I'm gonna have to ponder on this name. I. I really got it, honestly.
B
Bob it and you know, send you. When you think of it, I'll send you a birth certificate. They come with like a official Matt Robertson seal of approval. Gold embossed stamp. And there's a seal on the stamp. So it's a seal of approval.
A
Really?
B
Yeah.
C
I was like, I gotta.
A
Hi. Dude. No, a golden seal. Because it's a seal. Oh, my God. Perfect, Perfect, Perfect, Perfect. What's up, everybody? Welcome back to the Dope as usual podcast. My name is Thomas, Dopa, Jola, whatever you want to call me. This is my co host, Marty o'. Neill.
C
What's up, guys?
A
Sup? Feels very odd. Like we haven't been here in a while. We haven't had a solo in what, two months?
C
It's been a minute.
A
It's almost April. Probably January feels a little different. I don't know. I feel like we need to do these every three weeks just to just even if we can't or even we don't have an episode ready to go. I don't know. We've had back to back guests, guys, so welcome back. How are you doing? Appreciate you. First off, thank you Spotify, for not bearing us. We appreciate you, Spotify. Every single video you see here on YouTube is times 10 on Spotify.

Anyway, tomorrow's the 1st of April. Okay, guys. Oh, if this comes out Tuesday, tomorrow, April 1st, I will be at the Long Beach Laugh Factory. Not sure what time yet. They haven't gave me the time, but I'll be performing the Long Beach Laugh Factory. Never been there before. On April 1st. Wednesday, which is tomorrow from this episode. Sick.

C
You're really doing it. We took it from an idea. You're really out there. Doing it now. You're even the shows that you don't see that we're not like advertising, like, you're out there getting reps in.
A
Yes, sir. So it's awesome. So super stoked. About to meet up with Willie this weekend to write for a little bit. He wants to write on some. He wants to write new shift. I've never sat down with a comedian and wrote for a period of time, so it's going to be good practice for me. I'm excited. Yeah. So, yes. Tomorrow, April 1st, lobby's live factory. Let's move on, guys. My first topic that I want to bring up is most people. Not. Yeah, most people on this podcast channel. You probably found me through the do channel. Like, yo, you started a podcast, came here. The other like 40% of people found us after, I think. So if you're new and you don't watch my Dopa Joel channel, that's totally cool. I talked about it recently, Marty, in a meeting. But a couple years ago, you know, YouTube deleted me at a 9.95amillion. About to hit a million the night of. It took like a month. They never responded. No strikes, no nothing. Marty used the race card, which is like the only last thing we could think of. Like, what is it? Is it that.
C
How funny, me pulling the race card. Come on.
A
For me, on your behalf. And like, like what? Hours later, the page was back.
C
That was interesting.
A
Yeah. But it had a restriction on it and it said, we'll go off in 90 days. It took three and a half years to go off. It's. It just kept pushing it. 90 days. 90 days. 90 days.90 days. So ever since I got the channel back a couple years ago, guys, I have been. The next video I posted had like 10 of the traffic I normally get. And I thought, oh, maybe it's just the first one back. No, YouTube has. They know what they did to me. But it's all good. So the reason I'm bringing that up, guys, this past year, since January 1st, I've tried to do three videos a week, which is 12 videos a month. Right. We've done that for two solid months. A lot of filming, a lot of ideas, a lot of editing, a lot of planning. Like, oh, those three are done. Cool. Up ahead, get the clips. You have the thumbnails, you have the reels. Are you ready to go the time upload. Okay. We'll have a video that day. Make sure I upload the day before. Trying to be more like a professional, you know, like next week we have this in two weeks, we have this. So this is where we're at, guys. I have just yesterday, just finished the eighth week of doing three videos a week. And I'll just be transparent. That sucks. It is so expensive. I didn't. I didn't think it would add up so fast. And also the reason I'm doing more videos, because people are like, hey, man, you do a lot of ads now. What's going on? Like, well, I do eight videos a week or a month. Like, well, if two of them are an ad and maybe one more might be an ad, Almost half the videos. It's not really an ad. I'm trying stuff. Back when I did trying stizzy pods in 2018, I just tried a bunch of stizzy pods and nobody batted an eye at it. Nobody said, this is an ad. I was just reviewing. Just like I'm reviewing now. And people, I don't know, I don't know what the change is, but now people are like, hey, this is a commercial. Like, dog, I'm just trying to. All right, check out this brandless weed that you will never know what it is. You'll never be able to try it. And this is not. You see what I'm saying? That's like somebody doing iPhone or doing electronic reviews online and they go, this is an ad. Like, it's a review. It's the whole point. It's the product. But they just cover the product. They didn't let you know what it was. They never showed you what brand it was. Like, well, now how would I buy it? You did the review. I want to try it now. That's the whole point. So I try to alleviate that by, hey, how about I do 12 videos and if four of them or have a brand in it, dude, you have eight videos a month extra with no brand, no nothing. Just back to YouTube. I think that evened it out, right? It's a lot of content, three times a week. Shit's not sustainable, guys. I'll let you know right now there's a reason why YouTubers don't do three videos a week. You know, a Casey NASDAQ guy did it, but they were like four minutes long or David Dobrik did it. But there was. There were less than five minute videos. We're filming three hours editing down. Like, it's just. It's absurd, guys. So starting in April, two videos a week. It just doesn't make sense to me. It's absurd. I'm sitting here for three hours a week at least, chat, doing the chat. It's like, yeah, that's cool. But there's also two podcasts. Every day I'm on the chat for like an hour and a half a day, which a lot of people like. It's your job. No, it's not my job. It's all extra shit. I don't have to be in the chat. I want to be in the chat. That's the point. Like, if I didn't do the chat, the live chat, oh, man, I could do way more. I have to. I have to be home. I have to be there. I have to do the chat. I have to make sure I'm doing. Dude, it is. Is not easy, especially running all this other stuff and then trying to film. How can I film if I'm doing this? It's aggravating. It's just. I like doing the chat. That's why I do it. So the reason I'm saying that is we're going to Mondays and Thursdays. Okay? So Monday you get a dope shows video. Tuesday you have the podcast.
B
We.
A
Wednesday we have a break. All right, A break to go outside. Thursday we have do Yola channel video again. And then Friday, unrestricted on the podcast channel. So I mean on the podcast website. So that's it. It's a little update.
C
We want to focus on quality, too. You don't want to be just kicking out videos just for the sake of kicking.
A
Sometimes I'm like, that's a good video. That's a good idea. When I'm like, is it? Or am I just need a slot?
C
Yeah, that's a horrible feeling.
A
I did that last week. Pick that one. Yeah, put that in there. I didn't even get to preview it because I was. I was filming and then I had Henry upload it. I didn't even watch my own video.
C
Damn.
A
No, I didn't preview it and I didn't watch it live.
C
Is there a world where you could do these reviews live?
A
I mean, they'd be three hours long because you remember the videos are 25 minutes after, like three hours. So all that down times, me coughing, me ranting, me ranting, me ranting, cleaning nails, cleaning nails, cleaning nails, coughing, answering five calls.
C
No, I know.
B
Yeah.
C
I'm just people as opposed. I'm saying it might be more realistic. Like, you just change up the format so there's no editing.
A
Be a cool day.
C
People might not mind. Maybe they will.
A
I don't know.
C
It's a lot of coughing. But that's what you're doing. I mean, what the.
A
Yeah. So that's, that's pretty much where I'm at right now, dude.
B
Sorry.
C
You tried it. You push yourself. You challenge yourself.
A
Yeah, I did 24 videos in 60 days.
C
You are locked in on a schedule like never before and trying to be very like itemized and thinking ahead of time.
A
But I know a lot of people are like, dude, just do it. We need content. It's so expensive. That's really all it is. Paying for filming and paying for editing and, and we don't get paid off YouTube. It is, is. It's a red situation. You know what I mean? Like ready real quick. Your thing you like to do, but also kind of is your job, but you don't get paid for it all the time. Sometimes you do get paid for it. Hopefully your businesses do good off the videos so it kind of evens out. But if I'm paying like almost a thousand or more every video, I could have bought a car since January. I haven't had any ads since January. I'm in the red. I'm in the red fully every time. Every single time. That's why I put a push trees ad in yesterday's video. Hopefully people buy some clothes because it's a free video. And you guys gotta remember I'm paying for all the product that I'm review. Like I'm, I'm buying this. The thousand dollar shopping spree got age restricted. Got 20,000 views in a day. That's up. I paid $11,000 for that stuff too. And then to film it and then to edit it and then the time to upload it and then time to do all the stuff and then to do all the comments. I'm working minimum wage right now for, for YouTube.
C
You push trees ads and all this. I feel like dam or something. Like how Tommy G does this? You ever notice how he does it?
A
I know. I just, just don't want to push too many ads on people. It's just.
C
That's true.
A
Then again, like you almost. That's how I feel right now. Like, dude, I'm doing this because I like it. But that's so much money that's up and that's the least amount of money I feel like I've been spending on YouTube the past three, four years we spent. So I mean, if I, if I wanted to, I could have kept it all. That would have been sick. To keep all of it. We're back. We're still doing little camera. No like rant, like, you know, cool editing. Damn, I could save myself like 90 and then I watch other Wetubers and they throw an ad in there mid video as they're doing something and they come right back. That cost nothing and they kept all the money for it. And there's no editing. Like, I watched an Eric Kahn video. He has such a good formula. Let me film myself, let me do the ad in the. In the video, and I can edit this in 30 minutes. One of the videos the other day took 4:40. One hour edit.
C
So much.
A
Okay, you. It was 10 bucks an hour. Not bad. It's not $10 an hour. So I'm sitting here going spend racks on editing for a free video that gets age restricted. Let me do it three times this week, Every week, for every week, all day, and repeat. Oh, dude, I don't know. I woke up one day, I went, how. How to. How do I function? It's not gonna work. And it's like basically taking a whole. All the profit off of two companies, just wiping it clean to get age restricted on the lowest views I've ever seen. I don't know. Anyway, I'm just trying to tell you guys where my head's at. Being transparent. That's where we are. Let's move on to something else because this is ridiculous. Ready? Got a little story I want us. I want Sean to come tell this story himself. So the other day, Sean, my friend Sean Solo, grand theft auto. Franklin, right? He doesn't live far from me at all. He's. He's awesome. He hit me up and said, hey, man, do you have any more edibles or anything? Because, you know, he's been dabbling a little bit. Like, yeah, I supply this full stocked up with pens and anything. Like, yeah, Franklin, I'll give you weed. And of course you gave me years and years of entertainment, man. I got you. So I go to drop off, or he comes by to drop to pick up the stuff at my house, right? Comes by, he's like, oh, man, I can see something's off my. Were you just sick or something? He goes, man, it's in the hospital last night. I'm like, are you okay? He goes, your pens. And I went. My heart sank. Like, did something happen? Like, did something slip through and you got sick? What do you mean you went to the hospital? He goes, dude, I don't know what happened, but, like, it broken. Like I sucked it through. I'm thinking, no, my pen malfunctioned and got you sick. Then he explained it to me, and I felt 10 times better. Sometimes pens clog. If you leave them sideways, you Know, I mean, like, in the heat, they get liquid, and then once you got the heat, they solidify, sometimes get clogged. What you do with a vape pen, you go. And you hit it a few times hard, and it'll go. And you hear a little crack. And when that little crack, that means that the, like, the. Finally heated through the oil, and now it's clear. It's a little.
