's why would you

998
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:48,239
Speaker 1: lose your job? Talking about this on the podcast you're

999
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:53,640
Speaker 1: giving a you are giving free advertising two Monster Energy. Honestly,

1000
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,359
Speaker 1: hearing you talk about this, I'm talking about how lost

1001
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:58,719
Speaker 1: in the company is. It's making me want a job

1002
00:52:58,800 --> 00:52:59,799
Speaker 1: a Monster right now.

1003
00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:03,320
Speaker 4: I mean, please, And then why would.

1004
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:04,480
Speaker 1: You why would you get why would you get in

1005
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:04,960
Speaker 1: trouble for this?

1006
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:07,040
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1007
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,320
Speaker 4: Monster's a pretty specific like you can go on Amazon

1008
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 4: right now and type in Monster Energy T shirt and

1009
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 4: you'll get thousands of thousands of results. For that right,

1010
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:22,520
Speaker 4: But the branding that Monster does is so specific, like

1011
00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 4: you wouldn't understand, like looking at the two logos, like

1012
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,839
Speaker 4: which one is like the legitimate one, because there's such

1013
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:30,439
Speaker 4: tiny little details that Monster puts in there, like even

1014
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:33,160
Speaker 4: like getting like our custom merchandise that like the drivers

1015
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:36,600
Speaker 4: and stuff, where the branding team is like super super

1016
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:40,200
Speaker 4: specific about who gets it, who can wear it, How

1017
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:42,240
Speaker 4: the labels can be like put on there, like everything

1018
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:46,280
Speaker 4: is like to a key of like what is allowed

1019
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 4: in the company. So like I don't know, maybe talking

1020
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,400
Speaker 4: and trying to brand over the phone.

00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:05,960

1088
00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:14,759
Speaker 2: it seems like I've become more conscious. I've become more like,

1089
00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:22,600
Speaker 2: you know, I feel like I should how do I say,

1090
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:25,720
Speaker 2: be less of a dumb ass?

1091
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:31,040
Speaker 1: Oooh okay, well let's get into that. What do you

1092
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,479
Speaker 1: I mean two questions? What do you say you feel

1093
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,360

1094
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:39,280
Speaker 1: like you should be more conscious of? And and what

1095
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 1: does not being a dumb ass look like?

1096
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 2: So it's more of the not being a dumb ass part.

1097
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:48,160
Speaker 1: I guess, like, Okay, you're trying to be conscious of

1098
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:50,720
Speaker 1: not being a dumb ass. So what is not being Yeah?

1099
00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:52,880
Speaker 1: Exactly what is not being a dumb ass look like?

1100
00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:57,960
Speaker 2: One solid example of not being a dumb ass is

1101
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:01,760
Speaker 2: so I went to school and I had student loans, right,

1102
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:05,800
Speaker 2: and I just was like, ah, yeah, that's not real.

1103
00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:08,640
Speaker 2: I don't have to pay that, you know, and I

1104
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:12,960
Speaker 2: you know, just forget about it for many years. I

1105
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:18,160
Speaker 2: probably it's been probably since twenty seventeen that I got

1106
00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:21,680
Speaker 2: out of college and I just started paying it back

1107
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaker 2: this year.

1108
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 1: What do you do?

1109
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:32,919
Speaker 2: I am a a welder, a welder and fabricator.

1110
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:36,120
Speaker 1: Oh that's so cool, that's like you you really have.

1111
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:39,360
Speaker 1: It must be nice to in the year twenty twenty

1112
00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:43,000
Speaker 1: four have a job that was around in like the

1113
00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:44,840
Speaker 1: fifteen hundreds.

1114
00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:49,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, something like that, something like it's cool. I do it.

1115
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 2: I do enjoy my job though. It is really cool

1116
00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:55,840
Speaker 2: and I have fun doing it.

1117
00:58:58,360 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 1: What do you make? You make swords?

1118
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,920
Speaker 2: I've never made a sword, but I could. What I

1119
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:13,200
Speaker 2: actually make is industrial mixers. We're talking like, I mean,

1120
00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,920
Speaker 2: some of them you could live in. They're so fucking big.

1121
00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:25,680
Speaker 2: And I've made mixers for like anything from coffee to

1122
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:32,680
Speaker 2: rat poison McCormick spices, all sorts of stuff like that.

