[Eric]

Do you think Helen Keller was a real person? No.

[Marty]

You're telling me she can't see or hear or feel or nothing?

[Eric]

She can feel.

[Marty]

She can feel, but she's like, what?

[Eric]

She got braille? She. She book. They said she invented braille. Yeah. Like literally. That's what I'm saying.

[Marty]

How is that even possible if she can't hear? Ready?

[Eric]

Can't see.

[Marty]

Hey, ready? Have a conversation with me.

[Eric]

[Marty]

That's it. I have. I can't do anything. Dude, let's lead a conversation that way. Oh, you can.

[Thomas]

Perfect.

[Marty]

Perfect, Perfect, Perfect. What's up, everybody? Welcome back to the Dope As Usual podcast. My name is Thomas Dopos. Yolo, whatever you want to call me. This is my co host, Marty o'. Neill.

[Thomas]

What's up, guys?

[Marty]

What's up, guys?

[Thomas]

We're back.

[Marty]

We're back. I don't know what installment this is, but this is the Dope As Usual podcast. We're here to talk about life, drugs, problems, accomplishments, and everything in between. And I talked about it recently. I haven't said the intro like that. And for how long. I don't know why. My bad. We're back. And we're also back. I don't know what installment this is, but please welcome back Eric Kung.

[Eric]

Hey.

[Marty]

Thank you.

[Eric]

Thank you.

[Marty]

Clapping.

[Eric]

Is this like third or fourth? I don't know.

[Marty]

It's got to be more than that.

[Eric]

Yeah. Because we've had to be. We've had the multi episodes where like there's a couple people going, oh, you're right.

[Marty]

Just you being here. Maybe this. Maybe the fourth time.

[Eric]

Fourth is a good number, man.

[Thomas]

Yeah. No, he's like grown up on the show like he was before he moved out here.

[Eric]

Oh, yeah. And it doesn't feel like they're being spammed. I feel like they're maybe once a year. So it's like, yeah, we good? You know what I mean? For sure. Yeah, you're right.

[Marty]

Before we moved here.

[Eric]

That's nuts. Yeah.

[Marty]

Those are like four years lying about living in Arizona.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Biggest, best lie. Did you know that? The best lie anyone's ever told and kept going. I thought this man lived in Arizona for so long. Like, he's always got like Texas flags behind him in shots. Like, oh, a lot of Arizona, Texas pride. Sick. And then some kid ratted you out, right?

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. It was the water. They're like, dude, how do you have that water? And it was only sold in Texas. And I was like, oh, well, because you can explain, like, the flags are like, oh, I still rep the teams that I like and everything. And then it was like, why do you have water from Texas?

[Marty]

Do you ever have dreams where you like accidentally murder somebody and like, how do I cover it up? You ever have those dreams?

[Eric]

Oh, no, I think the most recent, like craziest dream I had, like that. That was. I don't know what I did, but I woke up in jail and I

[Marty]

was like, oh, wait, in the dream you woke up?

[Eric]

Yeah, like in the dream I woke up and I was like, no way. You know, I was like, nah. And it was like so lucid that I remember. I was like, I can just pinch myself and wake up. Like, duh. And I started pinching myself and I was like, I started pinching myself, like all over. And I was like, what the did I do? I thought I like just blacked out and woke up in jail and I was like, I did some awful. I guess it was crazy scary feeling. Yeah. I woke up like sweating, damn near crying.

[Thomas]

I was like, was it an American jail because you've been around the world so you're drinking was.

[Eric]

It was an American jail because it was looking a little rough. It was a little rough in there for sure. I was looking like the holding little area with all the other prisoners, you know, before you wake up. Yeah. And I was like, no way, guys.

[Marty]

No, dude, I've been having. I have a lot of those dreams where I. I'll murder somebody by accident.

[Eric]

And they go, by accident.

[Marty]

How do I clean this up? And then I think of everything. I thought go, well, they saw him come in. There's a ring camera next door. His phone locate.

[Eric]

I'm fucked up nowadays. It's cooked. You can't. You can't get away with it.

[Marty]

You cannot get away with it unless somebody doesn't want to catch you. Like the phone is the ultimate ping. Like your phone was pinged at 322. She died at 321. Same spot. Like a.

[Eric]

Or it's like. Yeah, you always hear those stats where it's like something percent of murders go unsolved in Chicago and LA. It's like 60, 70%. It's like how. It's like more than half a messed up. Yeah, I guess so.

[Marty]

But like in movies like, hey, find that camera. That camera, that camera. He took his mask off at 13.

[Eric]

Then they do the enhance and it's

[Marty]

like they can find every color espionage, but they can't find these murders.

[Thomas]

What if I just leave my phone at home and I go do my

[Eric]

crime for sure that's a classic one. Yeah. You've seen some of those? I watch a lot of those true crime ones.

[Marty]

Yes.

[Eric]

And they're. Those are the ones that are like, try to outsmart them. And they're all cocky and they're like, yeah, go ahead and try to find the footage.

[Marty]

That's when I was moving into a new apartment with Rosie. It was like 10 years ago in my dream. And this landlord just started trying to, like, choke me.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

I just beat his ass to death with this thing. And as he's bleeding out, I'm like, soak blood, chop him up, put him in a basket. They're gonna show me, leave the apartment with a big ass thing.

[Eric]

Yeah. And then you gotta do like. Yeah, I think chopping them up smart. Like multiple trash bags kind of thing. Like. Like you're doing it normally over the

[Marty]

course of, like, eight days in my backpack, so it looks like nothing.

[Eric]

Sometimes you get joked, though. Like, sometimes they're like, there's a random dumpster diver and then they find a leg and, oh, I would never go to the dumpster.

[Marty]

I will take the time and go to the middle of the ocean and drop that out. Come on.

[Eric]

But then, like, it's just so unlucky. Like, some kids gonna be swimming and they're like, a leg.

[Marty]

I found a leg.

[Eric]

It's like, oh, come on. Like, if the Mafia wouldn't do it,

[Marty]

I'm gonna just cement it.

[Eric]

Oh, the cement.

[Marty]

By the time they. By the time they get it, I'll be 90.

[Thomas]

You can't just set a little fire.

[Marty]

You could do a little fire, but they always find bone. They always find something.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

This is a weird way to start this episode. Sorry, I just get away with murder.

[Eric]

You can't. Is that.

[Marty]

Honestly, I just think you should just do it in a group of other hoodlums and then nobody ever goes to jail. Nobody ever gets caught for that one dude, like eight dudes or something. I don't know.

[Eric]

It's probably cheaper than you think. Like, you can go to, like, the inner city of la. Like, I got five bands. They're like, sure.

[Marty]

Oh, for. That's different.

[Thomas]

We watched.

[Marty]

We watched a clip on Unrestricted last week. This. These guys are recording, you know, out their window, and there's this older black, like, homeless guy. And the guy in the driver's like, so I need help. He goes, oh, I do w. Work this. That. I can do this. I can do that. He goes, I need you to kill him. And he doesn't see the camera.

[Eric]

Oh, I'VE seen this clip and he's like, how old is he?

[Marty]

They're like, how are they over the age of five? Let's go. That's the cut off if you're seven. Watch the out. That's all I gotta say. And then he goes, how much you gonna pay for me? Remember you saw.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And he says 100.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And he just reaches for the door immediately to get in the car. That man can help you out with your everything. And you don't know he'll murder you.

[Eric]

Hundred, Damn.

[Marty]

Fifteen hundred. Like I already live outside, dog. If I go inside, at least it's better than this.

[Eric]

Yeah, for 1500 he's ratting on you for sure when he gets caught, like, no doubt.

[Marty]

But I will say, these dreams, these dreams rock. I was just talking about it. Do you have hella dreams? Do you dream every time you sleep?

[Eric]

Nah, not every time. For sure, not every time.

[Marty]

I'll dream the second I fall asleep in the car. Within. Within a minute, I'm having a full dream.

[Eric]

Damn, that's awesome. It is. I do feel like I dream more during like nap time. You're right. Like a daytime sleep.

[Marty]

Like if I'm dreaming randomly.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Or anything like.

[Eric]

Yeah, it's random. If I like, if I'm like, oh, let me take this bonger to go to sleep. I never dream, but if I fall asleep, like naturally, maybe I'm like a little sober.

[Marty]

Oh, really?

[Eric]

For sure.

[Marty]

Oh, I don't think that's ever affected me like that. I just feel like they say you only dream in certain parts of sleep. I'll dream if I've slept for three minutes. But it's always so bad because I wake up in a panic like, oh, I'm not being chased by a gang banger.

[Eric]

Or maybe I wonder if it's. If I dream and I don't remember it, but am I really dreaming? If you don't remember. Do you have lucid dreams every once in a while? Yeah, every once in a while. Super lucid.

[Marty]

Yeah. I used to do weird in my dream where I could just start. All right, I'm gonna go fly, dude. Yeah, dude.

[Eric]

I think the first time I ever lucid dreamed just to make sure it was really happening. Oh. Oh. That's how I knew I was like a little freaked out kid. I was like 17 or 18 or something like that. And then I was like outside my childhood house and I was like, like, I've definitely been here before. And there was this lady like walking her baby or something and I was like, man, if I'm lucid dreaming, she'll be naked right now. And then, boom, she just naked. And I was like, yeah. I was like, this is in the mom. I was like, this is like, yeah, this is awesome.