C
It's my specialty, especially.
A
Right? So you. Well, Sean's not a big smoker, right? He's not a huge smoker. So he's like, man, it was kind of clogs. I didn't know what to do. I don't want to bug him. Like, dude, just call me, because I don't want to bug. So I broke it open. And in my head, like, yo, those aren't supposed to be open this one time closed. Once I seal, they're sealed unless you break it. So my. Keep telling me. And he goes, so, like, I. I scraped. I scraped it out. I scraped it out. He said, yeah, to unclog it. Keep going because. Yeah, put it back in. Like, how am I. How you put it? You put it back in. He goes, yeah. And I clapped it back on. Like, I don't think he knows he broke that. You can't unseal him. Anyway. Goes. So I went to hit it, and since it broke, it just. And I drank all of it. He drank thc. Like, concentrated thc. You know how high you get off ripping a pen three times? Like, oh, damn, that's 0.000.0001. That just burned. How many rips you have a pan? Like a thousand. Now imagine 400 hits. He's into his mouth real quick, right? And he's like, I drank some of it. So I'm trying to scrape it out of my mouth. It's all over my teeth. Like, yeah, boy, it's oil. It's gonna be sticky. And he goes. I just chill. I'm like, all right, cool. He's like, two hours later, I start hearing my heartbeat, and I feel like I'm moving slow. And I forgot that I hit the pen. The pen happened. And he's like. And then I started calling for my wife. He's like, I thought I was done. I thought I was having a heart attack. I thought I was dead. And I'm sitting here in my garage looking at him like, dude, no. He's like, my wife came in. My speech was all slurred because I was. I was like, oh, I'm having a stroke. No, he's like, I don't feel nothing. But like he's. My wife is like, you're slurring your speech. Go to the hospital. He went straight to the hospital. Hooked him up to all the EKG machines. He said. He said he had all these pads hooked to him. They're running blood tests. He's in the emergency room. His wife's there all freaking out and he's all slow, slurring his speech like, oh, he's having a stroke. And hey, everything's coming back fine. And he's like, an hour later, the doctor's like, so what happened? He's like. And I told him what happened because there it is. Go home. So I had a fucking full panic attack because it's like. It's like he took a 500 milligram edible. He drank point four of a gram. A thousand milligrams is a gram, basically. Damn. I once took a RSO pill. We talked about the story. A full gram rso. That's like almost a three weeks worth. Popped it. I felt what he felt before. That's it.
C
I would love the.600 is my limit of keeping it together.
A
Yeah, I would love for him to come tell that story at story time. Cuz it's ridiculous, man. Cuz I saw the way he's walking, like, are you okay? He's like, ah, man.
C
Last night he was still up.
A
Yeah, he said he woke up just drowsy, still, like all like tired, like, yeah, man. Can't drink oil. That's insane. So this whole. The whole half the story he didn't mention until that he broke it off until after he said he got home. So the whole time I'm sitting here, like, I just almost. Oh, no. Oh, God, what did I do? And then he's like, no, no, I broke it open. Go. Oh. So the whole time sitting there feeling like an dude. That's it. Oh. And then Franklin just. He's like, hey, man, you want this ebike? So now Rocco's been riding around our neighborhood on the ebike like crazy. That F put almost 50 miles on that already. Yeah, he gave us like a full ebike. He's like, take it home. It's in my garage. Get it out of here. My thanks. Thanks, Sean, for the trade. Here's some drugs. You want this E bike, kids? But yeah, I'll give it to the younger one.
C
Cut back to you like 14, spawning on a little bike on Grove Street. And.
A
Come on, that's what Rocco said. If you told me 10 years ago, that Frankie would have gave me an E bike I could ride around the neighborhood. I would have called you a liar. Yeah, I get it now. Rocco keeps in his trunk and just takes off places. It's kind of cool. Folds up. Sick. Okay, that was a ridiculous story. So I want to mention this, guys, and we're going to get into this. We don't do this often. Only once, I think, when Mozzy came and we went to the pizza spot. Bootleg Kev's. I don't think we've ever done this again. So a cutaway. We're about to do a cutaway for you guys. Let me start to explain this right now. Four months ago, I went to Denver, Colorado, to meet up with Matt Robertson. He has a podcast. Robertson Stash filmed. Incredible. It looks so nice. It's what I imagine Vlad looks like when he's interviewing people. You never see Vlad, but I imagine, like, lit darkly and, like, mysterious. I really love the.
B
The look.
A
Anyway, I went to Colorado, met up with him to do his podcast, and in the podcast, we're gonna talk about my interest, blah, blah. It's a podcast, but at the end, we're going to talk about, like, my interest because he makes some of the coolest glass you've ever seen. You ever seen the giraffes, the cows, the rams, the goats, the super sick ones? That's Matt Robertson. That's Robertson class. So we talked about everything and said, hey, man, I'm going to do this, sketch it when you leave. I'll come in a couple months and drop you off the piece at your studio. So what we're going to do right now is cut away. Matt came the other day. All right? Matt came the other day, and we busted the rig in, but we didn't do it on the show, but I wanted to do it here. So what we did is we talked to Matt for like 20 minutes, and he has the best Adam Sandler story ever, and I need him to share it with you. So what we're going to do is we're going to cut away. Me and Matt were sitting here, tell his Adam Sandler story, and bust in the custom proper papers Riggy made me. It is badass. I don't have. I don't really want to travel with that. So you'll see it right now. It's at the same table, different shirt look last week. All right, so nothing. Nothing changed. So we're going to show that. Show the ripping real quick. We don't really show too many rigs on Here, honestly. So I'm kind of excited. And then we'll come back to the show right here. So we're going to cut away for a couple minutes. Just want to let you guys know. And yeah, it's like the first time, so I just want to explain it to you. So this is last week with Matt Robertson from Robertson Stash, dropping off the custom proper papers rig. What's up, guys? Here it is. We've been talking about this for a couple months. Remember when I went to Colorado, I said, I'm going to Robertson Stash, the podcast with Matt Robertson. Well, it's finally here. It's been three months. I didn't think it had been. It's been three solid months. And it flew by. We talked about it. Remember the world's smallest bong? That when it was signed, everything. Guys, so Matt, I told you he's going to come by and show us the rig, drop it off. But I wanted to have him on here and talk for a minute, guys. But also, guys, I want to take some rips. The first rips ever on this custom piece. Matt Robertson came all the way from Colorado to come hang out with us for a minute. Thanks for being here.
B
Yeah, man, thanks for having me.
A
Appreciate you, dude. But for everyone out there, real quick, your podcast, please tell us about it.
B
Yeah, it's called the Robertson Stash. It's my new little passion project. I love it, dude. I love talking to interesting people on there.
A
We got all walks of life, too.
B
Yeah, we got a lot of artists, but we got mostly glassblowers. Then we'll have a variety guest, every other guest. So we have like professional motocross riders, professional DJs, comedians, all sorts of UFC fighters. UFC fighters? Yeah, Gaethje was on there.
A
You have a very random variety of friends. Like, you're like, the glass, we penetrate so much that you don't realize it.
B
Yeah, I was just thinking that like cannabis and glass, it really.
A
I mean, those go together, but it spreads, so. Oh, man.
B
Yeah. Yeah. Like, when you're into it, when you
A
showed me how many guests you've had over the guest Mike, there's an actors, ufc, fighters, there's glassblowers, there's people, there's wee people on here. It's a very. It's. It's cool. And if you guys remember, I have. I have the vlog all put together. So when this all drops, you'll see the behind the scenes of everything I filmed. Okay, so when this all comes Together, the DOPA's YOLO channel has everything. All right? So actually, here's the thumbnail. Bam. Dope. As Yellow channel has this entire vlog from three months ago to now. A piece of this and then reviewing the actual piece. It's like a documentary, dude. So before we break this down, I want to. Everybody out there that wants to hear stories.
B
Dude, we did a four and a half hour podcast. That was great.
A
You know what I mean? We did four and a half hours. Not because I had four and a half hours of shit to talk about, because you had shit to talk about too. You have a lot of stories and a lot of fun interests and shit. And the thing that I brought back immediately and told my wife was like, hey, you'll never guess what happened. Can you please tell us your Adam Sandler last story? Because it's my.
B
Well, you know, that's actually like, a really pivotal moment in my life, because when I was 18, I was making bongs in my ceramics class. My. My ceramics teacher would allow me to make bongs.
A
Canada's different.
B
Well, she wouldn't allow the other kids, actually, but she saw that I could sculpt really well, so she just let me do my thing. She said, don't worry about what Matt's doing. And, like, I would be getting into concerts. I'd make the band a bong, and I'd get in, you know.
A
Oh, you tell me that.
B
Cool, dude. And then, so I was doing that for a little bit, and then I had a friend who worked for Happy Madison Productions. He's like, can you make me a bong About Sandler's head? I'm pitching him this movie. I was like, sure. I didn't think it would go there or anything. He paid me the money.
A
So you sculpted this?
B
I sculpted it. And I can send you a pic or whatever, but it's a ceramic head. I got the. I got the blueprints from Eight Crazy Nights.
A
I knew you were gonna use that. Why did I know?
B
And that's all I saw.
A
Head.
B
He's smoking a pipe, and then the hair kind of turns into the mouthpiece part. But, you know, like, probably like a month later, my buddy's like, hey, go to Adam Sandler.com right now. And if. When you go to Adam Sandler.com, it was the front page, was my bong on his page? So, you know, I was 18 years old, and when you go to Adam Sandler.com, it was my piece there. And that was just like anybody who kind of doubted me or even myself if I had doubts I would just, like, say, go to adamsandler.com. that's my. That's my piece. And it kind of, you know, it
A
kind of kicked off, like, inspiration that you could do it.
B
But then I went to school for animation, and I didn't see glass at all at this time. I just thought, like, animation would be, like a. Like a safe work for Disney and stuff. And I was just hanging around the campus, and I saw them blowing glass for the first time, and I was, like, just mesmerized. And I had a glass. Yeah. And I switched my major and I just took the glass program with no experience. And then I.