1123
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:36,800
Speaker 1: Now, at twenty seven, do you feel young or old?

1124
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:44,080
Speaker 2: I still feel pretty young, honestly. I mean I don't

1125
00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:48,160
Speaker 2: feel that old at all, like you were kind of

1126
00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:55,000
Speaker 2: saying earlier, like it's not. Yeah, I don't feel old really,

1127
00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:58,919
Speaker 2: and I wonder as I do get older and older, Well,

1128
00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:07,120
Speaker 2: I feel old maybe physically, but not mentally. Hard to say.

1129
01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:11,479
Speaker 1: It's second to my dad. Last time I saw him,

1130
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:14,960
Speaker 1: He's about sixty six or something like that, and he

1131
01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:17,680
Speaker 1: told me he remembered being my age and thinking about

1132
01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:20,200
Speaker 1: what it would be like to be sixty six and

1133
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:22,240
Speaker 1: how he could have never imagined it, and now that

1134
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:27,000
Speaker 1: he's sixty six, he feels pretty good. And I am

1135
01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:30,920
Speaker 1: inspired by that, you know how I feel. I feel

1136
01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:35,120
Speaker 1: kind of like I feel like I'm on extra credit

1137
01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:38,840
Speaker 1: mode at twenty seven. I feel like I have three

1138
01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:45,640
Speaker 1: more years to really roll some dice and fuck around

1139
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:51,520
Speaker 1: and do whatever until I turn thirty. Like I feel young,

1140
01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:53,439
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm not yet thirty, and I got

1141
01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:57,040
Speaker 1: three more years to just keep sucking it up until

1142
01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 1: we get there.

1143
01:00:57,560 --> 01:00:57,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1144
01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:01,400
Speaker 1: You know, if I plan in my life correctly, if

1145
01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:06,480
Speaker 1: I execute certain whatever things or come to certain understandings

1146
01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 1: or build certain habits, I could really, I think, have

1147
01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:13,240
Speaker 1: a better life in my thirties. I feel like I'm

1148
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:18,080
Speaker 1: gonna be reborn into some new person. That's what I'm hoping.

1149
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 2: You will become an ethereal gek at thirty most.

1150
01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 1: Likely who fucking knows, but I know, whatever it is,

1151
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:32,600
Speaker 1: it's hopefully not hopefully it's something ethereal right. Right, Well listen,

1152
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:36,560
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I just wanted to give you the opportunity.

1153
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:39,160
Speaker 1: I don't know if you called in to talk about

1154
01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:40,840
Speaker 1: anything particular.

1155
01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:46,200
Speaker 2: Oh, I mean, I have a couple things. I write

1156
01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:48,919
Speaker 2: down stuff every once in a while if I think

1157
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 2: it'd be cool to talk to you about cool.

1158
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:52,560
Speaker 1: Sure.

1159
01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:58,960
Speaker 2: Yeah. So I guess one thing is so I stop

1160
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:04,600
Speaker 2: smoking weed much lately, and that's actually part of repaying

1161
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 2: my student loan. I'm trying to cut shit out as

1162
01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:10,800
Speaker 2: much as I can so I can just throw large

1163
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:14,280
Speaker 2: sums of money at it. And a dream that I

1164
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:17,040
Speaker 2: had and there was a result of not smoking weed,

1165
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:21,800
Speaker 2: I'm having more dreams, right yep, yeah, for sure. And

1166
01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:25,760
Speaker 2: so the other night I had a dream and you

1167
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:27,240
Speaker 2: you were in my dream.

1168
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:28,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, what was your dream?

1169
01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:36,560
Speaker 2: So we were outside in the driveway of my childhood

1170
01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:40,240
Speaker 2: home and we had a dining room table set up

1171
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:42,240
Speaker 2: with a bunch of people where we were having a

1172
01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:48,919
Speaker 2: lovely dinner outside at night in my driveway and we

1173
01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:54,080
Speaker 2: and you were still wearing the gecko suit and we were

1174
01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,880
Speaker 2: we were talking and we had an emotional moment, like,

1175
01:02:57,440 --> 01:03:00,720
Speaker 2: you know, we were talking and you were telling me

1176
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:03,720
Speaker 2: something very uh and you know, I don't remember what

1177
01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:06,640
Speaker 2: the words were, but you know, there were tears, we

1178
01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:10,240
Speaker 2: were crying, we were you know, it was it was

1179
01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:12,640
Speaker 2: a beautiful moment though. At the end of the day

1180
01:03:12,680 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 2: and we we we finished up that conversation went back

1181
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:21,600
Speaker 2: to the uh, to the table to sit down, and

1182
01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:26,880
Speaker 2: then somebody sat down next to us, and he was

1183
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:30,480
Speaker 2: kind of just a guy with a comically large chin.