[Marty]

I knew I was dreaming when I'd grab the ground and it would move as if I grabbed a blanket. So I grabbed the ground like this. I start throwing myself, like, over the town and, like, land. And I'd land on the ground. Man, that shit's when you're like a fat, slow person. You can fly in your dreams. Like, that's all I want to do.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

So fun. Anyway, weird ass way to start. What's up, dude? I want to talk about technology because you said you have an app coming out.

[Eric]

Yes, yes, I do.

[Marty]

What is. Please explain all of this.

[Eric]

Yeah, it's been. It's been under development for, I feel, like, so long. And what really accelerated it to this point where it's almost about to be ready is. Oh, thank you, my friend.

[Marty]

It's ready.

[Eric]

Robots and technology. Okay, cool.

[Marty]

No, no, sorry, sorry. I just clicked it. Oh, it's gonna buzz. You have an app?

[Eric]

Yes. App is gonna be a glass marketplace that connects buyers to smoke shops. So there's already a couple apps that

[Marty]

work on this for a long time.

[Eric]

Super long time. Dude. Hired a team, like, two years ago. Two years ago. Hired a team for it. And the worst thing about hiring a team is that it just takes so long for. I was like. I remember very vividly where I almost just gave up on the development, where I was like, hey, I don't really like the color scheme. You guys think we can change it to, like, a dark mode? And they're like, yeah, it's probably going to take like two weeks. And I was like, yeah, literally it's been like a month and a year. And I was like, all right, you know what?

[Marty]

Well, just for dark mode.

[Eric]

Just for dark mode, they're like, dude, we're going to have to change everything. And I was like, bro, this is ridiculous. Like, there's got to be, like, a quicker way to do this. Within the past year, vibe coding has come out, and that's really accelerated the growth. And then now I'm ready to, like, bring it back to a team and human hands so that they can make sure it's all good to go. But yeah, vibe coding, bro. Just all of that AI stuff in general is, like, ridiculous right now.

[Marty]

The world is all right. I know.

[Thomas]

That's what I'm here.

[Marty]

Keep hearing his name constantly, like, what is it?

[Thomas]

What does Vibe code mean? Give me the like dummies version of what that means.

[Eric]

So Vibe coding is basically telling an AI agent is what you call them. So Claude is one of them. Google has Gemini. They. You're telling an agent what you want to build and it does it just like you tell it, hey, you're a full stack developer. Do this for me. And it builds the whole thing for you Mexicans from the front to the

[Marty]

back to tell what you want.

[Eric]

The logic tile.

[Marty]

You want.

[Eric]

Yeah, you want to change a color. You want to change like this thing a couple pixels down. It's like, sure. And it does it immediately, within like 30 seconds. And it's just made this whole process so much easier. And there's a lot of websites like it. There's. There's a lot of competitors. They're all competing with each other to pretty much do the same thing. And it's gotten to a point where I've talked to real, like, developers that have been in computer science and majored in it for like 10 years, and they've been doing it and they're saying that in their teams, in their startups and even their big companies, they're using Vibe coding instead of real coding. Like it's. It's just easier. Like it's almost archaic to type out line character by character on a keyboard. Like, it doesn't even make sense. Like, why would you. If it's 100 texts, but how long

[Marty]

using that until people don't know how to code anymore?

[Eric]

I mean, it's perhaps soon. That's like the whole thing with. You ever heard of AGI?

[Marty]

Like the, the health drinks.

[Eric]

So AGI is this. It's like a theoretical state of AI.

[Marty]

Sorry, my bad, my bad, my bad.

[Eric]

Oh, I know what you're talking about. It's like this theoretical state of AI that all of the companies are actively working towards. Like, they say it's their goal and it's to make it so that AI doesn't need human interaction anymore. Like, it can learn itself, it can teach itself, it can understand context and things.

[Marty]

I'm living outside.

[Thomas]

Oh, general intelligence, right?

[Eric]

Isn't that what it is? Yes, yes, yes. It's like, yeah, it stands for maybe generative intelligence or something like that, but it gets to a point, basically the line is when it doesn't need humans anymore for input or like when it can teach itself. Like when it can run in the background. And it's pretty close to that. I don't know if you've heard of this like, Claude, co worker, Perplexity computer, which is insane. You just give it access to your computer and it does.

[Marty]

Fuck no.

[Eric]

I have a homie. I have a homie who linked it up to his Tinder and he said he hasn't gotten laid more in his life. The robot, it's just getting matches left and right. It generates the pictures, raises them fucking right, left and right. And he just checks it once a day. Has all these match. He's like, I'll pick this one.

[Marty]

He's got a piece of robot. She's gross. She's gross. She's gross. She's a click. Yes, yes. Yeah. That's why all these, like, he goes through their profile like, she's such a hoe. This is the one for you. What if it's searching all her social media posts she's ever posted? Here's 86. You know, she's got a bang, dude. I like it. I don't though, but I like.

[Thomas]

Are you using the. Because I know, like, Claude is like, all right, now it's built into your email. It's built in.

[Eric]

It's built in everywhere. It's kind of ridiculous actually.

[Thomas]

Are you using it like that?

[Eric]

Not yet. Not yet. I almost don't trust it yet to like, read all my sensitive information and stuff. You know what I mean? It's like I'm. Yeah, I don't know, dude.

[Marty]

I'm afraid of an AI taking vengeance on me and just like start spamming racist and emails.

[Eric]

No. Yeah, digs up my Xbox 2013, like game files and stuff. And like, we know what you said when you were 14, use the F

[Marty]

word and not 100 times a day.

[Thomas]

Actually, we made a highlight reel.

[Marty]

Eric. Did you just see his haircut change over the years?

[Eric]

Slowly older, slowly older. But yeah, you can actually, you can go to the app right now. It's live and it's. There's like a little wait list and stuff. You can preview it. Yeah, if you go to Glass Hex app, you'll see what this. What these AI are capable of, man.

[Marty]

Your phone just makes a compilation of every time. You said some bullshit with your phone in front of you. Yo, my shit would never end. Every two seconds even. It's not that bad. I'm like, you motherfucker.

[Thomas]

It's Glass. What?

[Eric]

Glass X app.

[Marty]

Yeah, this is the same app.

[Eric]

You're same name and same everything. Dude, took forever. Now it's finally almost live. You can go get on the waitlist, secure your username and everything right now.

[Marty]

So he's gonna hook you up. So basically, check this out. Ready? I want to buy glass. I go on glass x.com, right?

[Eric]

GlassX app. Yes, yes, yes, app.

[Marty]

Okay. GlassX.com was taken.com.

[Eric]

yeah.

[Marty]

And I have 300 bucks. I put in a price and go, all these rigs. Cool. But this one's based. Oh, this one's in Texas. So now it takes me to the shop in Texas.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And I talk to them.

[Eric]

Yeah. Or you don't have to shop. You don't have to talk to them if you don't want to. You can just buy it and then they'll get.

[Marty]

Oh, ship it to you.

[Thomas]

Yes.

[Eric]

It's ebay. You don't have to measure them if you don't want to or anything like that. If you scroll down, I think under the join the way, they can click preview the app.

[Marty]

Is it. Is it like bidding or did you just buy it?

[Eric]

There is going to be a bidding system, but for the most part it's just going to be sales. There's gonna be no system and such. So, yeah, these are just all just mock data. Right now we're working with, I think, three glass shops to get it just like onboarded and everything. But we're gonna have the categories and everything. You can click on one.

[Marty]

This doesn't take away from a glass shop or a seller. It just actually promotes you more to

[Eric]

their little, like, repertoire.

[Marty]

Yes. Like, oh, well, at least we got that sale from that site.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

[Marty]

And it's just paying you to do an ad. To do a thing for my shop.

[Eric]

Exactly. It's going to be one. And it's easy for the consumer too, because I'm sure you get asked all the time, hey, where do you get this Glass? Where do you get this?

[Marty]

Everything's there.

[Eric]

Everything's there for you. And it's gonna be pretty sick. And there's other. There's like competitors kind of to it right now, but it's really like peer to peer markets. So other apps exist, but you're really only buying from other people. And then that adds a layer of like, see? Exactly. That's like the immediate reaction that I see.

[Marty]

People like, this guy scammed me for 1800.

[Eric]

Exactly. That's like the worst. And yeah, and it's secondhand glass, which is cool. You can trust them to, like, clean it and take care of it. But how trustworthy is that person?

[Marty]

I don't like secondhand stores. I don't want to buy a shirt somebody else sweated and threw up in

[Eric]

or especially A piece that someone else hit, put their lips on. And I mean like you can use as much ISO as you want.

[Marty]

Oh, Rick, what if your was molded and then now it's like crc?

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

What did this look like yesterday?

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. I don't know. But yeah, it's going to be a way for you to connect to glass shops, specifically head shops that have already been in the game.

[Marty]

So every head shop should be running to you 100%.

[Eric]

100%.

[Marty]

I would.

[Eric]

That's what I'm saying. Especially in the. I think it's, it's more of a thing for like, I want to say the ecosystem, glasses, you know. You know what kind of economy we're in right now. Like luxury things are kind of the first things to go. People get rid of their watches first and their expensive glass first. Like, you know, they're not going to sell their houses or cars first. So the whole luxurious industry is kind of getting down right now and we're trying to bring it back up. You know, we're trying to get liquidity back in the glass marketplace and pieces moving again.