A
You making all this? Are you serious?
B
I did art for three years. Like, and then I go into the school.
A
Tell me any of this.
B
Yeah, well, this is.
A
We were high as hit again.
B
But, you know, I go to the school when I signed up for glass, and I'm walking in there, I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna make so many bongs in here. I see this. This lady, you know, I thought she was maybe a student there, and I go, yeah, I just sold a bong to Adam Sandler. I'm gonna, like, make so many bongs in here. And then she grabs me and she throws me up against the lockers, and she's like, if you ever say bong again, you're kicked out of this program. I'm the head of this program, so.
A
She was. She's assaulted you?
B
What?
A
Well, she.
B
Yeah, I mean, back then, dude, 20 years ago, like, 25. Get away with things. It was all right. We were cool. She got actually.
A
What happened with the Canadian. Nice. Niceness.
B
She was from Seattle.
A
Oh, you. She was American.
C
Yeah, she was American.
B
And she actually left. I'm not, you know, I don't want to say anything, but she didn't make it through. And the whole.
A
She's dead, but she. I just want to say it.
B
But I murdered her anyway. So during school, I didn't make any bongs or pipes or anything. And then when I got out of school, I moved to Eugene, Oregon. And that's. I didn't really realize that that's the Mecca of pipes. And that's where I learned. With my already learned skills. I got into, like, boro.
A
So you can draw your ass off because you drew some sick shit in front of me.
B
I used to draw. I used to draw that. We were just watching that footage, and that's terrible for me.
A
Was it. It was legible.
B
I could draw, like, what I see. But you have to practice it. I Think and if you don't use it, you kind of lose it a little bit.
A
But for any medium, you're picking up the medium of glass. But how.
B
How do you mean?
A
How do you. You look at and go, oh, that's really cool. I can draw.
B
No, you don't transfer over. The thing that was going through my head was I. I knew I wouldn't get bored of that. Like, I thought, like drawing to the drawing Mickey Mouse or Disney or whatever forever. I just thought that. And it still is. Like I learn every day. It's all like. People are making up new techniques and styles all the time. So it's. Yeah, it's a really awesome thing. You have to respect the medium big time. I've seen some incredible things, like arms
A
that go over like dab rigs that are like a piece of it. Oh, yeah, dude, I saw today the Hoobs.
B
Yeah, Hobbs. Yeah.
A
Hoops.
B
Hoops. I was just golfing with him earlier.
A
Oh, okay. Is he. When they made the Terminator.
B
Yeah, he made the Term.
A
Oh, I just saw that today.
B
It's a kiln buster, bro. He made the Lamborghini. Have you seen the Lamborghini?
A
I saw like. I saw the Bumblebee.
B
Bumblebee. Another level, right? No, it's a. It was the kiln bus. It was. It was like Iron man, but the like, big Iron Man. Do you know like the.
A
Oh, I know what you mean. I didn't see this. I haven't seen.
B
Oh, it's. It's a mil. It's a crazy piece, dude. It's this big. Anyways, he has a whole team of people that helps him out and they're all dialed in.
A
They're all assembling the like, Power Rangers.
B
This is like groundbreaking. I mean, he's about to tour all these pieces around the country at museums right now.
A
It's class art, man.
B
Yeah, it's. I mean, it's beyond its time right now. What he's doing. It's amazing.
A
Well, nice, dude. And when does. Hold on. When does Robert's Dash drop? It's already out. No, what day?
B
Every Wednesday. Every Wednesday? Yeah, every Wednesday. YouTube, all platforms. We were. We got video on Spotify now, thanks to you.
A
Let's go, dude.
B
And I appreciate the way to go.
A
Of course, dude.
B
Been really. It's the grateful with your.
A
We went through so much knowledge. We went through so much stuff like. Oh, I wish we would have known. Yeah, why not say it, huh? It's like seeing somebody hit a pothole. Like, I saw you. I knew you're gonna hit it. But I didn't say anything. You're a piece of dude, you know?
B
That's very helpful. Thank you.
A
Yeah, no, like I said, anytime, anytime.
B
But I know you like the small pieces. I wanted to show you this little one I brought in too, because you might get a kick out of it. But it's probably one of the tiniest little giraffes I've ever made. And it's a 10 mil.
A
Okay, hold on, Rocco. Guys, we're filming this for the Dobergiolo channel also. You can come in and film it. This is heavy as hell.
B
It heavy.
A
I mean, for. For being so small.
B
I feel like it's so light.
A
Well, I mean, you. You made this. This is incredible, dude.
B
Oh, thank you.
A
Can you show. Can you show the camera and explain it?
B
Yeah, no, it's just, you know, this is a tiny.
A
This is one of my, like, car rigs.
B
Yeah, it's a little to pocket rig. Really, dude. But I would never put. This is probably one of the smallest 10 mil giraffes in this style that I've made. Think I made one a little smaller, that had a 5 mil, but, you know, that's incredible. And what's.
A
What's that texture called for everyone out there?
B
This is sandblasted.
A
It's sand. Okay, so it's sandblasted, but then we
B
keep the eyes all shiny, and that's what's the shine.
A
You just don't sandblast and you just don't sandblast. The differences are put, like a little
B
bit of glue or like, resist over the eyes and then sandblast the whole thing. Then you peel it off.
A
Oh, okay. So the first time I ever really saw stuff like this was the.
B
Is it mueller like the guy.
A
Yeah.
B
With the button eyes. Yeah. Oh, the little dolls.
A
Yeah. Oh, my God. I've never felt that, dude.
B
I'll still smell it. Fifteen years ago, dude.
A
Now I get it. Now I understand why this is so important. It's art. And the fact that you can do.
B
Where's it at? Oh, yeah. Put a little banger.
A
No, that's cool, dude. Hold on. Let's see real quick. I'm not gonna hit it.
B
That was a 45, but still. Yeah, if you had a 9.
A
If I had a 90 still, this
B
is a little ripper. If you had like the, you know, the peak or something, you could just pop that in there or whatever.
A
Oh, yeah, True. But okay. When did you make this?
B
That's probably like last week sometime.
A
Eyes are insane, man.
B
Dude, y.
A
Do you ever make people. Can you make, like, characters, human faces? Not even so much the face, but cartoon style. I mean, like some anime.
B
Yeah, like if. If you can draw it, you can make it. That's what my. One of my teachers told me in school too. He's like, if you can draw it to scale with all the parts, you can make it in glass.
A
Eventually you get a. I'm just thinking all. He's been getting me on anime lately, so I've been watching actual anime.
B
I'm just thinking of all the cool you can make, but a glass rig.
A
Oh, damn, dude. Be able to create something is so cool.
B
I enjoy it. Yeah.
A
I enjoy the power. I'm super. Dude, that's a giraffe face. Come on, man.
B
Yep.
A
God, I wish I could do something.
B
Just before we. Before we bust out the other one. I'll just show you this other little one. This is the most recent piece I made. Just a little goat there too.
A
An evil ass. That's Shavo goat. That's System of a Down Shavo beard. Look at that dude.
B
Does he got a hairband on his beard?
A
Yes.
B
Oh, yes. There you go.
A
You put the rubber band on.
B
Oh, yeah.
A
Yo, this is hard. It's see through, though. What's the difference?
B
Well, this is opaque glass, and then that's transparent.
A
There's only difference on.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
How much would, like, does this go for? Like this right now?
B
Somebody like.
A
Oh, I got it for the top dog.
B
Retail like 4K.
A
Okay, cool.
B
Because that one has. It's a little more of a simpler color and. Yeah, about 4K.
A
Oh, yeah, that's hard, dude.
B
I like the transparent ones because when it's filled with water, you can see it all chugging there.
A
Yeah, that's the only thing about those.
B
You can't see the water bubble, but then they don't look as dirty as Quick.
A
True. You can see the. You see the line here? No, that's hard, dude. Yeah. What color would this be?
B
That is called Eastern gray. Wink, wink. No, sometimes I'll blend some of the eastern colors. We don't say China.
A
Oh, I like that. I like that you said China. I say Eastern.
B
But you know what? That color is so good. And when you blend it with some American colors, it works so good. You get these custom colors and like,
A
you get a really good baseball player. Chinese and an American some color. You get a. You get. What's the kid for the. Oh, no, he's really Japanese. Anyway, enough with that, thank you. All right.
B
And this is the yeah.
A
Set.
B
That's a little set. Maybe we could put in that slurper when we hit this thing.
A
That's hard.
B
Yeah. I just start making these little pillars go in there. Pearls. Say Robertson. Damn.
A
Damn. It's so meticulous, bro. It's so ridiculous. I don't. I would just. The second earlier, I tried to film some voice stuff for about 20 minutes and realized never press record with. So I didn't lose my mind. As went, today's not the day. I'm gonna turn this all off. And I just came here.
B
Yeah.
A
And I was like, I'm done. I'm gonna get pissed and I'm done. But I couldn't imagine, like, I'm done. I would lose my mind.
B
Gotta try it, man. You might like it. You might get addicted to it. It's quite satisfying melting a solid to a liquid.
A
Oh, yeah.
B
It's a super heated liquid glass.
A
So. Real quick, could you make dabbers out of this stuff?
B
Like dabbers?
A
Yeah, like a pencil that looks like this. Yeah, that'd be fun.
B
Yeah, I used to make some dabbers
A
a long time ago, but I don't see as many.
B
It's like everyone likes titanium ones, right?
A
Oh, 100.
B
Like a hot one.
A
But it matches.
B
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I could definitely get you one of those in the future. Sick.
A
Okay, so.
B
Okay, are you ready? Are you ready?
A
I'm ready. All right.
B
You said you wanted something that wasn't going to be tippy. Yes. Right.
A
You got tippy.
B
Tippy. I like that. You got your new paper company coming out or. It's already out. It's everywhere. I love those papers, by the way. The whole box, dude. But I like them because. Christ, I thought I was kind of like, oh, the whole box and. Yeah, but I like them cuz I. Oh, wait.
A
I sent you a box. Not a box of 50. You went through a box of 50?
B
Well, it was. It wasn't packed tight. It was like.
A
It was. It's the gift box. Yeah. Oh, I'll get you actual box. I'm like, dude, you smoke just 50 times?
B
32 in three months. I like them because. Yeah, for rolling inside out or like with the glues on the outside. Yeah, you lick them. I feel like they work better than a lot.
A
A lot of other ones. We don't say anything. Just say a lot of other ones. There we go.
B
But yeah, so we got that. And yeah, so I'm excited, dude. Are you ready?
A
I am. And we brought everything to rip this.
B
All right, let's See what we got
A
here and feel free. Robert, you can come in, block the
B
camera if you need to. Whatever you need. Oh, I didn't bring it.