1184
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:34,120
Speaker 2: And I looked over at him and said, who the

1185
01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:37,600
Speaker 2: hell are you supposed to be? Jay Leno? And we

1186
01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:41,200
Speaker 2: laughed really hard. Whether or not that's actually funny, we

1187
01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:47,440
Speaker 2: laughed really hard at that, mm hmm. And then I

1188
01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:48,080
Speaker 2: woke up.

1189
01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:53,520
Speaker 1: Do you feel like, okay, haven't, now that we're talking

1190
01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:57,440
Speaker 1: on the phone in real life, is the conversation that

1191
01:03:57,480 --> 01:04:00,560
Speaker 1: we've been having anything close to the conversation that we

1192
01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 1: had in in your dreams?

1193
01:04:04,560 --> 01:04:07,600
Speaker 2: I would say, not the you know, not the emotional part,

1194
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,440
Speaker 2: you know, because we're not we're not getting too deep

1195
01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:13,240
Speaker 2: into the into the weeds that right now, you know,

1196
01:04:13,400 --> 01:04:19,200
Speaker 2: But it you, It is very much the same vibe.

1197
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:20,000
Speaker 2: I suppose.

1198
01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:23,080
Speaker 1: It sounds like you and I were like on M

1199
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:25,400
Speaker 1: D M A in this dream or something like that,

1200
01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:27,400
Speaker 1: and we were really spilling our guts to each other.

1201
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:30,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's kind of the vibe of it.

1202
01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,360
Speaker 1: Honestly, that's interesting.

1203
01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,240
Speaker 2: And this was another yeah, yeah.

1204
01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:37,920
Speaker 1: Go ahead, go ahead. I was gonna ask who else

1205
01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:40,080
Speaker 1: was at the dinner table if if there was anyone

1206
01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:41,880
Speaker 1: else there was.

1207
01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:45,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was other people, other costumed people.

1208
01:04:46,320 --> 01:04:50,760
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, so who are who are the other Who

1209

Speaker 1: were the other costumes?

1210
01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:56,840
Speaker 2: God, I don't remember. The only specific one that I

1211
01:04:56,920 --> 01:04:59,440
Speaker 2: remember is the guy who pulled up looking like the

1212
01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:02,560
Speaker 2: Crimson and Chin and Jay Leno mixed together.

1213
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,400
Speaker 1: It sounded like you, you know what? You know what

1214
01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:10,680
Speaker 1: this reminds me of? You had like a weird like

1215
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:16,840
Speaker 1: where the wild Things are adventure, but instead of big beasts,

1216
01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:20,880
Speaker 1: it's like fucking dudes who look like me in animal costumes.

1217
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:26,480
Speaker 1: You you did, you you pulled? You stop smoking weed

1218
01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:29,040
Speaker 1: and then your brain pulled a where the wild things are?

1219
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:37,600
Speaker 2: For sure? Dude. And I guess another thing I've at

1220
01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:40,240
Speaker 2: least been interested in talking to you about is.

1221
01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:46,400
Speaker 1: It's Smash Smash Brothers. Super Smash Brothers.

1222
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:47,960
Speaker 2: Yeah dude, yeah, dude.

1223
01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:53,320
Speaker 1: Some people who listen to this show may or may

1224
01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:57,840
Speaker 1: not know that. Uh I. I look, I'm not very

1225
01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:04,600
Speaker 1: good in comparisons what's out there, But I do regularly

1226
01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:12,040
Speaker 1: participate in competitive Super Smash Brothers melee tournaments, which I

1227
01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:14,440
Speaker 1: think I've been doing that since like for like a

1228
01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:17,240
Speaker 1: decade now. Yeah. I went to my first and so

1229
01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:24,360
Speaker 1: tournaments super Smash Con in twenty fifteen, go ahead.

1230
01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:26,440
Speaker 2: And so I also given some content so the people

1231
01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:31,400
Speaker 2: who don't know. Also, when someone says what Lyle just said,

1232
01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:34,320
Speaker 2: they're actually really fucking good at the game.