[Marty]

And kind of rigs, you guys, what kind of rigs are you guys trying to sell on there?

[Eric]

All kinds of rigs. So like small, like, I don't want to say entry glass, artists, expensive glass for sure. Motherships and fucking elbows and this and that. It's going to be from. From a company that knows how to ship glass. You know what I mean? You don't have to worry about that as well. Like this is a head shop that's been in business for however many years. They ship so many pieces, they know how to package your stuff. Which I feel like is the other big problem with the peer to peer marketplaces is that you don't know how they're going to package your. Like, what if the piece was cool and then it arrives, you know, And

[Marty]

I'm going to be honest. Ready? You bought my mothership? Peer to peer. I ship it, I wrap it and I know how to ship glass. I wrap it. I wrap it and you tell me it came broken. I don't trust you.

[Eric]

Exactly. Exactly. 100.

[Marty]

What do you think? You sent it broken. And I'm like, what? Yeah, what? And little we know there's some careless texting. Works for the fucking post office. Just threw your package on the porch.

[Eric]

That's the worst.

[Marty]

So when it comes to peer to peer, it's like buying weed online.

[Eric]

It's a lot of room for error. I want to say it's not exactly inherently Bad. But there's just a lot. A lot of headache that could potentially be there for, like, the owner of the side, the buyers, sellers. Like, everything is just like.

[Marty]

Did you ever sell weed when you were younger?

[Eric]

No. No. Yeah.

[Marty]

Wow. Fuck yeah, dude.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Thomas]

Yeah.

[Eric]

I always had regular ass, dude. I was always working, like, what was the minimum wage in Texas? I was working, like, 750A. Because I had homies that sell and they would, I feel like, always get caught up. It was like, 100%. Yeah. Especially in Texas. I feel like it'd be like a 95% hit rate. Like, at least they would get caught up once or they would have to stop selling or they would have to. And they weren't, like, big level trappers. These guys are moving, like, a few grams, you know what I'm saying? They're still getting caught up. So I was like, you know what? Doesn't seem like it's really worth it to do all that. Doesn't seem like. So it just never really, like, crossed my mind. I was like, dude, I'm saying, oh. So the PG as I can.

[Marty]

The reason I ask is talking about shipping. Like, I sold hello weed. I never really shipped anything, right? Ever. Because it was just a hassle. Like, what if it doesn't make it?

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And then one time I gave in, right? And I shipped this one. Dude, he wanted the exotics back when weed was, like, expensive. He said, I want a QP of this, I want a QP of that. I want a QP of this. And I think, in reality, it cost me, like, four bands. I ended up charging him, like, 65, and he was fine with it, Right. So I sent it twice, and twice it made it like, this is cool, dude.

[Eric]

Nuts.

[Marty]

Yeah. I can just not worry about it. And he has to send them. This is sick. And then I sent the bigger one. It was, like, 14 bands worth of QP and it never landed.

[Eric]

Oh, what did it say on the. On the tracking? Did it ever say anything?

[Marty]

It said landed. Oh, but he has a rain cat. He was there all day.

[Eric]

Yeah. So you don't think he, like, finessed you? Like, he actually.

[Marty]

No, no, man. Went, sounds soft. I'm gonna take this.

[Eric]

Damn. And it's crazy how often that happens. Like, actually. How often?

[Marty]

Half the time for sure. But I remember thinking, this guy's out for. And this is before I was like. I was, like, trying to make my rent. Like, all right, I need to make this much money to make my rent. Like, I was not making a lot of money at the time. So I think he just lost $14,000. In all actuality, he didn't. I gained 2k, you know, like, I already got his money and sent it. And I sent it. Take a video, took a picture. I'm not a piece of.

[Eric]

Right, right, right.

[Marty]

And it never made it. My homie at the time was doing boxes and then filling it with foam. You ever see that?

[Eric]

Oh, no, no. That's tech.

[Marty]

So. So he would put a box. Right, right. Foam it with everything. Super triples vac, sealed foam it. And it hardens in the box. Oh, and he puts another bigger box. And then around that foam, he'll, like, make it look packaging and then put it in a regular box so it just looks like a box and packaging, but like, oh, there's two layers.

[Eric]

Layers of. In there.

[Marty]

And then in here was about almost 15 bands, like, of QPs and this and ounces of this and bends and that.

[Eric]

Damn, that's great. That reminds me of when I used to buy fake IDs for me and the homies. Yeah. If anything. Yeah, yeah. Because you. That or just for. For drinking.

[Marty]

That's what I'm saying. But I thought Texas was like, come in, kid.

[Eric]

That's what it would be in some places. For sure. That's gonna be in some places.

[Marty]

But then you've never seen pornography. Yeah, dude.

[Eric]

But, yeah, I remember. I would remember getting these. It would be like a hat, and then under, like, three layers of like. You'd have to tear some shit off. And then there would be the IDs, like, in the side of the idea.

[Marty]

I would just give you an id. Ruin my hat.

[Eric]

No, that's how you'd get them. So I'd buy like 12 at a time and then just sell them in real life to the homies. You know what I mean? Like, here you go.

[Marty]

Their faces on it already.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, they pay me before. And then I'd get it, and then, you know.

[Marty]

You were a fucking fraud. Connect wasn't fraud.

[Eric]

It was hyp. I think it was more than seven years ago. So it's past a little limitation.

[Marty]

That's the only reason I brought up the. How long ago was this? I was in Merced. So we're good. So wait.

[Eric]

Yeah, it was hilarious.

[Marty]

Your homies would all go, hey, I want my name to be Muhammad. Exactly right.

[Eric]

I'd be like, yeah, I got you, bro. How tall you want to be?

[Marty]

How did not work.

[Eric]

Nah, they always landed. They always. It always wouldn't. Or not always. It only wouldn't Work when the bouncers were just kind of being. And they would do the bend test. They never passed the bend test. But they scanned, they scanned, they swiped. Yeah, it would just snap right in that.

[Marty]

Oh, dude, come on, man. You can do this to a card. It won't break. You ever try to throw away a dead debit card?

[Eric]

Oh, that's impossible. Yeah, back and forth it would get like. I think the layering would almost come off. Like the laminate and then like, and then it just sitting down. But it would scan. If they had like a little scan of the app, it always scanned. It always. Yeah, it scanned and swiped. So like you could go to like a dispensary almost anywhere.

[Marty]

Yeah, you could go to a lot of person going.

[Eric]

Except like an asshole bouncer. Exactly 100. The worst part about that whole thing though was, was that I bought all of them for that whole like few month span. I was doing it for everyone. All in bitcoin. So those are really just like six figure fake IDs probably or something. Probably not six figure, but it was probably like a ridiculous number.

[Marty]

I remember fake ID connect. That's sick. I never had a fake id. We just counted on more homeless to want change. Oh, but hey, we just call going fishing. Yeah, yeah. And we just go like, hey man, we'll give you this change if you buy us beer. And 80% of the time they would say no.

[Eric]

Oh, yeah, it was. I. Yeah.

[Marty]

What the.

[Eric]

I think I've. Dude, I think before I started doing that fake ID stuff, I tried to do that a couple times and they would literally always say no.

[Marty]

Be like, all right, I don't understand why.

[Eric]

Yeah, I don't get it either, you know, But I. Low key. I think I've only done that once. Like someone has asked me to do that and I've only done it once.

[Marty]

Oh, I would never do that. I would never do that as a kid. That's up. Even though I'm like. And now I'm like, hey, get it, dude. I'm going to jail for some little Mexican or what if.

[Eric]

Could you imagine if it was a fed or something?

[Marty]

If it was like. And I me, little me was like, I work for the cop. I'm getting sworn, dude. I remember one time, the only time I felt weird about it, there's this kid named Sean the kid. That's the story time where this guy was like, hey man, get me a job. I don't know if I can. He's like, I'm gonna kill you. Then he's like, Give me the job or I'll kill you. What the. He's tweaking again. Anyway, that kid Sean, one time we were going to fish. We were fishing at Circle G in my town for an hour, dude. For a hour. Asking people at this point like, damn, hey, man, you think about everybody? Nope, nope. Like, and this one, like 30 year old lady. Sean was like a pretty kid, but he was 15. She was being kind of like, oh, hey. I'm like. First I'm like, damn, Sean, you're cool, dude. And then the second thought, like, you're a pedophile. And then she goes. And she like touched his arm and I went, oh, what do you guys need to go? Oh, lady, I love you. I don't care if you're a creep, you're gonna buy this for us. She went in and bought us for. And bought us a 30 pack with her own money.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

Then she came out and like, like, thank you. And like did the whole chest to the.

[Eric]

Oh, damn.

[Marty]

I was like, give me the beer, dude. I'm gonna go away because you're gonna rape. Are you gonna rape my friend, dude? And then she's like, don't, don't drive. Promise. And then she walked off and, like, kept looking back like, you could bang this woman right now. And she bought 30 pack. I need to lose weight, dude. Like, we almost look alike. Dog. You're just fucking buff. Anyway, I remember getting so fed up.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

After those times, I would just the one time I did, I felt so stupid. Look at me, dude. I don't look like an adult now. So imagine me at 15. Like, I remember, I walk, I'm holding two 30 packs in line. And I might just say, you've written your idea in the car. And I'm sitting there, like, the guy's like, he sees me like six people back and I get to the front. As I get to the front, he's like, so how old are you, man? I go, 24.