A
That was not in here.
B
Horrible.
A
One time I forgot a ten pack.
B
All right.
A
When I was supposed to bring a 10 pack. And that broke my heart.
B
Oh, little giraffe rolling a joint, about to lick it shut. These guys little tail cap. He's just sitting at the park. You can put him in a set.
A
Oh, this is not. This is way different than what I. What I thought I saw you post. This is so sick. Wait, what's the, what's, what's the. What's the tail thing?
B
Well, this is where we put the banger. This is just for when you don't.
A
Oh, just when you don't have a banger in it.
B
Yeah, for display, so. And it also could be a dabber, actually, if you.
A
You know, honestly, it's.
B
It's the dabber. It could be a dab.
C
No, but yeah, dude.
A
So sick. I love the shine to it, dude. Yeah, I really like the shine. Almost better than this. Oh, good.
B
Oh, good. Because I was hesitant. I was kind of like on the fence about sandblasting it, but like, I just didn't know what this would look like.
A
Oh, the tongue and face.
B
Just. The joint is like a little hard to mask off, but yeah, dude, I like it. I like the. He's just a little. He's about to go.
A
He's a little guy. He's a little flexible. Dude.
B
Smoke dabs out of him.
A
I love this. What is it like the piece of the. Oh, the whip of the tail.
B
Yeah, like the little.
A
Oh, like in real life. What's this?
B
Those are the ossicones of a giraffe. That's what it's called. Yeah, it's part of their skull. It's the only, like, animal born with their horns.
A
But it's like.
B
Oh, I leave it like a little bit. Not melted in, just to kind of have that hairy feel.
A
Oh, roughish.
B
Yeah, like. Oh, you got texture. Teeth. Yeah, dude. No teeth.
A
These don't have. Okay, see, look, this guy, he's got teeth. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. This is insane, dude.
B
Sick.
A
Oh, he's not going to fall. Oh, we're going to. We're going to. We're going to rip him right now.
B
Oh, hell yeah.
C
No.
A
Yeah, dude, this came to life. Very, very cool.
B
Yeah, I'm happy with it. I like it.
A
Look at this. Oh, you can't see it. Well, you can see on this camera. I'm burnt. Sorry. You never have a guy walking around. This is incredible. Dude, his eyes are sick.
B
Yeah. Maybe if you like displayed it on like, you know, little fake grass or something or with a tree.
A
The dad man of fake grass is like, great idea. Or a little piece of Astroturf on my desk.
B
Astroturf. Yeah. Yeah.
A
Oh, that's so fun.
B
Cool.
A
No. Where's his dick? No, I'm kidding. I'm grabbing it. Yo, this is sick. This one gotta have skills to roll with his fucking hooves.
B
Yeah, dude.
A
I like the purple tongue. It really added to it.
B
Yeah, they have purple tongues. Giraffes.
A
Here I am with the education system of America.
B
Yeah.
A
And he's over here.
B
Would you call these ossicones?
A
No person in America knows what that means. So shout out to Canada.
B
Yeah, that's a. I didn't know that fact always, but I learned that over time in Canada. You know what? I think America taught me that. When actually.
A
And road rage. We taught you also.
B
Road rage. Should we fill it up?
A
Yes. Hold on. They say you hold them, right?
B
Yeah. I mean, you can pretty much hold them.
A
Just.
B
I wouldn't hold them from his tongue or the paper, but like those limbs are really strong. They're all bridged together.
A
It's got like texture to the wheat. Like it's ground up.
B
Yeah. I thought. I've never done that before.
A
It's ground up.
B
Never made a paper with weed in it out of glass. And I thought.
A
You see it ground up. Shut the up. It looks so sick.
B
Thank you, man.
A
Oh, dude. And there's. These aren't holes in here, right? It just looks like that.
B
Yeah. Y. So just hit out the back. It's a little tight.
A
They put two joints in that wreck the taste, but still. Yo, this is.
B
It's all solid.
A
Incredible.
B
Would just say when you are torching this, try to avoid the face. Yeah.
A
Yeah.
B
Okay.
A
But you can never remelt it. You. You make it at thousands of degrees, right?
B
Well, it's thermoshock. Like, it's. Because if I were to heat this up in the kiln, then hit the face, it would. It would be okay. But like, because it's cold, you could explode it. That would make it blow up. Yeah. If you hit the face.
C
So just be careful.
A
It's cuz. Thermoshock.
B
But yeah, I actually. I met Adam Sandler's personal security guard and personal photographer in Las Vegas. And they came up to my hotel room and I gave him their first dab and he started blowtorching the face. Of a giraffe. After he did one, he's like. And I was like, took the torch from him. And I'm like, what are you doing? He's like, oh, I thought you could just blowtorch it. I'm like, yo, bro, that would explode it. And that's a random coincidence that I was in Las Vegas telling somebody, oh, I'm a glassblower. Like, what do you mean? I'm like, yeah, McBongs. I made one for Adam Sandler. And these two guys turn around, they go, what'd you say? Yeah, I made one for Adam Sandler. And they were, like, so interested in that. And they're like, show me a picture. And I showed him. And they're like, oh, my God, dude. We see that at his studio. I'm his photographer, and I'm his personal security guard. And they came up with him at the Cosmo. It was like.
A
It was. I knew that guy's cool, man. I knew he was going to be cool.
B
He kept it.
A
Yeah.
B
He took pictures on his Hummer golf cart. Like, he broke the lip. And on one of the. He freaked out and ran to Home Depot and bought glue and glued the little piece back. In one of the pictures, you see, like, a little gray line lip, but, yeah, incredible. Anyways, okay, dude, what do you think? Bit hot.
A
I gotta be honest. I would trust your opinion.
B
Okay.
A
But we did just figure out the pill and the slurp together, so I'm not sure. Oh. Oh, that's hot.
B
That might be a bit hot.
A
That's a. That's a little. That's a little hot, dude. That should turn arctic white.
B
Oh, that scared the out of me.
A
I don't know why. I didn't want to do that. Okay, that dad got you.
B
It did.
A
I can see it on your face.
B
You know what? That's good because I just. At home, I smoke all day long. I'm actually gonna take a little break when I get home because all the podcasts I've been going on.
A
Yeah, I smoke.
B
No, I don't smoke every day. All the time. I take, like, a day off or I smoke just.
A
And you're saying. And now you're reflecting, like, maybe I smoke too much.
C
I.
B
Way too much.
A
Wait, how about this? I smoke all day. Does that help you? Does that make you feel better? I smoke all day, dude.
B
Like.
A
And I'm busier than 99% of bulls. You're fine. Get high it. If you can be productive and take a dab in the middle of it.
B
Well, hoobs interviewed Hoobs in the studio a couple nights ago. And he was just like, yeah, I'm not smoking in the shop right now. I smoke when I get home. And he just takes like less weed and he gets way more ripped. Like I might.
A
I could see that. This will get me high for like
B
at least three, five minutes. I'm gonna try it. I've never tried it. Taking a little break. I did once.
A
I thought I was going to the military when I was like 21. I was like, I'm gonna join. Yeah.
B
Smoking for 50 days.
A
Wow.
B
You quit smoking for 50? 50 days.
A
I was gonna go, yeah, that's the only time. And people ask, you take tolerance break, like when I sleep.
B
And that's pretty much the only time. You know what?
A
Too much.
B
It'll be a challenge and too much fun. Weed. Try it out for a minute. See how it goes.
A
Yeah. Don't you like, just smoke sometimes to smoke? Yeah, yeah, it's fun. Yeah. Yeah. Sometimes people watch movies because they want to watch.
B
Like, hey, man, I do smoke quite a bit, but that's okay.
A
Okay, I think we're good. I love the view you're on of him as you're ripping it. You get like POV rolling a joint video. I love this.
B
Oh,
A
he disappeared.
B
Yeah.
A
That was hot. That was hot. That was hot. Very hot.
B
A bit hot.
A
Jesus Christ. Well, I gotta name this fool now.
B
Oh, yeah. And I got birth certificates I forgot too with. But I didn't. I'll bring. You gotta pick the name and I'll fill it out.
A
Have a birth certificate and I'll have
B
to figure out the birthday. I'll go back a little bit.
A
No way. That makes it so much cooler, man. So if it ever like, if one of your pieces breaks all he died, you give a death certificate? I should.
B
That'd be funny, dude.
A
That'd be really funny, man.
B
Can you fix this? No, sir, dude. Here's the death certificate. Unfixable.
A
Give me some money, I'll get you another one. Yo, what is a giraffe's name that's getting wrecked on his way to get high? What's a giraffe's name?
B
We have Marty from Madagascar.
A
Yeah, but Marty's also our co host. And I don't want to name.
B
This is Marty.
A
Yeah, that's Marty.
B
We named him Marty.
A
Named him Marty. One of my good friend's name is.
B
His dog's name is Rocco. And this is my brother's name is Rocco.
A
So Rocco was like me. Sounds funny. Like rock with in the house. Like, yeah, that sounds hilarious, dude. I love to hear it. I'm gonna have to ponder on this name. I. I really got it, honestly.
B
Bob it and, you know, send you it when you think of it. I'll send you a birth certificate. They come with like a official Matt Robertson seal of approval. Gold embossed stamp. And there's a seal on the stamp. So it's a seal of approval.
A
Really?
B
Yeah.
C
I was like, I gotta.
A
Hi. Dude. No, a golden seal because it's seal approval. Oh, my God. Thank you.
B
You're welcome, man. Incredible. Yeah, dude. Thank you, brother. Appreciate you coming down, being on the pod and giving me all the advice and stuff.
A
Of course.
B
Yo, there you go, man.
A
Look at this guy.
B
Enjoy.
A
Now that we're back, guys, quick cut. Quick cutaway. Marty. Marty doesn't have a rig. Marty dabs a lot. Marty uses Puffco. Marty sucks the electronic pieces out of his puff, but that's how much he hits it. All right, I did that on purpose. I did it on purpose. You know, people slurp spaghetti. The electronics come through the atomizer. That's how hard he's hitting. So our homie Tony from the re also, guys, the re up store. I do not own the reup store anymore. Me and my homie Tony started it. That business runs great, but it runs great for one guy to take the money, not two guys to split it. It just didn't work. So I just let him have it. He keeps it. Go support my homie company, my homies company. The reup store. That's fully his.
C
Check out this.
A
So we hooked up Marty over here with this beautiful madre ship. That right there, if that's a mothership, that's 12k or like 7.7-12k on the rehab store. I guarantee you it's not 7. All right, that's a madre first ever actual rig. Marty's first piece.
C
I appreciate this.
A
Oh, can you go over there and get that little bong? Marty's little bong? I think it's in the back table.