1233
01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:38,240
Speaker 1: Well I'm good. I'm really. Here's the thing. I can

1234
01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:42,480
Speaker 1: beat anyone who doesn't like actually play the game, but

1235
01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:45,720
Speaker 1: when it comes to people who like actually competitive to

1236
01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:47,080
Speaker 1: play the game, I kind of suck.

1237
01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:51,760
Speaker 2: Right, No, I know what you mean. And I used

1238
01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:55,680
Speaker 2: to kind of be at that level. I went to

1239
01:06:56,000 --> 01:07:01,560
Speaker 2: an actual major tournament one which one and also it

1250
01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:48,720
Speaker 1: Okay, I don't plan on places for Smash for his Ultimate, right.

1251
01:07:48,840 --> 01:07:51,000
Speaker 2: I know you're a you're a million.

1252
01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 1: You know, what's funny is where I, like, uh, really

1253
01:07:56,880 --> 01:08:00,680
Speaker 1: alienating nine of the podcast listeners by talking about a

1254
01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:03,800
Speaker 1: niche subject. But you know, I've all I there's lots

1255
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,040
Speaker 1: of times where I'm listening to a podcast and people

1256
01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 1: will start talking about like the Eagles or whatever, and

1257
01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:10,560
Speaker 1: I don't know what the fuck they're talking about. So

1258
01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:13,560
Speaker 1: it's fine, it's fine.

1259
01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:17,280
Speaker 2: But you know, also there's there's life lessons to be

1260
01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:22,639
Speaker 2: learned from from play and smash, you know, practicing something

1261
01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:26,120
Speaker 2: super hard, you know, and this is macro shit, like

1262
01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:31,439
Speaker 2: of course, like practicing l canceling is not applicable in

1263
01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:37,400
Speaker 2: real life, but like you knowing shit and huh god.

1264
01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:39,160
Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna let you. I'm gonna let you finish,

1265
01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:42,240
Speaker 1: and then I'm gonna push back against everything you're saying,

1266
01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,479
Speaker 1: but go ahead.

1267
01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:49,720
Speaker 2: No, So as far as like practicing something and you know,

1268
01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:53,439
Speaker 2: really getting into it to the point where you really

1269
01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:58,080
Speaker 2: understand it, I guess. Or here's a specific example, when

1270
01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:02,000
Speaker 2: you're practicing something the lab for for a long time

1271
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:05,880
Speaker 2: and you're doing it and then you try to do

1272
01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:10,680
Speaker 2: it in a real match and it's totally different. And

1273
01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:14,479
Speaker 2: then that first time you find where that actually fits,

1274
01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:18,240
Speaker 2: you know, in a real match, and you actually do it.

1275
01:09:18,240 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 2: It's like a religious experience.

1276
01:09:20,280 --> 01:09:24,040
Speaker 1: So here's here's my I'm gonna play Devil's Advocate to you,

1277
01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:27,599
Speaker 1: and then I'm gonna play Devil's Advocate back to my

1278
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:33,080
Speaker 1: own Devil's Advocate. All right. So yes, I've spent a

1279
01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:37,759
Speaker 1: considerable amount of time getting very good at, truly, honest

1280
01:09:37,800 --> 01:09:42,080
Speaker 1: to god, a completely useless skill, which is playing competitive

1281
01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:46,960
Speaker 1: Supersmash Brothers Melee. And it's even like, getting really good

1282
01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:51,080
Speaker 1: at a video game is a completely useless skill. It's

1283
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:53,759
Speaker 1: made even more useless by the fact that the video

1284
01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:57,519
Speaker 1: game I got really good at nobody fucking plays anymore.

1285
01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:00,360
Speaker 1: It's from two thousand and one, Like if I got

1286
01:10:00,360 --> 01:10:02,240
Speaker 1: really good at like Fortnite, and I could be like

1287
01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:07,920
Speaker 1: a popular like Fortnite streamer or like whatever League of

1288
01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:10,639
Speaker 1: Legends or dotorting and that stuff. Like if I even

1289
01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:13,280
Speaker 1: if I like like, it would be slightly better if

1290
01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,559
Speaker 1: I got really good at a game that people cared about.