[Eric]

The Pat Classic.

[Marty]

So the car, he goes, all these for you? Don't worry. Go get it. Be right back, man. I walked out. Just walk.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. He's got a damp. Yes. Dude.

[Marty]

It's so embarrassing because that's like the story go to all the time. They know I have a backpack on outside. Yeah, I just took the back. Like opposite of Superman. Like, damn, that's an adult dog. He doesn't have a backpack. Anyway, so you're a. Not a scammer. You're a real. You come through.

[Eric]

You're not. I was coming through. 100. I was coming through.

[Marty]

They were getting after high and told a whole story randomly. Wow. My bad. So you're what, 16? Getting your homies fake IDs? Yeah, they always worked unless they broke. What's the. The weed situation like in San Antonio? You're not selling weed, so you're working where and selling weed?

[Eric]

I'm working at. I'm working at Popeyes.

[Marty]

Oh, no.

[Eric]

With my homies. And we're gonna bro. So it's like fun though, with your friends. Dude. It was. It makes you guys hilarious. It was hilarious. So it was like our junior year, I think maybe our junior year of high school. And then they had just built a new Popeyes, like right next to the school. So we were like, bro it, let's all apply. We all got the job. It was like me and five homies

[Marty]

were like, they just hired a bunch

[Eric]

of underachieving, like, just a bunch of stoners.

[Marty]

Yeah, but those are the best workers. Sometimes. Damn near they're going to show up because they need weed money for sure.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. Not damn near. And we would just. We would that place up.

[Marty]

What's the craziest thing you made yourself? Because I know you were that up.

[Eric]

You would just. Yeah, I'd make some diabolical. Yeah. Because at the end of the night they'd just be like, yeah, big box. And we're like, oh, yeah, that's a bad version.

[Marty]

Did you trade that? Loaded it or whatever?

[Eric]

I did, yeah, A couple times. For sure. I would have the homies deliver me weed in the drive through.

[Marty]

But here's your food, sir.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, a little extra 20 or 30 in there. And I'd be like, oh, thanks.

[Marty]

What the. Good. You can make fun at jobs you don't like. You really can.

[Eric]

Especially when you're younger like that and you're like, man, I don't have anything

[Marty]

to do after this. So, yeah, this is my fun.

[Eric]

Yeah. When people would piss me off, I would like, I'd be like, hey, let me make their food. And then I would always. I would do something. It wouldn't be awful. I wouldn't spin it in or rub it around, like on the ground or anything. I think the thing I did the most was like, people like love the biscuits there. I would just like crumble the fuck out of the biscuit and like sprinkle it on and then just give it back to him in the drive thru. Because I be like, you sell your food. It's not like I did anything crazy. Got hurt in the transit.

[Marty]

Most people Rather get spit. Like, at least give me the biscuit. That's the only reason you go to Popeyes Crush.

[Eric]

Crumbled? Yeah, like, crumbled, bro. It was like a little, you know, like muffins break apart. It looked like some muffin bits in the box. No one ever complained. No one ever went back, and they're like, hey, my biscuit was all up. They just assumed it, like, broke down in the box by the time they got back home.

[Marty]

So. That's the worst thing you ever did.

[Eric]

Yeah, I never, like, I always felt like a weird thing of karma. I was like, dude, I know if I go to somewhere else, like, my food's gonna be so. I never. With a food like, that bad.

[Marty]

Yeah, I've never with anyone's food. But I am a. My. I'm a. My boss showed me how to take a piece of pizza out of a piece without a pizza without noticing. Oh, he's a genius.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

And it works, man.

[Eric]

Just like, space it a little.

[Marty]

No, what you do is you cut it and then you cut a super skinny slice like that thick. And what you do. What you do is you do one on the other side and it pushes together. Perfect. Notice.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

And if it's bad, just put a little bit of cheese on it while it's still hot. It'll melt them.

[Eric]

Yeah, just melt right in between.

[Marty]

Wow. You know how many times I've done that? It's up, dude.

[Eric]

I wonder. I wonder how many times I've ordered a doordash and they've, like, taken a couple fries.

[Marty]

Gross.

[Eric]

It probably happens a lot, bro. They're probably getting in there, right? No doubt.

[Marty]

Camper seal.

[Eric]

Yeah, Those come in clutch. Those come in clutch.

[Thomas]

Do you. How often do you guys doordash and eat out per week? Like, is it daily or is it like.

[Marty]

Marty, Marty, you have a schedule. What do you wake up at the same time every day?

[Eric]

Try to about. I just try to do before 9. That's like my rule. It give me, like, 7, 8, 8 38, 45.

[Marty]

You need to go to bed at, like, 5.

[Eric]

Nah, I try not to go to bed at 5. No more. Okay. But.

[Marty]

All right, I'll get on. It's up at like, 5. Because he goes to bed. He's on it. He's on it. He's on it. Drinks my coffee. My digestion is moving at the same time. That's just crazy. It matters. It's cool. Marty. Yes. We're eating out every day, man. We just ate out right now. I know. Classic constant doordash like, it's so sad.

[Thomas]

I never doordash, but I go out to eat.

[Eric]

Yeah. Frequently. Yeah. Yeah, Same, same. I probably. I don't doordash every day, but I definitely go out to eat every day. Go somewhere.

[Marty]

Oh, well, pull up there. Cooking every single thing. When I. When I make food at the house consistently, you're locked in. It's the last time the Raiders were a winning team. That's. I'll tell you that, man.

[Eric]

He's got the number one pitch pick. They did, Fernando.

[Marty]

They did, man. It's always great. We got the number one pick. Why? Because we're the worst. All right, well, that's cool, man. You know the Raiders. At least you got first in something, dude.

[Eric]

Mendoza.

[Marty]

Yeah. You know what? He's pretty Tom Brady come out of return.

[Eric]

Yeah, that's cool.

[Marty]

Snap that. Game three. Then you have an excuse to quit because this fool's doing this right now all the time. Just shaking and foaming every time he sees a football.

[Eric]

Dude. Yeah, he wants you bad.

[Marty]

Could you imagine being the best ever and going, I'm done? Nah. Also, I'm gonna be around it all the time and talk about other people.

[Eric]

Are you, like, damn near give up your family for one more run and

[Marty]

they love you and they left it. Dude, he's got another seven years left.

[Thomas]

Yeah.

[Marty]

If he could just stand in the pocket and not have to move too much, he's got another six to seven. Damn it. I thought rock was gonna at least six to eight years left. Damn it. I feel like Tom Brady.

[Eric]

That was probably, like, the one woman who he couldn't do that to because she was richer than him. She was right.

[Marty]

Is she.

[Eric]

She's riches. Yeah. Giselle. She was like, the number one model in the world for like, a decade. She's rich, dude. Look up. Look up. Gazelle. Net worth. I don't even know her last south

[Marty]

park version of that. No, which one?

[Eric]

Which one?

[Marty]

Talking about Tom Brady and his wife. No, Cartman just keeps doing the Tom Brady thing. He's like, the end. He's like, I'm Tom Brady. I'm cool. I'm hot. I'm rich. I'm gonna go home. And my hot wife that kind of looks like a dude. And he keeps saying it throughout the episode. It's really funny.

[Thomas]

A modest 400 million.

[Marty]

Oh, my God. Wait.

[Eric]

On her own? Damn. Yeah. Before. I'm pretty sure she was rich. Before Tom Brady. Before the divorce.

[Thomas]

Successful modeling career.

[Marty]

Like, no. How much did she have for this? How much has she made?

[Eric]

Look at the last sentence. Her wealth is entirely separate from that of Tom Brady, who's net worth is approximately 1, 250. She probably didn't even. She probably didn't even want a. A what's it called? A prenup. Because she would lose more than him.

[Marty]

Are you ready though? Fuck AI, guys. We're talking about how AI helps apps. Well, fuck AI. You're telling me Tom Brady's only worth $250 million? That's a fucking lie. Look it up again, please. AI's feminism. AI's family. Yeah, that might feminism today. Besides her husband.

[Eric]

Career having money.

[Thomas]

Because now I just. Now I search just Tom Brady and it says 3 to 350 there.

[Marty]

See? It's already over. It's already 40 higher. I don't believe that. I believe he's worth more than that.

[Thomas]

What career?

[Marty]

Like for sure it's Tom Brady with his endorsements alone. How much did he get to be in Ted part two? Come on. At least 800 mil, dude.

[Eric]

Right?

[Thomas]

How much could you pay him to come back? Like, how much money?

[Marty]

$100 million for him to come and pay for five years? Yeah. You pay him 20 million a year as the Raiders, you have all the publicity in the earth. Although get his world records. Like this guy's 50 throwing bombs.

[Thomas]

That's fair.

[Marty]

You ever see these guys after, like after retirement? They're with the, the sideline. They're throwing 60 yard bombs still.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, they wanted that.

[Marty]

I wonder.

[Eric]

I think you'd have to.

[Marty]

They brought out Drew Breeze before the game.

[Eric]

It's the guy.

[Marty]

You even him. They gave him the. He's. You can see him like he's like I'm wearing a suit. But ah, Drew, it's like when Nazis get around people they don't like, like. And they have to cover it up. Like imagine them in Argentina, like just piss. All these kids running around.

[Eric]

That's what they said Adolf escaped to, huh?