C
Oh, I've come along. Are you talking about my.
A
Is it there? Okay, it might be out here.
C
It might be out here.
A
So when Marty used to be in the abyss season one, where he didn't really have a camera because we didn't know what we were doing really yet. You didn't have a camera, Marty. I don't even remember. He would rip this little. Little bong. This little dirty ass, little baby ass bong, right? And I found it the other day. Can you show the camera, Marty. Look at that, dude. Look how coagulated it is.
C
It. It wasn't looking like this when I was ripping it, I'm going to say. But this has been become an artifact and a fossil over time.
A
It's legendary. So this is your actual first rig now. Yeah, that was your first ball.
C
There you go.
A
Is your first rig. So shout out.
C
Much appreciated. I will put plenty of miles on this.
A
You just watched me bust in my new, my new giraffe. So watch Marty busting his new piece. So that's what, that's what this is. Real quick, guys. We don't do this often, so yeah,
C
I have been dabbing my face off. I mean legitimately. Like I'm making the change. I'm calling myself a dabber now. There I set it.
A
There it is. Also, guys, get into it after. It's an ongoing situation. Vigilante Marty over here is hunting down predators. Not with dap, not with that, just in real life. Guys, there's a situation going on.
C
There's a. Yeah, there's man, listen, I've been on the prowl. If we're being honest, Marty, I call,
A
I told him as he's on the phone, be like, don't take your gun. Because I was thinking, not taking my gun. Like, yeah, you're going to shoot this man in the chest. Dude, you're going to go to jail. That's exactly what would happened. You would have shot him and freaked the out. You probably wouldn't have went to jail. White man defending children against convicted wild raper guy. Yeah, I think you would have been okay, but it's not how it goes. It would have tainted. It would have been like, well, Marty's got to do four years for mansl.
C
If you guys come out. Any idea all the I have going on right now? Like I have cooking that's taken five, six, seven years to cook. But also at the same time it's like, it's a lot of goofy ass going on.
A
Let's go. Yo. I gotta be honest, that link is pretty badass.
C
Shout out rehab store.
A
It is pretty sick, dude. That's a nice rig, man. I gotta be honest, Marty, I'm gonna give you the cobra coil. That right there is shout out to Puff.
C
You guys see what's going on right here? That LinkedIn is nice. Pro is acting as an email.
A
Oh, I got this too. There's a bunch of coming out. Dude. What's up guys? Taking a moment to talk about the sponsor of this episode and this is Puffco. Introducing the proxy core. Look at this thing. Literally palm of your hand. You do not need to have glass. You do not need to put it into something. The pipe, the bubbler, nothing. This is the whole piece. Also connects to the app. One button technology, guys. This right here is the most portable thing I could think of. Like I said, the pivot is cool too. This has a 3D chamber. I mean, I know it's packed, but there it is. Core mouthpiece, the core itself, the cup. Also inside is a joystick cab and also terp pearls. This is already packed, but I know you're seeing this right here. This. This is a brand new hot knife. Also a little latch in case you want to hook it to your puffco bag. Pretty cool. So the difference between the last proxy and the proxy core is this is self sufficient. It's by itself. It could smoke by itself. You don't need glass, you don't need a bubbler attach. You need nothing. The other proxy you attach is one of those pieces. This. That's why it has the cup. But it's also modular. It goes to every other piece. You could use this with everything just like the other proxy. No difference, except you can actually use it by itself. Portability, battery life connects with the app. You can customize everything just like you do the peak, just like you do everything. Thank you for being here. Back to the episode. You ever smoke a joint with no hands? You ever done that, Marty? Smoking joint without grabbing it?
C
I'm almost like choked doing that. Yeah.
A
Yeah, I almost did, dude. Oh, wow. Yeah, I got it. Smoking wizardries weed.
C
Come on.
A
What a piece. Easy.
C
Just good. You guys. You guys saw it here first. My first ever rip out of my own.
A
Nice, dude. I like the iridescent. Like, it's like. What is it called? It looks like oils on top of water.
C
Iridescent.
A
That's iridescent, right? What was that?
C
Huh?
A
What fell? Oh, that. Okay. I don't know why. I just thought you just smashed your rig. I thought I was just broke right now. I started. Okay. Anyway, Marty's rig. My first cut. Well, not my first custom. My new custom piece, which is baller. I like it. You hold him by the ass and rip the. Rip and rip the giraffe. Okay, cool. Yeah, that's awesome. Good.
C
But anyway, yeah, what you were referring to is this. Like, you guys know I've been working with, for. With that. With Josh and dad's against predators. Dads against predators.com is probably gonna be live by the time you're watching this and we started a foundation, DAP Cares. You might have seen Josh is like literally supporting not not only supporting victims and organizations that support victims, but athletes and like that too. Like DAP Cares. He went and did his first MMA event. He's like getting into that community. Like we're really growing DAP beyond, like into a real thing. It's super sick. Not to mention. And shout out to Everybody that's been DMing me to help for our pilot where the version of dad Against Predators made for TV is coming to fruition. And we, we have, we're partnering with either a police officer or retired police officer, detective, parents and people that have been affected by these creeps and like this and some other people that we need for the pilot episode. Shout out to everybody that's been reaching out and offering to help.
A
I just got it a way to humanize this more. Cuz most people see the predator, they don't see the victim ever.
C
Yeah.
A
A four or five minute interview in the town of some of a victim in that town backstory, what it did, what happened, when it happened, what happened to that predator. And most likely like nothing happened to him. And that's going to infuriate the righteous person and everybody. And that'll kind of justify what Think of this way, guys. How many. Marty's going through this right now, right? With some creep, right? Some creep next to him trying to lure kids into a van with candy, actual candy.
C
Like, like you would hear, you know,
A
and a debit card.
C
Debit cards and candy. And they come off.
A
Yeah. Didn't arrest him. He just walked back into his house and said, hey man, knock it off.
C
The sheriffs came, they had him twice. This happened twice. He's this fool's literally been like two following times already.
A
And one kid had to escape from him.
C
Yeah. Or like three houses down. The kid literally had to evade this dude on his bike.
A
That's why I told Marty to leave his gut at hope. He's gonna kill this guy. So what I'm saying is like look at Marty right now going out this, doing the reports, doing all this. His wife's a realtor. They're all making those reports, not even getting arrested. What do you think Josh is going to do? He's going to sit there and they're going to go, you, we're not arresting. We'll do the investigation. I'm going home. They're not going to do the investigation. Like, I don't want to deal with this. I, I hate being a cop. That's what these Cops are going to do.
C
He just met with the people from his hometown because he just. If he didn't see it, he just did. The first ever flash mob predator catch and check out unrestricted. He came and talked about it.
A
Incredible.
C
But the. The police chief in them told him that they don't catch predators because if it looked like there was hella pedophiles in a given town, then it would lower the rate of people wanting to
A
move to that or getting them out.
C
Bro, what are you even.
A
What does that mean?
C
Like, to me, it's like you guys are here to protect and serve. Obviously that's like protecting. You're protecting the wrong people. You're waiting and reacting after a kid gets kidnapped or murdered. When you try to solicit a kid, when you try to steal a kid, in my mind, that's a crime. You're not allowed to try to steal a kid.
A
It should be attempted kidnapping.
C
And it's like, so now they came, they filed a report and they just let them go. So now you're literally just sitting around and waiting for something horrible to happen.
A
So you can say, all right, he did it then.
C
Yeah. So the literally like yesterday, the day before I found out he didn't get a. I assumed he got arrested. It never even crossed my mind. Like, it was all over Facebook. It went viral in our neighborhood. Like, the sheriffs were all there. I didn't even think that the dude wouldn't have gotten arrested. And then when I found out he didn't, I immediately found out who the homeowner is. Got her on the phone. They didn't let her know. She had no idea. This lady had a panic attack. When I called her, she started freaking out.
A
Hey, there's kids at the house the guy lives at. Live on, man. What are we doing? Come on.
C
And it's like this house was already sketched out. And I'm not even bringing that up. Like you're in the neighborhood of homeowners and this is like a house and it's a rental. It's probably one of the only rentals on the whole block. And since they moved in, like, you guys are up. You got hella kids posted up looking like gang bangers in the driveway. You got a hell of just outside. You're not respecting the neighborhood. You guys look goofy as out here. It's fine. But then now this happens and it's like, I just refuse to let this slide. I got the homeowner on the phone and I'm actively working towards getting them evicted. The Property manager, and I'm not going to air him out here. But if he doesn't act right, I will start mentioning his name, and I don't want to do that at all. But I need you to act swiftly and not act scared. He's acting all. Well, I'm scheduled an appointment to go with the tenants and take a. Bro, they're not gonna help you. Come evict them. Like you.
A
Yeah,
C
bro, I'll take your name tag. I will go evict them. They're evicted.
A
I'm.
C
I'm letting you know they're evicted.
A
Makes no sense to me, so.
C
And I'm putting hella pressure on them, literally this weekend, I will be posted up in front of the house with signs, there is a child predator in this house. Come do something. Bring your kids out here and come do something. I'm hoping that they do. I'm hoping. I'm hoping somebody does. Not even just in a way to let you know that we're not letting the slide the so meet and greet.
A
Marty's neighborhood, Front of a creep's house. You know, bring a bat and a shovel.
C
Awareness. It's just about awareness. And like, sorry, you guys got to go live outside somewhere. Sorry, you're not allowed to come in here in this neighborhood and do this.
A
Or get the creeps out of your house and let your kids live there with your. There's children in that house. That's weird.
C
Maybe you shouldn't have kids if you got a child predator.
A
It's definitely an uncle. It's just definitely someone's uncle. They let. That they let live there. I have one. He's called my stepbrother. He's a creep. Don't even acknowledge it. When I see him in the room. I told you. I don't even speak. I don't even look at his face when he said, I see him. He's a creep. A proven creep. No, I'm cool. That's my brother. I'm good. I never mentioned his ass.
C
Yeah.
A
You guys even know I had another one? I have another older. Older brother. Him. Creeps, man.
C
Him. Anyway, I don't want to do no violence. I don't want to do none of that. All I want to do is just not have an active child predator. Be completely comfortable on my street.
A
That's it there. Be completely comfortable. That's a good. That's another thing. Like, this was not even tripping. I'm worried about bills. This motherfucker's just living life free. That dude on the street.
C
I Live on with my kids. Got my kids scared to go outside.
A
Yeah, that's.
C
They're looking at me like, bro, because
A
he's by the park.
C
Yeah, he was living.
A
That's where your kids chill all day. Yeah, like, that's where they're at. You can't even go outside.