1291
01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:17,880
Speaker 1: But I got good at a game that no one

1292
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:20,240
Speaker 1: gives a shit about that and I'm about about and

1293
01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:23,960
Speaker 1: I'm not even that good at it. So if you're

1294
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:28,280
Speaker 1: considering trying to learn at a place super smash Brother's

1295
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:32,559
Speaker 1: Melee at a high technical level. I strongly urge against

1296
01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:36,160
Speaker 1: it because you will waste a lot of time. Okay, Okay,

1297
01:10:36,200 --> 01:10:39,120
Speaker 1: so that's my hold on. Okay, So that so that's

1298
01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:42,719
Speaker 1: my devil's advocates everything you just said. And then here's

1299
01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:46,519
Speaker 1: my devil's advocate to what I just said, is like,

1300
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:50,640
Speaker 1: you know, sure, but like, what what else are you

1301
01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:52,400
Speaker 1: gonna do? What else you gonna do with your fucking

1302
01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:53,160
Speaker 1: time or your life?

1303
01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:53,400
Speaker 2: Right?

1304
01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:55,000
Speaker 1: Like you could sit here and go like, oh, I

1305
01:10:55,000 --> 01:11:00,160
Speaker 1: could have spent ten years learning French, but whatever where

1306
01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna spend ten years jerking off and going on

1307
01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:05,240
Speaker 1: your phone and not doing anything. So I mean, just

1308
01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:08,080
Speaker 1: you know, who gives a shit. You're gonna die, so

1309
01:11:08,280 --> 01:11:12,639
Speaker 1: just do whatever, and it's fine. That's my counterpoint to that.

1310
01:11:12,720 --> 01:11:14,559
Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess if you do if you I guess

1311
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:17,240
Speaker 1: if you spend the time learning something more like if

1312
01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:19,479
Speaker 1: you learn French, maybe you could go to France and

1313
01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:23,280
Speaker 1: immerse yourself in something and do you have a rewarding

1314
01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:29,880
Speaker 1: experience and whatnot. But usually it's not between getting good

1315
01:11:29,920 --> 01:11:33,200
Speaker 1: at competitive video games or doing something else. Usually it's

1316
01:11:33,800 --> 01:11:41,040
Speaker 1: doing something versus doing nothing and jerking off and eating food.

1317
01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:44,280
Speaker 1: Usually that's what it is. It's not. So that's why

1318
01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:48,719
Speaker 1: like opportunity cost is not as interesting to me, because

1319
01:11:48,720 --> 01:11:52,639
Speaker 1: the opportunity cost of learning a new thing, of learning

1320
01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 1: a skill, even if it's usually not between learning some

1321
01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:00,840
Speaker 1: new skill and learning some other ski ill, it's usually

1322
01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:03,080
Speaker 1: between learning a new skill and not doing anything. So

1323
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:05,519
Speaker 1: go ahead and learn whatever new skill you're gonna learn,

1324
01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:09,120
Speaker 1: even if it is truly, honest to God, absolutely useless,

1325
01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:14,519
Speaker 1: like getting better at Competitive Smash Bros. I mean, there's

1326
01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:19,479
Speaker 1: people out There's people out there like learning Gaelic or

1327
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:22,519
Speaker 1: fucking like how to speak, or there's people out there

1328
01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:29,639
Speaker 1: learning how to like speak Danish, like the no no, no,

1329
01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:32,839
Speaker 1: hold on, you gotta let me finish. These are not skilled.

1330
01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:36,000
Speaker 1: Like learning Danish and getting really good at Super Smash

1331
01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:41,479
Speaker 1: Brothers Melee are equally useful skill, not equally useful. Learning

1332
01:12:41,520 --> 01:12:46,240
Speaker 1: Danish is actually learning Danish is actually about forty percent

1333
01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:50,639
Speaker 1: more useful than getting good at competitive Super Smash Brothers Melee.

1334
01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:52,200
Speaker 1: But whatever, you're gone, you're.

1335
01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:53,919
Speaker 2: Gonna die to learn stuff.

1336
01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:56,360
Speaker 1: You know, hold on, let me finish, but you're gonna

1337
01:12:57,880 --> 01:13:02,519
Speaker 1: die no matter what. So who cares to do stuff

1338
01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:04,880
Speaker 1: or don't do stuff? Okay, what were you? What were you?

1339
01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:05,760
Speaker 1: What did you want to say?