[Marty]

That's why. Yes, exactly. Because right now, go to a hometown buffet, there's eight Mexican kids on your chairs just bumping into you. Could you imagine? Can you imagine the restraint a Nazi has? Marty, you have no idea what I'm talking about. I was just saying some because I know Marty was like, what the. I can see Marty half the time. It'll make sense. What's up, guys?

For this portability, this size for everything, the price point, the name, the reputation, puffco is the best one to me in my eyes. Once again, shout out to everyone at PuffCo. Thank you so much. I will be a Puffco this year. Thank you for sponsoring this episode. Have a dope ass day. Back to technology. You have an app?

[Eric]

Oh, yes, yes. AI in general, I think everyone there's a. I mean I get the hate against. I think they call it generative AI.

[Marty]

I don't like fake videos.

[Eric]

Fake videos and fake art or not even fake art, fake that, that genre. I can see why people don't like it. Makes sense. Yeah, 100% like that.

[Marty]

Or have someone AI it. Like I rather have somebody come paint this.

[Eric]

100% percent. But I think there's menial tasks that AI can be used for that'll replace other jobs perhaps. But I think other jobs will open up. But I think artists cool. I think it is messed up when it replaces like artists.

[Marty]

And I'd rather have like a Marty make a flyer than an A.I. make a flyer.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. Or even like Marty like control the cameras and video editing control compared to an AI.

[Marty]

You know, I would never let AI edit our videos. Weird.

[Eric]

Dude. It's crazy.

[Marty]

You pick. That's all you're saying, like, but.

[Eric]

But when is it going to get to a point where we can ask that? And it is better than a human. Like, it analyzes every viral video ever and it's like, this is. This is it. Do you think it'll ever get to that point?

[Marty]

No, because they don't know my favorite part of the Office when I want to reference it right then and there.

[Eric]

But it can watch. Maybe it can go into all the episodes you've watched and see which part you rewatch over and over. And it's like, he likes this part. Why are your favorite episodes. Why does he like this episode more?

[Marty]

AI is a lurking. This fool. Just a friend that you don't really want over. But he's always there.

[Eric]

He's always there. He's watching.

[Marty]

You typed that wrong. Autocorrect.

[Thomas]

No friend I've been listening about. Like, you're basically in a race for this AI with these, like, the biggest companies on earth are in a race to get to that point that you're talking about.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah.

[Thomas]

And it's like the most money that's ever been involved where like, these private companies bigger than the government you guys want.

[Eric]

I don't want that.

[Marty]

Would you rather film your own video?

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

You wouldn't just like, AI me smoking a hashtag for seven minutes straight, talking about government? This is crazy.

[Eric]

That point is crazy. I think Mr. Beast talked about it how he has like this stockpiles of videos. So, like, after he's gone, it'll keep playing like he's still there. And at that point it's like, do people. Is he really even gone? You know what I mean? Because, like, if most people's vision of Mr. Beast is through a screen anyway and he keeps going, then, like, he never really dies, right?

[Marty]

Or that one YouTuber dude, that passed away like four years ago and he had 180 videos pre. Oh, pre. Films keep coming out and they're scheduled for like the next four years. I saw a piece of it and showed how long it's going to take videos to drop.

[Eric]

It's crazy.

[Marty]

Fucking awesome. That is like having your own movie. Like, don't worry, dude. 800 days I've been gone. What's up, guys? Here comes your YouTube.

[Eric]

Oh, fuck.

[Marty]

I don't like that. That's creepy.

[Eric]

That is weird.

[Marty]

But cool at the same time.

[Eric]

I don't know, the whole AI wave, I think. I think live streaming will probably be like a bigger thing in the future than it already is right now, because people Want like these real moments. Like there's gonna be so much AI on our feeds where it's like, dude, I just need something like that I know is real that I know wasn't scripted.

[Marty]

And I don't know.

[Eric]

Live streaming is scripted though. Well, think about some of the clips that you see.

[Marty]

And it's like, what do you mean, girl? Oh, your ass came out. Only 11 year olds watching that. Dude, that's. That's crazy to me. There's nobody that has the jobs.

[Eric]

Like, dude, yeah, wow. It's like the meta. It's like taking on like the live streaming little clip meta. You seen those clips looks maxing. You seen all that?

[Marty]

I mean, I see them and I keep trolling so my phone knows not to show me that. I just see this kid that keeps. He's like a shiny red face. There's something to cry and go over it. And then other guys looks nice. He like over it. I can't. I don't want my phone to think that I'm down. So I just keep scrolling past it fast.

[Eric]

No. Yeah, it's. There's like the little pockets of the Internet. It feels like where it's like, this is just brain rot. He's bad.

[Marty]

I'm out. And if I don't look at it doesn't exist. Don't. Because in my world, like that doesn't matter. It hopefully goes away because that shit's so.

[Eric]

It's crazy. Yeah.

[Marty]

I thought Supreme Patty was the bad part of the Internet. Oh, I'll take everyone, right?

[Eric]

I'll take 10 supreme and squish them

[Marty]

down for one supreme patty. Dumb guy, dude. Because he was doing some stupid. And that was 20 times better than this. The guys that I see now where they're doing weird to people in public,

[Eric]

I feel like Supreme Patty changed the landscape for like, for all of the Internet. For advert. For all the Internet. For like advertising though, specifically because his would be so shameless. Go buy this. Yeah, he'd be like, go buy this. Here's my code. And before that, he always had to be. Be subtle or people would call you a sellout. But then he started doing. And people are like, ah, I've talked.

[Marty]

I talked about this like maybe three months ago about. I think Supreme Patty was the downfall of the Internet.

[Eric]

He's the only.

[Marty]

He might be a cool guy.

[Eric]

Yeah, he might be nice.

[Marty]

I've met him before. He was genuinely nice person.

[Eric]

Good guy.

[Marty]

I think his content and what his content allowed made the Internet plummet. Because it. What happened after that Long neck.

[Eric]

Oh, I do remember those guys.

[Marty]

It turned into south park reject. It got weird, and it made everybody go. 2 million views. Get him to come into our barbecue spot and put lemon juice in his eyes and say to come to our barbecue spot. And then, you know what? We'll have social media. Now it's like, you it up.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

And then he got into the weed and just made the weed goofy. Now it's like, dog, we're the best weed company. Why? We have the most followers. Followers? Like, yard shit's the best. We have the most followers. Like, what the are you saying right now?

[Eric]

I wonder how many of these numbers are just bots, though. It almost seems like an unreal number of people, you know?

[Marty]

Yeah, for sure. But what you said he changed all of it, the advertisement, by going sell

[Eric]

out some of the numbers.

[Marty]

Yeah, that's high.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

It's like Adam Sandler and Happy Gilmore did the Cool Kids cold cut combo. That was a fun, blatant ad for Subway. And now it's like the. The. What's his name? The. The guy with the ice cream face.

[Eric]

Gucci mane with the ice cream tag.

[Marty]

White dude. Oh, that has the Gucci man tattoo. Oh, Gucci Berry. Is his name Gucci Berry? No. No way. He's a bullet. No.

[Eric]

See, that's like the parts of the Internet where you're looking up, you pull

[Marty]

it up and then Gucci Berry, white guy with mullet. I think that's his name. Name. Anyway, like, they'll do ads. He's a nice person. I met him before. But they'll do ads where it's like, his thing is he gets kicked in the dick hard. Like, people kick him. There he is. They kick him in the dick really hard, right? They kick him. I've seen this really hard. But it'll be like, hey, go try some. Some cannabis. The best in Michigan. Kick me in the dick. It's getting. You know, that's crazy.

[Eric]

I wonder how many. I wonder how much that really converts, though. Like, you might get used, like. Yeah. How many people go to your shop because you got kicked in.

[Marty]

You know what? I realized it was bad when the weed guy I know got a cameo from the Island Boys. The week they started popping and he flexed that, he got Kanye to do an ad. Island Boys, blah, blah, blah. 20, 23, big dude. I was like, dog, what the. And they said they. They sang a song. They sang a song about his brand, and they said the brand name wrong, but the way they were singing, it's like I think these guys might be. And then they started having sex with each other.

[Eric]

That I think Kanye dude. I think the greatest ad of all time might have been that Kanye super bowl ad where he like this iPhone video and he was like. He's like, just go to the website some.com. i heard he made like a bajillion dollars. Probably.

[Marty]

Probably. Could you imagine taking the ad out the biggest ad space ever and it's just you on your phone. Especially super bowl like, damn, that motherfucker's hard, bro.

[Eric]

Especially when all the other ones are like it's supposed to be the scripted like a huge 80 million dollar budget. Yeah. You're getting the craziest actors to do some things. That was even a good.

[Marty]

Might be the only guy that he's like the ultimate. I don't give a person in our generation that's ever been alive. I don't think there's anyone else that's ever been like, you're just gonna say it, huh? And thing is we'll invite you back because you're so famous.

[Eric]

Because it's gone.

[Marty]

Because you're.

[Eric]

Because he made Graduation.

[Marty]

Yo. South Park. You see the gay fish episode?

[Eric]

Of course. Classic.

[Marty]

Did you know. I don't know if you guys know this. There's a clip of him like maybe 10 years ago now.

[Eric]

Only he's like reacting to it. Right.

[Marty]

He still doesn't get it. He really doesn't get it, dude. Either he was being funny or he really just doesn't get it.