C
Bought this house because it's in the safest city in America. It's in a beautiful, safe, nice air. Like, sorry, guys, you can't come ruin this. I won't rest. I will ruin your. Like, I won't go away. Property manager, owner, tenants. Sorry, the. Do you want me to door to
A
do away right there. Child predator. Be very careful. I'm trying to get him evicted. Tell the whole neighborhood that's the plan.
C
I mean, bro's already viral there. You know how the Facebook in the ring and like, he's already on it. Like, everybody already knows, but he's just hella comfortable. Nothing happened. Cops came and said, be on your way twice.
A
Apparently so go back inside, man. That's crazy.
C
And it just makes dad like, already I'm passionate about the stats against predator because it was my backstory. But, like, just like this. It's like, this is insane. Like, you would never think. Then you see the videos Jay and Josh post.
A
Like, so. Oh. That's why I want to say the reason I brought that up. Now look at Josh's situation where he meets up with a person. There is no kids, there's no neighborhood. There's no people to rally around. His Facebook post. How is he supposed to get these guys arrested? Marty can't even get these guys arrested. Josh. I like to talk about it. Josh had 80 catches, no hitting. Anybody try to get him arrested? You guys, nobody mentions that. The first, like, year he's trying to just get these guys arrested. Then some guy says, hit me. I deserve it. And he goes smack goes, you know what? I think we should do that to all of them. At least I did something to this guy because he doesn't need to get to go home. He's gonna go home like, I'm up and everybody knows. Everybody knows.
C
Might not do this again there.
A
At least they're doing that. And all the people. This is just guys's violence. What are you doing? You ain't doing. So shut up. The. If you don't. If you're not doing anything, why are you mad about this guy doing something about it? And people like you don't get him arrested. Other people get him arrested. If they do get arrested. If they do, good for the cops. Because 99% of the time they don't do anything. The story I told him. I did a story time with Josh about the creep at the park grabbing his dick. They didn't arrest him. They told him to walk away. He was at the playground. He's there every day. They just told him go home. They didn't even arrest him. And I, we're the one that called the cops, bro. I'm telling you firsthand. Nothing happened. When we called the cops and showed the guy that was touching his dick, pointed him out, everything. They didn't do nothing. He said around 40 kids by himself. Marty over here in a neighborhood the house he bought. That's why daps here to beat the out of these guys. Because at least there's something. Because if not they're gonna get exposed. That's it. Once you want to expose and get the kicked out of them. I would. I'm not even a violent person. I would love that. That sounds great. At least it's something. You ever see a robber get away with everything? You're like, I wish somebody would have beat his ass for he left. Exactly. That's what we're talking about.
C
And like you said, that little smack or whatever they get like it does something. If they were to actually get arrested, bro. Like that. Let that smack awaken you to something.
A
Cuz I just hope all these guys they smack never do it again. Because when they do go to jail, they're not going to last.
C
That's what I'm saying.
A
People don't understand. Like these fools get murdered all the time. It is what it is. Like it just. It just happens more Frankly. It happens eight times, seven times out of 10 that you think it doesn't. It does. This is not the news.
C
Yeah. And then like I watched this Tommy G documentary on the Epstein files. I'm ignorant to all this because I just assume everybody's evil and corrupt anyway going into it. But then I start to watch the Tommy G to wrap my mind. It grosses me out.
A
Explain what happened.
C
Just your standard Epstein of the people in control being insane creeps.
A
I get it.
C
And then it's just like you just look at that trickle down in my neighborhood. It's everything Josh says and nobody gives a. You know what I'm saying? Like. And it's like who do you. Who. How high do I. How high the food chain. Can you take this issue up? Because at the top it's still an issue. And all the way down here with this piece of. In my neighborhood.
A
And if the Guy at the top's one of them. You think he's gonna let you get close? No. By the time he got number nine of his friend separation, he's like, oh, this guy's getting close. Close. We should. We should do something to him. They got money, power. What else do you need? But that guy's a creep. And put. Make him a creep before he finds out you're a creep. Come on, man. Creeps are coward ass fools. You think they're going to want to get caught? No, that's the whole point. I think that's why it's under wraps. Why they have an island that they bought. Because they're like, dude, we can't let anybody know what we're doing because they know how bad it is. They. That's the whole point, dude. And if you're just. The reason I see is like, if you're mad at Josh doing that, you're complacent. Is that the right word?
C
Yeah, that's a. I think you nailed it with that word. Maybe like, well, complace. Maybe like. Like you got your head in the sand or like you're.
A
There you go. Head in the sand. There you go. Like, you try to ignore it. You're just trying to ignore what's here.
C
Like, it's such an. Seems like such an unchangeable, horrific part of the foundation of our country, I guess you could say. Like, how do you even change this?
A
I don't think it's us. It's everywhere.
C
Yeah, it's earth. And then it's like, I think we
A
only got morals a couple hundred years ago, man.
C
Yeah.
A
I think before that, humans were like, I don't care.
C
Anything goes.
A
Anything. Like, I win. I win.
C
Yeah. I do what I want, I kill. I. I do, I. Whatever. Like, yeah, it's Game of Thrones.
A
I watched this yesterday. It was three prisoners, three white supremacists. One of them looked kind of cool. He goes, it's just the way I am, man. He's like, it's not, am I gonna kill you? It's how. It's like, I don't care what you say to me. It's not going to change anything. If you're a nice person and you're really cool, I'll just make it quick and strangle you and be over. He's like, but it depends on who you are. Like, no matter what, I'm gonna do it. There's no changing. And the way he says, like, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna kill you no matter what. But like, how. The way he said. He's like. And that's just how I am, man. It's like, I'm sorry. Like, just the way he's talking. He's like, if a cop pulls me over, I'm gonna be very nice till you get up, and I'm gonna shoot you right in the face. I'm not gonna get into shootout. I'm not gonna turn around and shoot you. I'll wait till you walk up and I'm gonna punch. I'm gonna blast you and I'm gonna leave. It's like, there's nothing else to it. I'm sorry. Like, damn, dude. He's like, I'm sorry, man. That's up. I gotta be honest. If it came to that point, I'd be like, that cuff. Cuff yourself. Cuff on your legs. I'll put you in the ditch. Someone will find you. Or I shoot you in the face. Because that's. I can't even see it, dude. So mean. It's just at work, dude. People are evil, man. It's such a weird world. Also, designers in jail. I don't know if that makes a difference. Just kidding. But he is. He's in jail.
C
Yeah, it's weird. I hate feeling like this. It's like. And there. There's other. Not. That's not even the only situation. There's other situations, too, that I will elaborate on in the future. But just know that it's like I'm on my tree. Bad guys, bad. But I always have been. But it's just, like, unavoidable when it happens. I guess you just got to be ready for the. So that's it. That's the moral of the story. Like, there's certain. You can't let slide. And when you're a dad and you know you got a demon lurking around, like, that's it. Or if somebody does some creepy to your wife or anybody, like, you can't let that go. Like, what the do you want from me?
A
Yeah, exactly.
C
It felt like a nice ad break moment.
A

Use our code, watch March Madness, win some money. Break it down for you guys real quick. I don't know if I have, but if I haven't met up with these people named Soapbox. It's a company, right? They do VR, AR. Basically, the quest, the head, the headset you put on. They can do that. They put on concerts, live performances, stuff, right? You can walk around the person. It's like VR or it's ar, so it's in this room still. But somebody will pop up. So like, hey, let's watch Star. Star wars ar and just dialogue Luke Skywalker. And anyway, the person will be in your room. It'll look real. The person's in your room with the headset. It's in. It's. It's insane. But a VR is. The whole room changes to another world, right? AR is where person pops up in
C
your environment as if you're sitting at the table with you right now, basically, like. Or you're sitting at your. Their table in their room.
A
Wherever you're in, the person pops up. So this is what they had me do. I came by and they wanted me to do how to roll a joint, right? How to roll a joint. So basically, if you have the meta quest, it'll be on there. You put it on and you're in my world and say, I'm right here. You can walk around me, you can press pause, pause. You can do anything. You can come this close to my face and look. It's incredible. So I did how to roll a joint. You know, break down the steps of everything. But this is for the future, for everything. This is never going away. This is the start of AR VR. Have you ever watched Ready Player one? We're the first versions of that Right now we're doing Ready Player one weed. That's what we're doing. Weed section on Ready Player one. And it'll be. I'll be the first guy in history, history, ever in life to show you how to roll a joint. And it's gonna be here forever. So I show you how to roll joint for the next thousand years, if that's how long they do it for. Which is crazy. So in the episode, I'm kind of talking like to the future. I don't know if you guys still do this in the future because I don't know what year it's going to be that you're watching this video in, right. I could be 95, but I put on my. And that's me. Like, damn, that's he. Yeah, it is. That's crazy. I can always see the young version of myself in person. That's weird. So no matter what did that. How to roll a joint. Did the whole thing. It's really cool. So that's coming soon, where you can scroll on the headset, go how to roll joint, bam. And I'll pop up in the environment. The whole thing will change. You can walk around me and as I'm rolling, you could press paw. You could walk up, look right over my shoulder and see exactly what my face fingers doing. You can look inside my joint if you want. As I'm rolling it. You have the power to move around everywhere. It's really. It's really futuristic, man. It's crazy, right? So how to roll joint. Every single thing you can think of. I did it all with proper papers, which is kind of cool because it's going to be forever. So it's there. Rolling a joint. Very cool. First time ever in history. And then right after that they're like, hey, you want to do like a story time stand up set? I'm like, all right, cool. So I told a story, but an ar. So this is what you're going to be able to do, guys. You're going to be able to pop on a headset soon and put a dope. Azula Story time Ecstasy stories. I did them. I did a bit, right? I did like a stand up bit that I've been doing in my stand up set. But it's my stand up is basically story time standing up. That's really what it is. Okay. It's ridiculous. Anyway, I did a story and you're gonna be able put the headset on. Press, press that one. I will pop up in your room. I could be this big. You can make me 100ft tall. Whatever you want to do. All right? But make me in your room. And I will be moving around in your room, realistic as you could ever think. I'm walking around. I have my microphone. I'm talking. I'm talking about the story. I'm like, you can walk around me as I'm doing. It's. It's very, very weird. But now you can have. You guys, like, story time. Now I can pop up in your room, literally, and tell you a story time. I could. I could be anywhere in your house and you just press go. What's up, man? You're about to watch story time. It's creepy, dude. Help me. How we want Kenobi. You're only that, but for eight minutes. It's really cool, man. It's. It's. It's mind blowing, actually. I saw myself get rendered. It's weird. Dude, it's me. There's nothing. There's no. No changes. No nothing. That's. It's a. It's a person pops up right in front of you and it is the weirdest you've ever seen.
C
How long till they can take all these hours of you talking online and like then the person can then have a conversation with you and based on, like it's programmed. It knows so much about you based on.