1340
01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:10,240
Speaker 2: No, that's it's good, Like, yeah, of course, like there

1341
01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:16,040
Speaker 2: are skills you can learn that provide you with monetary

1342
01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:22,160
Speaker 2: value and and social value. But you know, learning melee

1343
01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:26,200
Speaker 2: to a really high degree is also fun in the

1344
01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:28,040
Speaker 2: same way kind of like you just said, you know,

1345
01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:30,320
Speaker 2: not that you're going to make money off of it,

1346
01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:35,200
Speaker 2: but it's it's something. It's a way to learn how

1347
01:13:35,240 --> 01:13:38,920
Speaker 2: to learn, which is kind of an interesting thing.

1348
01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:45,800
Speaker 1: I still highly highly recommend doing literally anything else. What's

1349
01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:46,439
Speaker 1: your name again?

1350
01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:50,639

01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:04,880
Speaker 1: your dreams.

1356
01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:07,240

1360
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:19,880
Speaker 2: whatever happened in my dream was just something that I

1361
01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:22,200
Speaker 2: made up in my head, you know, yeah, you know

1362
01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:23,400
Speaker 2: what is reality?

Speaker 1: Baby, Derek? I love this even if I love this.

1364
01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:30,040
Speaker 1: Even if your reality was not as good as your fantasy,

1365
01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:34,200
Speaker 1: at least your reality was fucking real and there's something

1366
01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:37,479
Speaker 1: to be appreciated, right man, I like that. I like that, Derek.

1367
01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:42,519
Speaker 1: Thanks for talking to me about random bullshit for twenty minutes.

1368
01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:47,000
Speaker 1: Is there anything else that you wanted? Is there anything

1369
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:49,479
Speaker 1: else a that you wanted out of this conversation that

1370
01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:52,840
Speaker 1: maybe we didn't have, or be that you wanted to

1371
01:14:52,840 --> 01:14:54,439
Speaker 1: say to the people of the computer before we go.

1372
01:14:56,040 --> 01:14:59,880
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, there is one other thing that's kind

1373
01:14:59,920 --> 01:15:03,320
Speaker 2: of interesting that I'd like talk about, and that is

1374
01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:10,679
Speaker 2: the fact that I have a medium scale glass dildo

1375
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:15,240
Speaker 2: making operation that is going on in my garage.

1376
01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:19,840
Speaker 1: Why did you get into making glass dildos?

1377
01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:25,880
Speaker 2: So, my buddy he worked for a guy making these

1378
01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:33,320
Speaker 2: glass dildos, right, and his boss, you know, gave up

1379
01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:37,040
Speaker 2: the dildo crafting business. He was, you know, throwing in

1380
01:15:37,120 --> 01:15:42,720
Speaker 2: the towel. And he offered my friend, He's like, you

1381
01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:46,040
Speaker 2: can take this, you can take the dildo business and

1382
01:15:46,080 --> 01:15:48,880
Speaker 2: you can be the new dildo guy if you want.

1383
01:15:49,439 --> 01:15:54,400
Speaker 2: And he said, hell yeah, And I'm into you know,

1384
01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:57,559
Speaker 2: glass stuff and everything like that. And I had the space,

1385
01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:02,200
Speaker 2: you know, to do it. So he asked me, He's like, so, hey,

1386
01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:06,800
Speaker 2: can I like do this out of your garage? And

1387
01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:10,920
Speaker 2: I was like absolutely, And so now that's that's what's

1388
01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:13,840
Speaker 2: going on out there. But we also we have fun too,

1389
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:16,599
Speaker 2: see that the dildos are what bring in the money

1390
01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:20,200
Speaker 2: for him, but we also like to make marbles and

1391
01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:24,560
Speaker 2: little little trinkets and shit like that.

1392
01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:28,559
Speaker 1: That's really cute. You're making big glass cocks and tiny

1393
01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:34,719
Speaker 1: marble balls. Absolutely, you have an interesting life, Derek.

1394
01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:38,920
Speaker 2: Well, thank you. I think you have an interesting life

1395
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:39,439
Speaker 2: as well.

1396
01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:42,920
Speaker 1: Just a couple of twenty seven year olds who hopefully

1397
01:16:43,800 --> 01:16:47,960
Speaker 1: don't shoot their face off with a shotgun like that guy.

1398
01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:53,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, that one guy who shot hisself with the shotgun.

1399
01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:55,800