[Thomas]

I don't think he's funny like that. He's not.

[Marty]

No. I think he might be super cereal. I think he's super cereal. For sure. I think he is. I don't know.

[Thomas]

I like.

[Marty]

I like Kanye West. Maybe he shouldn't gone, you know, too hard on that German, which was called for.

[Eric]

But other than that, some crazy. Some hilarious videos did come after that. When he was talking about the doctor or whatever. He's like. I'm not gonna say the race of the Dr. Jewish.

[Marty]

Come on. Jewish dude. He's a meme. He's a meme.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Okay, let's.

[Eric]

Legendary guy.

[Marty]

Speaking of other. Ready? So we get off of Kanye. Oh yeah. Hold on real quick.

[Eric]

Shall we?

[Marty]

Can you explain it?

[Eric]

Yeah, we got a couple. It's a couple hash holes right here, man.

[Marty]

From one guy.

[Eric]

From one guy and from 5 rollers. So one guy made it happen. Got a couple rollers together and then really made this happen. So I think my favorite thing about this is at the bottom it says Collabs instead of competitions, which. Anyway, it's. It's its own competition right here. You know, they're gonna compete against each other and stuff.

[Marty]

But fun version of that.

[Eric]

Fun version.

[Marty]

Mine was better. Yeah, but not instead of like typing it.

[Eric]

So we have five different hash holes from five different rollers, all the same strains in just five different ways. So they have their own stickers on it, they have their own techniques on how to do it. But there are five different people that roll for a living. That's like their full time job. And they're just like showcasing their whole little shebang.

[Marty]

It's badass.

[Eric]

It's super sick.

[Marty]

I never seen anybody do that before.

[Eric]

It's super sick. Pick a. Pick one.

[Marty]

Oh, let's smoke.

[Thomas]

It's a compilation.

[Marty]

Wow.

[Eric]

This guy has a compilation.

[Marty]

Has like a old man picture.

[Eric]

Like how they're different too. You see the glass tip differences? I like the wood tips a lot.

[Marty]

You know, tips are always super s, dude.

[Eric]

Which ones do you like better?

[Marty]

Wood tip.

[Eric]

Yeah, I think so too. Filter in it inside. Yeah, that's my favorite one too.

[Marty]

Red roots, rolling co from Denver. That's what he. That's his. That's what he does. Always. That's my favorite style.

[Eric]

Denver's got some of the gassiest.

[Marty]

What they put a. Oh, that's the part of the sticker I'm like. They engraved it. Yo, these are all cool. This is my least favorite tip.

[Eric]

Style.

[Marty]

I'll say this.

[Eric]

The rounded tip. I knew, I knew you're gonna pull out 100. I'm not the biggest.

[Marty]

I can't like get a huge hit. I love the rip tip. The rip tip's always really sick.

[Eric]

The Rift TV is fire.

[Marty]

Honestly, dude, I don't like these ceramic looking tips. But the picture's so funny. Ah, you know what?

[Eric]

There's so many options. Nice.

[Marty]

I'm gonna go the rabbit.

[Eric]

Nice.

[Marty]

It's called Eclipse.

[Eric]

Eclipse. Is that who the roller is?

[Marty]

This is really cool idea, man.

[Eric]

Yeah, it's dope. Shout out to all these rollers. Doink duty rolls. Hitman, the Roller loyalty squad. Atlanta Doinks. I've never been to Atlanta. You've been heard. It gets wild down there.

[Marty]

I heard.

[Eric]

I heard it's like San Francisco for like in the inner city.

[Marty]

What?

[Eric]

Just a lot of gay going on. That's what I've heard.

[Marty]

Oh, yeah. It's a hypersexual, they call it.

[Eric]

Yes, yes, that's the word. There's just. There's just a lot of Atlanta.

[Marty]

It's like it's a hypersexual spot. So it's like gay, very gay, very bisexual, very straight, very. Which is like always. But it's hypersexual where it's. Where it's like a concentrated.

[Eric]

They're just places. They're just getting after it. Yeah, yeah. It's kind of funny parties. And you'll see like the ads on the little polls. They're like, hey, come back.

[Marty]

Not Vegas, Atlanta.

[Eric]

Pull that up.

[Marty]

I heard that because one of my homies from Atlanta, it's a hypersexual place. What do you mean? And then he explained it to me. Atlanta. And then we had, we had a Pacman Jones. Yeah. It was like the strip clubs. We don't. We old Magic City. My awesome. Because it's a strip club capital.

[Eric]

Oh, Magic City.

[Marty]

It's the capital.

[Eric]

I heard the wings there are kind of good. I heard Magic City has a drive thru. People just get wings.

[Marty]

I heard everything about it. That's what he says. Like we go for the food. Remember he said that? He's like the food is incredible. I had a choke talking about who the eats had a strip club.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Thomas]

They're making like 250k a year.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

He's like, you think you're going to go in there and have sex with these girls? Like you need to go somewhere else. Atlanta's like, that's not the place. These girls are making hundreds of thousands, thousands of dollars a year. So they don't need your money.

[Eric]

Oh, whoa.

[Marty]

But actually they do. That's why they're here.

[Eric]

What are you saying? He's saying they're just making money from dancing or.

[Marty]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Wow.

[Marty]

It's like that dude I've seen, I've seen like little documentary piece on. I think it was Magic City and the people drop a hundred bands in there. A person will come in there with like a bunch of homies and drop a hundred K. Shit's nuts.

[Eric]

Shit's nuts.

[Marty]

I've seen, I've seen wild before. Before to where I'm like, yo, you sell bricks. That's impossible. What are you doing right now? I've seen people do wild but never like a Atlanta thing. I heard it's the. It's just really cool. But I've never been. Speaking of. There's a lot of gay in there. I like how you. That's where you were going. Like what do you mean the inner city. Like it's dirty. You get broken into a lot like. Oh no, just, just. That's cool. Let him do the thing.

[Eric]

People aren't getting the rural areas.

[Marty]

Everywhere there's a button up shirt. It starts to get a little more strange.

[Eric]

Little lumberjacks.

[Marty]

Oh, wait, Marty. We'll start with this one.

[Thomas]

Sir.

[Eric]

The joint pass.

[Marty]

Okay, back to what we were saying. What I was gonna ask about. You guys shut down your store.

[Eric]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

That. So Texas. It's still legal right now in Texas, though.

[Eric]

Yeah. They're doing this whole little. They're playing with the feds, the lawsuit thing. So every single. It seems seven to 10 days, they're doing a little. Oh, should I spark one up too?

[Marty]

Oh, you want to share?

[Eric]

I'm down for whatever.

[Marty]

I didn't know. I thought you. I thought you pulled one out. My bad.

[Eric]

Oh, no, we're all good. Yeah. So they closed the loophole, I guess is the easiest way to put it. Texas closed. You can still ship there. So pretty much they're saying you can't sell it, but you can have it. Which just doesn't make any sense. They just shut down a bunch of local businesses for no reason. Yeah, the store is done, but we're still online, we're still shipping there. It's just we physically had to shut down the store.

[Marty]

So wait, Texas. A big thing when I went out there was everybody's like, come to my dispensary. Like, there's no dispensaries.

[Eric]

No.

[Marty]

Yeah, those are all gone.

[Eric]

Yeah, they all.

[Marty]

There was a lot of them.

[Eric]

There was a ton of them. Maybe more per capita than like some places like Oklahoma, which has an insane amount. Amount. Whoa.

[Thomas]

Yeah.

[Eric]

It's nuts. They all just. I mean, big stores, they didn't all have to shut down. I think the only thing legal right now is edibles. So if they wanted to keep selling, like, edibles, you know. But for most stores, that's what, 20 of their profits maybe. So it's just like you can stretch yourself thin and do it, but a lot of the ones were just like. Especially the ones that could sell online. Like us. We're like, what's.

[Marty]

What's the point?

[Eric]

What's the point? Yeah, yeah, yeah. 100. So that we said a. She had to close it. Just had to close it. Unfortunate as hell.

[Marty]

There's so many stores, dude.

[Eric]

Exactly. They took away so many jobs and really money from the local economy, and it's crazy that you can still get it shipped in. Like, they're not shutting that down. They're not taking any packages. You can still get the weeds to you in Texas.

[Marty]

You're letting it ship it, but you're

[Eric]

not getting any of the tax money. It doesn't make. There's how, you know, the politicians don't know what they're doing. Yeah, 100. That's it.

[Marty]

One person got, like, $200 million.

[Eric]

They're like, all right, well, all right, we'll enact it. But, yeah, now we're just in this whole little game of suing the government and doing injunctions. So I think that whole news article that came out a couple weeks ago where it was like, it's back. They reversed the. They reversed the ban. That was, I think, for 14 days. And then when that ended, they just did another one. And I think they extended it to the end of this month, April 31st.

[Marty]

So, like, open store closure. Store open store closure.

[Eric]

And it's like, what's the point of that? Like, telling your employees, like, hey, we might have a job for you next week. It's like, maybe, you know, like, it just. There's almost no point in that. So we're just doing it online, and that's annoying.

[Thomas]

Scheduling have an impact on these businesses at all?

[Eric]

No, not at all. I think it's mainly rescheduling is all for medical stuff right now. So that whole little news article that came out, it's just applies to medical brands. Hopefully that changes for all brands. That would be awesome. But I think that would be the only maybe thing that might be able to change. Yeah. So just online. Pine park shop. That's it.