A
That's cool, though. Weird. Weird. But. But very cool.
C
Yeah, but anyway. Yeah. Shout out to soapbox. That is insane.
A
Hold on. Besides that. Yeah, Getting into the next part because they're like, yo, you do a lot of entrepreneurial business today. You guys a TED Talk. Hey, you know how kids curriculum has iPads now? Like you use an iPad at school. I don't if you know that. Guys, headsets are coming for history class. All right, today we're going to be in 1840 in Texas, blah, blah. During the something something revolution or whatever the it is. I said all that. It's probably none of that's ever happened in Texas. Ready? They're kids in class. People in class across America will put a headset on required by curriculum. The teacher will be standing there. Go. So in your seats. I'm going to take you through the battle of something. And they're going to go through pause. This is general sub, like the future. That's what they're starting. It's already in four states.
C
Right.
A
Not all schools, but four states have it right now in certain schools, high schools and colleges. So I did an entrepreneurial like how to start. Like how you can start a business. How does. I did 10 questions. They had the board head of the LA school board sitting right off camera and he fed me 10 questions. I said the question and said it.
C
That's not even doing them justice.
A
Right. It's incredible. It's. It's shocking. So ready? I told him about Marty, right? I'm like, Marty's really like this, really. The educational Swiss army guy. You should definitely talk to him. So Marty has, Marty's been trying to put on his course, right? For like what, three years? It has. We have no time. The universe works.
C
Very weird, guys. This is kind of trippy, actually. You've been watching this in real time.
A
Yes, we talked about it. Mark talks about my course. But we're gonna get started. We're gonna get started. We talked about it, right? And a lot of people in our fans were like, I would love to take that course. Marty's gonna pop up in your classroom now and give you his entire course. So Marty's gonna start filming his huge online course. But it's going to be part of the, the curriculum of the United States. Marty and I are going to be in people's schools teaching them.
B
Holy.
A
That's insane. It's insane. Mine's more fun, goofy things you can't. You can do if you try both. Blah, blah. How to. How I did this, how I do this, how I approach business, all these things, like knowledge. It's knowledge stuff Marty's not like, so how to build the brand, how to build this. This is how you're gonna do when you come to digital marketing. Blah, blah, blah. He, he has the Swiss army knife we talked about. Marty's gonna have his own course. I'm just gonna have like a little pop up section. Right? Hey, what's up? So kids or college students go, I'm gonna learn from people I, I like. I'm gonna learn from people that aren't my teachers. Boom. I don't know who dope is, y'. All. Guys. Boom. Hey, what's up, guys? I'm doing, I've done this, this thing. Like, what the. Oh, I've actually seen this guy. And they're like, oh, I'm learning from somebody I like. And then they're like, I've seen this fool's podcast. This fool. That's Marty.
C
Somebody that's really out there doing it.
A
Yeah. Not just your teachers that learn in a book, we're teaching you. We learn in real life and use in real life and show that it's successful. It's a lot different than teacher going, if you better use this like, well what do you know? You went to school with my mom. Now you're teaching in the same school you went to. Like you can't. I. Teachers are great. Teachers are still great. But some kids think that way, some people think that way. Who the do you know?
C
But think about it. Like has for instance.
A
Yeah.
C
Like the first one that we're doing is a college. And like. Hold on, I'm not gonna say which one or whatever.
A
But I don't know if we're talking. I don't even know if we're tired.
C
No, I thought that was.
A
Are shown. Shown anywhere yet?
C
Oh no.
A
The only place in the world they have them right now.
C
Oh, all right, well I'm gonna go ahead and bleep out what I just said, but just know that it's coming soon.
A
That's coming soon.
C
You know that there's companies that are going to license this to the districts. That's the play. It's to school districts, the whole district to be able to, to to get the VR AR glasses to wear. And then you have acts, you have the, you know, you license the course
A
which is digital media.
C
Yeah.
A
And who's gonna pay us? The United States of America.
C
Finally. Yeah, right, right. I mean we're sitting here taking giant dab breaks, you know what I'm saying? But like yeah, this is it. Like if you, I mean imagine go
A
back to school so you watch.
C
Imagine if you're in high school and you could literally instead of just whatever you're doing, you could take a VR class about how to make money through digital media. Real life that.
A
What's up guys?
C
Sitting here ranting at you like this about digital media. Yeah, yeah. And the, and dope as usual is just a case study like you said. It's also a giant ad for dope as usual because it is the case study of what how to build the brand ecosystem. Why have so many shows come and gone and we're still here? Cuz we have a brand ecosystem. I set the up that way from the start. We're still on, we're still growing on upward trend.
A
Like it's just crazy. Think about my fought barely graduated
B
sick.
A
Now you're gonna learn from me. I think that's, that's the funniest part of all of this. So yeah, Marty's gonna have a whole full ass course. So right now we're gonna be in four states anyway. I can't wait to see screenshots for people like you were in my class today.
C
In my class because my sister, she
A
was learning about me in senior year. They brought me up as an example, and they did a whole little thing on me in school in. In Buhk High as a business course. Let's go.
C
It's insane.
A
They're already doing it.
C
The. What makes me so excited is the VR aspect. It could make it just so much better than any tutorial that I.
A
You'll remember the general's name when you see his ass. Battle, Right?
C
Wow.
A
We just saw this guy battle. Holy. What was that guy's name?
C
Like, especially if I could, like. If we can, like, connect it to, like, some. Some, you know, meta glasses footage for me. Real, like, what a great way to learn. You're seeing.
A
For the next 10 minutes, I'm gonna be showing you how to cut a person. An image out. Cut a person, lay a person on blend. So by the end of this, you can make your own flyers for your own graphics. Ready, go. Pov. You, Tony Stark style, moving things around. Boom. So I'm gonna put this. The reason I'm using this. Because you see his shoulders chop.
C
Exactly.
A
It's gonna have a hard line. You don't want a hard line in the middle of your image. Like, oh, my God, man.
C
The beautiful part about it is we're going to start with business. It's a business course. I'm not even letting you learn how to make money until you understand how to set yourself up as a business. Then we're going to get into all the creative aspects of digital media that you can make money through how to build a brand ecosystem. I give these courses to people all the time, and I'm just like, this is it. I did a presentation like this the other day, and I was like, wow, Hour and a half. That was. That was a lesson. This was in VR with everything that I was talking about going around me.
A
Come back after lunch. We're gonna finish the rest of Marty's course. Yeah. Oh, don't go to school. I would go to school. I have to listen to this. Tell me quadratic formula all day. I hate it. I would go back to school if I could learn like that. We're all visual learners. Everybody is. And you know what that's gonna do? Keeps off their phone in class. Because you can't be on your phone
C
if you're in VR world.
A
You have to pay attention, dude. You can't do anything but. And you know, I'll know if you're not because you don't have it on.
C
We have your cornea sensors.
A
Yeah. What else are you looking at stupid. Mark, wake the up. We can see your sense of your sleep, man. You know what? Tony Stark talks to. What's the person's name? Jarvis. Jarvis. And shows his eyes. It's gonna have that image of like, michael, wake up. I like that. Could you not. Could you imagine. Can't wait till it drops.
C
Yeah. And I know it's been like, yo, we want to do this. We want to do this. And that's. This is. This is an update. But this is happening. Like, this is legitimately happening. And I'm. We're both. You already did your. Mine's. Mine's gonna be a lot more involved, but I'm aggressively moving forward on that. A bunch of other.
A
Very cool. How long have you been filming? 58 minutes.
C
Yeah.
A
Yeah.
C
Y.
A
I knew. I was like, it's not an hour, but it's close, dude. Okay, good. Perfect. Oh, and we cut in Matt Roberts.
C
Yeah.
A
We're over an hour now. Damn. Okay. I just wanted to make sure we're moving along here. Yeah, good. So this is what's going on. What else is going on with. Dude, that's a lot of. Just. That project alone is like a whole year's worth of. That's a side project.
C
Yeah, yeah. It literally is a little side project.
A
Yeah, we're trying. All right, Very cool. Damn, dude. I don't usually smoke too much before shows. It's kind of crazy.
C
Oh, yeah, you gotta. I genuinely don't know what day of the week it is anymore.
A
Yeah, I feel you.
C
It's Friday. You got a show tonight?
A
Yeah, tonight at 10. And it's four, so I have six hours.
C
Yeah.
A
All right. We're supposed to go to the symphony right now, but the symphony started an hour. LA symphony. Like, to go watch an orchestra. We got tickets, but I'd have to leave an intermission to go to the show. To my show. So we're trying to sell our tickets so we can go tomorrow and then I wouldn't have to miss anything tonight. And Rosie's car is getting dropped off in, like an hour here. Oh, we just got it wrapped. Finally, it's done. Ready to go. Getting dropped off. We're just trying to hit all these symphony sounds.
C
Like a mushrooms thing?
A
No, no, like orchestra. I got, like.
C
Yeah, but I'm saying, like, something. You would take mushrooms.
A
Oh, you could. I think so. I don't know what to expect, but trying to figure it out right now.
C
A lot of parts.
A
A lot. For sure. No, probably mostly Asians. Asians love the symphony.
C
Really?
A
Oh, they're always playing the violin. Violin and the piano. Am I right? All the prodigies are always Asian kids playing piano.
C
Okay.
A
I'm not wrong. Yeah. Okay, so here we go. Last thing. I. Yeah, yeah. Okay. So working on some stuff. Gonna be helping people with some movie stuff very soon this year. I have to, like, really think about what I'm doing because I don't have all the time. I think I do. So I was going to go way more involved. So now I'm going to go less involved because it's. There's just. It's impossible. I can. I don't have the time to do it, but I'm helping these people with a movie. There's going to be a movie release coming soon. Gonna do a bunch of stuff besides that. I don't want to. I'm being very vague. I've been talking to these people, right? And the whole plan is after this one's released that I do a movie with them in the theater. It'll be in a couple hundred theaters. We're trying to figure out, Dial it in, what it is exactly. But no matter what, I have to go to another fucking country for like three weeks to four weeks to film this thing. So hopefully I'll know more in the next couple months. But it could be really cool. This could be this. I'm just playing life as it is right now. I'm not getting too hyped up. The best outcome. We have our cheese and shot movies that do well. They're in theaters and now we have movies very well. Could happen. Should happen. The downside, I just filmed a lot of stuff. Got practice on dialogue. Read more scripts like that. We're meeting up soon because Marty got me a little part in some little series coming up.
C
I need you guys to understand that there is heavy duty.
A
A lot of.
C
There is a lot of going on right now.
A
Be very vague right now, but.
C
But trust me, this has been years in the making. There's opportunities cooking right now that are significant. They're gonna be really fun to watch roll out. And we just appreciate you guys being here with us and just trying to push Thomas into some. That's just gonna keep leveling everything up.