[Marty]

So November 12th, if it does go through, this is dead in the water all around.

[Eric]

Yeah. 100. We're gonna go back into dispensaries. We already have a couple things, like, lined up if that does happen. So we'll be in dispensaries in, like, California and a couple other states. So we'll keep going, but, like, you just gotta roll with the punches at this point. It feels like, you know, whack.

[Marty]

Damn. Yeah. I have no. I have no other.

[Thomas]

Oh, what's November 12th again?

[Marty]

THC will be illegal.

[Thomas]

THCA is going to be illegal November 12th.

[Eric]

Yeah. They're closing.

[Marty]

Loophole will close. Sell CBD, like, across the board.

[Eric]

I don't know. Across the board. Across the entire country. It's messed up, man.

[Thomas]

But they're gonna leave regular weed legal and.

[Marty]

Yeah.

[Eric]

And.

[Marty]

And rescheduled it. It's good news if you own a THCA company. That sucks. But we didn't get into we for thca. We got into it, so hopefully THC will be. Our companies have to die for that to happen. I approve.

[Thomas]

You know, it's just so goofy and stupid. It's the same.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Thomas]

So stupid.

[Eric]

Hey, I think. I think they finally understood that, though. They're like, yeah. They're like, we gotta close this.

[Marty]

You know what happened? We explained it too much one time. Oh.

[Eric]

For exactly what it is.

[Marty]

Oh. Now that you put it into words, I can understand, dude, the real problem.

[Eric]

The real problem in Texas is because the hemp loophole, you don't have to. To ID anybody. So, like, bro, stores in Texas were selling packs to like 10 year olds and it was like, obviously this is going to get shut down, guys. Like, yeah, no, 100%. Like, we ID and stuff. And people would come into the store and be like, whoa.

[Marty]

You guys actually Id always have to id.

[Eric]

People be like, you guys actually id. And we'd have, like big signs everywhere. Like, people would walk in and be like, oh. And they would just walk right out as soon as it said, like, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

Online you have a page verification, your ID and your number. Yes. Yeah, I. If you hooked them up with a fake id, I can't do anything about it.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

Still have the fake id. It's over for me online, I get how people, like. Because some people, like, you know, id, like, we do age verification. We can't do more than that. What about signing at the door? Like, do you want to pay the extra 350? You know how many people would not buy or not even click that option? We can't lose money because you feel weird about it. Like, there's a reason why your idea has to match your card.

[Eric]

Yeah, 100.

[Marty]

You still have to do that step. So if you get past that, you're a scammer. You're a little scammer, kid. We can't stop that. Yeah, just like anything. Oh, I bought this on Amazon using my mom's Amazon card. A kid shouldn't buy it. So what? Like Amazon should shut the down because your kid's a scammer. No, watch your credit card. It's weird, but in person. Yeah, you should have to ID. Yeah. Right into a business 100.

[Eric]

Especially if it's obvious like, like, yo,

[Marty]

yeah, you should have to ID for the. For the thca. That's crazy.

[Eric]

It was wild in Texas. They had the bad actors, got it shut down. We'll say, you know the bad apples that were just selling to kids. It's like, all right, I can see why it got shut down. Damn. A little bit of a shame you've

[Thomas]

been traveling earth, huh? You got a new series cracking.

[Eric]

Yeah, Damn me. I've been traveling a lot recently. My girl became a flight attendant. So we just.

[Marty]

Is that why.

[Eric]

Yeah, we just. We've just been getting around the world a little bit, you know.

[Marty]

I was like, turns out Eric's is super controlling. I want to see if you're really at work. I want to go to Paris with you.

[Thomas]

No, he's efficient. He's like, listen, I want to do some traveling. While we're traveling. We're going to. I mean, we're going to get you paid.

[Eric]

Might as well get it going.

[Marty]

Smart.

[Eric]

Yeah, no, it's. It's pretty awesome. It's pretty cool. It's one of the. The bigger airlines as well. So there's like a lot of hubs and like a lot of flights. Cuz when you fly, they call it non rev because, you know, the airline's not getting any revenue from me. You're just flying on it. So they put you at the bottom of like the little list. Like anyone buys a ticket is going to get a seat before you. But if you're on a. If you're on one of the bigger airlines, there's usually like plenty of seats. You know what I mean? Like, and you can see how many seats are left. So I'm not really stuck anywhere so much. It's been nuts. I've been what, a loophole for you? I've been taking at least like a flight or two a week.

[Marty]

My girlfriend's now a. A millionaire grower. Like the only other thing that I can think would be perfect for your ass. But she owns a boba tea spot too. What else? She just bought Sovereignty Class. Damn. That's the ultimate for you. Travel like crazy.

[Eric]

Yeah. Yeah. And it's been. It's gonna move because, like, if we travel together, I can just. All right, I'm not buying the flights. I can get like a nice hotel and get nice experiences, you know, we can go to slightly better restaurants, you know, in half, maybe 60. Yeah, yeah, that's been.

[Thomas]

So you did like the pyramids, right? Tokyo.

[Eric]

Yeah, I've been to Tokyo. I went to the Niagara Falls. Last week I went to Mexico City, which is when I got sick. Had to delay shooting this episode. Apologies, fellas. It's a little late if you're watching this, because I got.

[Marty]

It's all good.

[Eric]

A little sick. It's called. They're calling it Montezuma's Revenge.

[Marty]

Oh, that's what you got?

[Eric]

That's what I got. I was pissing from my ass. It's like the best Way to describe it because, like, after the first day or two, sick. I didn't really feel like nauseous or sick. Like I could just function normally. I was just like 10 times a day, probably. It was insane. I'd just be like, wow, I'm having a great day. Feels weird. Like, oh, like, I know it's about to happen. And it was just not a single solid piece for BRO.

[Marty]

It was felt. It was nothing.

[Eric]

I read about it online because I didn't even get it when I was there. Some one of my homies got it when we were there. And I was like, damn. I was like, bro, you shouldn't have fucking, like, drinking the tap water. You shouldn't have done this. I thought it was safe.

[Marty]

It was your shower. You probably got.

[Eric]

It was probably the shower 100. Because I didn't even like, brush my teeth with the tap water. But I'm pretty sure it was the shower 100. So I got home and I was like, oh, I'm fine. Woke up the day after I got back and was like, what in the is going on with me? Looked up the symptoms and they're like, yeah, it usually lasts like four to 10 days. And I was like, no know. And I was like. I was like, how is 4 the smallest number here? You know? I was like, there's no way I'm not good tomorrow. I think I just got better yesterday.

[Marty]

Oh, my God.

[Eric]

I think it was eight days. It was eight days of just the worst. Like, it's like a waterfall. It was like Niagara Falls, like, coming out. It was. I've never had anything like it. Never had anything like it. It's unbelievable.

[Marty]

Awesome. Traveling too much. Having too much fun. Something has to happen. Dude. Dude.

[Eric]

That's what I'm thinking. Yeah. Too safe in too many places.

[Marty]

Stay home for a minute. I believe it. I think the earth does that to

[Eric]

you because sets you right.

[Marty]

Yes, because I'll be doing so much. But this is save at all, to

[Eric]

be honest with you. I feel like you ever think about that? You ever get too stoned and you're like, we're probably. I don't think we're supposed to see as much as we do. Like, you know, like, if we were born a thousand years ago, you'd probably see like 40 faces max. And you'd stay in one little town and then that's kind of it.

[Marty]

And then your brain would never get bigger.

[Eric]

And that's good. Yeah, that's kind of it.

[Marty]

But like, do we ash and flying around the earth.

[Eric]

Yeah. Or like, imagine things like, there's a big, like, pyramid somewhere in the world. Or there's these big buildings. There's different people out there. And you're like, yeah, shut up. Like, what are you talking about, Wire? Yeah, what are you talking about?

[Marty]

What are you talking about, man? We're white. What are you talking about?

[Eric]

Now you can, like, scroll your timeline and see, like, 10 of the fattest asses you've ever seen. Like, that's not supposed to happen. Like, that's not. There's something biologically that's happening, happening to your brain. You know, you would just. You would marry, like, the prettiest little humble lady in your village, and you'd call it a day. You know, you'd be like, I'll have some kids now. It's like, what's going on?

[Marty]

What's a Colombian?

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, what's going on? I don't know.

[Marty]

It's kind of meal prepping. Seems pretty sick. Oh, yeah. Everything in the world so much make you go, well, I don't. I can't do that. Yeah, yeah, that seems cool.

[Eric]

So I think when I look out the plane windows, like, I'm gonna look out every time. Like, I'm one of the only humans to see this. In terms of, like, human history. Who's seen, like, cloud from the top?

[Marty]

An 80 year window of just. We're the only ones that's ever seen this, guys.

[Eric]

Yeah. Like, the top of the cloud. No, no human's ever seen that besides, like a few years ago. Really?

[Marty]

Yeah. I don't look out the windows. I just want to land.

[Eric]

Say, damn. No way.

[Marty]

Yeah, I'm just trying to space out watching. I hate traveling, dude. I hate the experience of going, don't up up there, dude. Like, all right, come on, come on. That is, if there's bumps, I'm gonna stare at the back of that door until you open it and say, we're okay.