A
Oh, yeah. So series. I got a little part coming up. Should be very fun. And then what's your next trips possible? Huh?
C
What's your next trips?
A
Hopefully nothing. Nowhere.
C
You're.
A
Marty's leaving the. Leaving the country. Marty's leaving the mainland, I should say. Yeah. All right. He's gonna take the. Take the trip over to. I Don't understand how Japan is so close to the left, but you have to go around the whole world to the right, right? I don't understand.
C
I don't understand.
A
He's not going Japan. He's going to. He's going to Hawaii.
C
The one time I book a trip, the government ends and Hawaii gets flooded.
A
The government ends, war starts and Hawaii is no longer a state. It just got wiped out. Right?
C
Or that's what I'm saying.
B
Big flood.
A
Big, big storms.
C
Don't Google, you know, Maui flood right now. It doesn't look good. It's not good. I called and allegedly everything's gonna be okay.
A
Like, yeah, yeah, we're fine. Schools need even water. We'll have it good by the time you get here.
C
Circling him and. But yeah, we're doing all the cool. I had a bunch of cool to flex when Burner was here until he started talking about he drops 130k.
A
What about a whole cool show about
C
the Flex 30 million dollar mansion. But he goes, I mean, it's still fun. Yeah, yeah. No.
A
Hell no. There's always going to be a Jeff Bezos out there, like ruining my day. Just cuz you have a sick room doesn't mean my room's not sick. That. Hell no.
C
I made sure, like. And my whole goal. We'll see how it goes. I'm telling you guys this now because it might be funny how it turns out. Who knows, Maybe it'll go perfect. But the idea is when we get there, everything is set for the full trip till we get back. I gotta literally everything coordinated. We're doing cool. Every day we got a different dinner reservation. Had some exclusive lined up for every night. So we'll see. It's the first time in our life I was like, this is not going to be a discount budget situation. This is for April's 40th birthday. I wanted to be actually nice.
A
Don't go. Yeah, she's right. When you get on the plane, like, I'm gonna go to the bathroom and you just step off the plane and when they get there, you have no signal. So when they get back. No, this is for you guys. I was just seeing you off. I'll see you in a couple days. She's not coming home, right? Everything's planned.
C
Everything's flooded too. You guys are stuck there. Like it's not even talking about tsa.
A
That'd be crazy. How do you let Macaulay Culkin on the plane? With the wrong ticket. He has the wrong ticket for that flight. You let this job.
C
Pre 9 11, they were letting you party on the planes.
A
And like, I mean, how did Jim Carrey get past the security and flip out and dumb and dumber. They would have never let that man through. Also, he said that when he said
C
that, all I saw was, it's okay, I'm a limo driver.
A
I'm a different movie funny man.
C
God.
A
All right, all right. So yeah, Marty's going to Hawaii, man.
C
I know you probably. Yeah, we won't have another solo episode before then, so mahalo. I'll let you know.
A
That went so Mahalo. I'll let you know. Wait, Mahalo's the. Their concierge name?
C
Yes, it's Hawaiian for Michael and Chip.
A
Yeah, no, it definitely is Hawaiian for Michael. You should, you should stick with that. Yeah, I'm not going anywhere. I just got a bunch of stuff happening all the time. That's it. Oh, May 22nd. Oh, damn. May not. It's April coming up. Gone. I might be in Colorado for Denver, Colorado for Denver. I might be in Denver, Colorado for 420. I'm not sure I'll announce everything. I'm trying to dial it back in or dial everything in. I actually have to get on a call after this about it, but I'll let you guys know for 420 coming up. I don't know. Oh, hall of Flowers. Thank you for everybody. Met at hall of Flowers. Thank you very much. Went there to do a bunch of wholesale stuff. Our first cool booth we've ever had. Actual professional looking booth with printed out stuff. Not just a pop up or like a tablecloth, but actual.
C
Great. Yeah, it's awesome online.
A
Yeah, it looks good. And I think besides that, Barty pretty much caught up, right? Pretty much caught up.
C
I think there's more.
A
Oh, hold on. The rat ate Marty's car. Totaled it. The rat eating Marty's car totaled the car. That's how long it's been since we've seen you guys.
C
Yeah, I just got the truck back. I had to go to war with the auto place too. I just got got this truck back. It wasn't the rat, but he could have had something to do with it.
A
Anyway, I did have to get an
C
all new transmission, rendering my brand new truck essentially a lemon.
A
So now they're giving your money back?
C
Yep. All up in their ass about that too. So we'll see how that turns out.
A
Marty's crushing. He's getting truck checks and pedophiles kicked out of his neighborhood. Dude. And working on the show.
C
It's a glamorous lifestyle.
A
I came up here for pedophiles. Rats eat my engine. Go to Hawaii during a natural life. Dude. This is Jerry Springer episode of every guest they brought on like I'm from Hawaii. I killed. I'm an exterminator. This is what it is. This is like. At the end of wizard of Oz was like, you're not, you're not a lion. You're my uncle. What a dumb ending. I imagine all of you but one was an animal and one was a scarecrow.
C
What the was this?
A
What are you on? That's just women before they could vote. They're just always making up. I was kidding. That's funny. Eat a dick. That made me laugh. Yeah, that's it. I don't remember what else we were talking about. That's all I had to talk about, guys. That's it. That's it. So clips channel YouTube told us you you ain't getting nothing on this. Suck my dick. So we have a clips channel. It does nothing. It's as if no one sees it. It's the weirdest ever. Now these clips on Instagram, all platforms, millions skyrocket, boost Spotify, cough up 100k on that one week one like, yeah, thanks man. YouTube. Honestly, dude, I, I at this point, I think we're just going to have to have a change of management when the change of management happens. Guys, me and Marty haven't looked at the YouTube views in like two months. I, I used to look at it every morning, go, okay, I'm going to try to boost it here. How can I post something to boost it here? I haven't gave a in over two months and it's a big relief. I'm not stressing every day anymore. Like damn, dude, why isn't you two doing this to us? They don't with us. I don't care anymore, you dick. My channel low series I've ever seen since before I had 100k ever, ever telling you dude and everybody in there like damn, I didn't even see this pop up. I didn't even see this pop up, man.

A
Just drop a bunch of. First time we ever did like actual content for each piece. What else?
C
Those photos came out crazy with the slave squad dudes.
A
Yeah, really good.
C
Amazing.
A
We realized we lit a fire on a bat in a paper warehouse in front of the paper section.
C
Okay.
A
Stupid as he's doing this, his whole background is just papers. Your inventory all the way right behind the fire. We could have stepped up four more feet. Didn't. Why?
C
Would have been a sick shot.
A
Oh, Marty. The whole warehouse would have went up. No, no, no. It's behind his wall.
C
It's going to be more flammable.
A
Yeah, it's right behind this wall. And there's one exit. Yeah, we gotta change that. Okay. That's it. All right. Oh, man. Gotta wake up. I feel like. Oh, let's go home.
C
If you like this little interjection style episode, go watch the mods episode. It was a great episode. I kind of forgot about. But we did the same and did a little vlog. I'd like to do this more often.
A
Oh, yeah. All right. Oh, Eric. I have Eric on soon. He hit me up the other day.
C
Yep, to a sec. Great recurring guest. A lot of great new guests. A lot of great recurring guests.
A
We've had a big run. It's first quarter so far. A lot of sick guests. Marty posted that. Damn. We've had a lot of guests this year.
C
I heard back from John Taffer's people about that idea too.
A
Oh yeah. He can't do that. Bar rescue is proprietary to Bar rescue. They can't do dispensary rescue without it being from bar rescue.
C
You can't do a rescue. But you could. We could do something.
A
You do something. But they said great idea. Unfortunately that for legal would be able. Yeah, that's right. Huh? You can just take. That's right. It's real. There's a. It's real. And not even just taste it. Just spin on it like this. The guy from behind are. Wouldn't it be cool? It's not like we just took an idea about dispensary rescue with me fighting the spots leading it. Bringing John briefing in. All right, John, go in.
C
I'm.
A
I'm just in the van. You know they have a person watching. I can't believe he's doing that. Just be me.

Exactly. Cool idea.
C
He has the energy of like OG and that Nova commercial that we. That we did. Give me a.
A
Give me that.
C
Shut up.
A
Exactly. All right. Let's get out of here. Oh, we haven't mentioned it on here. I do not go to DTPG anymore. I do not support DTPG dispensary anymore. OG was. Let's just call it let go
B
after
A
turning that place around. No, no. Hate to these guys. I just won't go there anymore. Because that's the only reason I went to port my homie Spot. And mommy's not there anymore. Why would I go do all this free content for five years anymore? I've never. I do everything for free. Because it's OG I wanna. That's my homie want to help his spot out. Make his tight. I don't know. Not saying anything wrong. All I'm saying is if he doesn't work there anymore, I will not be going there anymore. And the reason I brought it up because I get DMs every day. Are there still proper papers for free at dtbg? Because that's the spot. So geez. My I'm yellow boxes. Every patient give me some papers. So people hit me up. Are they still there? And I was supplying them like yeah, yeah, they're still there. Go to ddbg. That's why I'm saying it. I'm not going there anymore. I'm not going to be doing free papers anymore. I'll find another spot. Just throwing it out there, guys. For everyone out there. Just throwing it out there. He does not work there anymore. No. That's all I'm going to say. Nothing wrong. It's not like they got mad at each other. Oh gee left.
B
It's over.
A
But the whole reason why I went there is because OG Yeah. So no guys, I won't be working there. Working them with them anymore.
C
No.
A
I've never dropped a joint really. Let alone. I've dropped a couple joints ash my whole shirt the whole way down.
C
Yeah, that was a critical drop. It's still burning.
A
Oh man. As I'm talking about. And no no cool people there. Nice people there. They're all cool. They're all. I've known them for five years. I'm just saying I'm not going there anymore. That's all. I won't be doing free Pop ups there anymore. That's it.
B
Hold on.
C
Yeah, me either.
A
Yeah. Whoa. Weird. Okay. Damn. I haven't. I can't tell you the last time I've dropped a joint. Maybe. Maybe 10, maybe when I started smoking weed is the last time I drive a joint. During the videos where I'm falling and passing. I still hang on to the joy.
C
Every time I don't drop it, I accidentally. I was in New Jersey for like three months. No weed. Came back. Got in the car with my homeboy, spun around the block, hit the blunt for the first time in months, accidentally dropped it out the window when I was ashing it. Only for us to turn the corner directly into a police. Police roadblock.
A
Good thing.
C
So what a hero I am.
A
You basically put this out is what you're saying. Not smoke the rest of this. That's not what I'm saying though. There. It's the ass of it.