[Eric]

What made me feel better is I realized that all the planes pretty much fly themselves. Like, the pilots don't really. Their pilots are only there if something goes wrong. But it's really just the. It's like a robot the whole time taking you. And I'm like, ah, it.

[Marty]

Yeah, we're talking about, hey, I up sometimes.

[Eric]

It does, it does.

[Marty]

I want people there. I want a pilot going, I want my pot to come out in good shape going, I got to do after this. Don't worry. That's what I want. I want my pilot. I don't want a. A depressed or a guy that looks like, he has nothing going on in his life to fly the plane, dude. I always judge the pilot every time.

[Eric]

Yeah, now you have to.

[Marty]

Yep. Every time. Every time I see a chick and she's like that, hey, what's up, guys? Like, oh, let's go. She's got something to prove.

[Eric]

She's been playing with little toy planes her whole life. Yeah, she's like three.

[Marty]

Like, her hair's always super tight and forearm arms are buff. Every time. Like, that's the kind of.

[Eric]

That I want her flying the plane.

[Marty]

Flying the plane.

[Eric]

100.

[Marty]

Because, like, it's men and women, children first. She's gonna be like, I'll stay with the man. That's the I want flying the plane, dude.

[Eric]

That's real.

[Thomas]

Have you encountered any sketchy in your travels?

[Eric]

Sketchy, I imagine. Yeah. I try to stay pretty. I try to do a good amount. I try to do a good amount of research before and stay in, like, the nicer areas and stuff, you know,

[Marty]

at the very least, never research any of that. That sounds smart.

[Eric]

Oh, no, I definitely, like, where should not walk at night, you know, like, what's going on there? I feel like that's pretty important.

[Marty]

If I was a thief, I would be out there changing it. But you should definitely walk. Bring all the money you have.

[Eric]

I think the craziest place I went, it wasn't even craziest. It was like an accidental thing. There was like this super popping street in Mexico City, and it was. It wasn't this past time that I went. I went like in January, and I went with my girl that time. So it was like this super, like, crazy party street. There's a bunch of bars, a bunch of clubs and stuff. Stuff. And we're kind of just like wandering in each one, you know, like, it's like a super brother. There's like hundreds, maybe thousands of people on the street. Like, so we walk into this one club and I've never been patted down like this in my entire life. It was insane. They took. They. They took my pins for sure. And I was like, well, I get these back later. And they're like, yeah. And I was like, I'm not getting them back later. I didn't get them back later. But they stripped down everything. They made me take out my shoes. It was for a club. They went through my wallet and looked at every single card and took out every single individual thing in my wallet. They were like, they got the girl. They're like. Because I had a girl, and they're like, the girl security guard Watch her. And they said she was, like, violated. She said she was like. She didn't even want to go in anymore because they were, like, touching, like, credit. Like, the girl was, like, getting, like, all the crevices and touching her in the craziest ways. And then we go in there. You're bringing in, I don't know, probably.

[Marty]

I don't know, maybe you're on drugs.

[Eric]

Yeah, maybe. Maybe like cocaine or something like that. Maybe they thought I had a little.

[Marty]

Let you bring in your own shit there.

[Eric]

Right, right, right. And I walk into this place, and then we quickly realize that this is like a bar club kind of thing. But it's very obviously like a whorehouse. Like, very obviously. Like, we should probably get out of here. There's, like, some, like, sketchy guys, like, big guys in the corner, like, watching everyone to make sure, like, everything's good. And we're like, we probably shouldn't be here. Like, this is crazy. And it wasn't even popping yet. It was probably like 8pm so it was like there was like, five or six people in there, and we're, like,

[Marty]

stared at.

[Eric]

Yeah, no, 100%. And they have an individual person staring at me the whole time. I was like, yeah, this isn't the move. That was maybe like the. The one play, the one time recently that I can think of where I was like, all right, let's get. Let's get out of this immediate vicinity. Like, I don't even want to be here.

[Thomas]

Chat. GBT didn't mention that type of.

[Eric]

Yeah, told me about the street. I was like, where should I go drink right now? They're like, this place is popping. Come here.

[Marty]

One of these. These guys, just a little hacker on their team, tell people to go down the street, start robbing tourists. That would be the smartest thing I could do. See, that's. You're lucky I'm a nice guy. I would be doing. Hey, guys, you know what you should do? You should up a Wikipedia and be like, this is the best, safest city ever. Bring crypto. Bring your stuff and your little card for your crypto. Dude, could you imagine if. If you just said you searched the area? I'd be hacking the. Sorry, that's all I can look at. This movie prep is starting.

[Eric]

My girl has been getting a lot of. Because she became a flight attendant. So she gets all, like, these flight attendant news stories on her feed. And. And she said the other month, because when you go fly to other countries, they usually put you in a hotel there, and they, like, stay you the night there. And she said there was someone who went to Colombia overnight in like Medellin, had like went out with their co working group of homies and then went missing. Never be found again. Game on a layover of their flight. Like, what the.

[Marty]

I just wouldn't be going out.

[Eric]

Yeah, like in certain places I don't think you're just supposed to.

[Marty]

My family's from South America, dude.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

But I am not trying to party out there, man.

[Eric]

If you like stick out a little bit, I feel like, yeah, it's probably not.

[Marty]

You know how you stick out? When they say Spanish you go what? And then they go, let's get this guy. That's my biggest fear, dude, is like, like what if they're saying some wild. I don't know what's happening. When I went to Mexico with my grandma. I've gone to Mexico many times, right? My family. I went to Tijuana with my grandma when I was like 22 and this is all selling weed. I just got Rosie. I know Mexico's pretty wild, but I'm like, with my grandma, but I know they know where to go there. We're in Tijuana and we're walking down the street. First thing I see is a guy with a machine gun. I'm like,

[Eric]

yeah, right. Like is he keeping me safe or is this.

[Marty]

Yes, you know? Yeah, military guy. But still I'm like, do I have weed on me? Oh, should I have brought that? And I'm thinking like, okay, what's going on? What's going on? Right?

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

We go to the currency exchange and it's got hella bullet hole. Oh my bulletproof glass, the splatters because.

[Eric]

Oh, at least you know, it was proof.

[Marty]

But like on the inside it is like I'm out here, right? And we're about to cross the street. We're going to get food. We're about to cross the street and there's this gang banging Mexican fool. Like hairline, but it's all tattoos, like the hairline tattoo. And he's bald. He like looks like he's from la. He looks like he's dressed like American.

[Eric]

I know exactly what you mean. I know exactly what you mean.

[Marty]

He was like 45 and he's talking to some regular dressed Mexican. But you could tell that fool's with some too. He's got all golds on. I'm like, he's got like a button up. So I'm like ah, leader or something. And I'm waiting for the, the, the crossing the light with My grandma.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

My sister. And I hear them talking and I'm pretending like I don't. I've never heard words. I'm just looking straight and I hear the dude with the head tags like, come on, dog. Like, why they even accuse me? That's disrespectful. Like, I would never do some like that. That's all I hear. I'm like, the other guy speaks Spanish. Like, come on. Burning people. Like, I don't burn. I don't do like that. If I'm gonna do. If I'm gonna take them out, you know how I'm gonna take them out? Like, that's disrespectful. I would never do some sloppy. Like that. And I just cross the street. Street. Like, damn. He's talking about he's disrespected because he kills people better than that. Get the out of here, man. I'll just do my dentist in America, dude. I'll just pay for it. I don't want to come back here. And I haven't been back since.

[Eric]

That was the last straw.

[Marty]

The last time. I was like, Dan, I stayed up all night watching the same channel boxing match. Just. I watched the whole thing. I was sick. That's why we were there. I was sweating my ass off sitting there. I fucking hated it. That's not my. I've gone back to Mexico, but to resorts.

[Eric]

Yeah. You ever heard of Hong Kong down there?

[Marty]

It's really that like a strip club?

[Eric]

Is that. Is that. Yeah, I think it's both. It's definitely both.

[Marty]

There's a ongoing joke with these older Mexican communities. Like, man, I went to Hong Kong. Like, how was. He goes, oh, Tijuana is weird. Ah, man, I thought you were traveling.

[Eric]

You got me, dude. The craziest part about that place is I found out that if you go to like the San Diego border, if you go down there and you just walk across, there's a bus that takes you straight to the strip club club and back.

[Marty]

So there's a strip club called Hong Kong in Mexico. Tijuana is famous. It's a big ass, like Walmart style built, not that big. Talk about certain strip clubs in Mexico, but it's a strip club. But apparently it's a strip club. Only here's the equivalent of those guys that stand outside of weed shops like on Venice. Hey, what's up, man? Greenery. Greenery. Come on in. Come on. Except it's a whorehouse house, but it's like stripping. Stripping. Come in. Get your card. Yeah, we sell Weed. It's almost like a cover. Like those guys in Vegas. Were you there when they used to do the cards? They just put smack the cards. It was like hooker car. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't want that. They would just go, hey, hey. And they smack the cards. That's when you know. And it gives you an escort car. My dog.

[Eric]

The ones that vote. The ones that are on the like the trucks and they just drive. Sometimes I think they're in there. I'm like, what if you just pop out right now?

[Marty]

It is a double decker bus. What if one level is just a strip club? That's not a terrible idea. Pick up drunk dudes on the strip. Strip club. Moving strip club. Get in. You got money swiping your car.

[Eric]

Strip club.

[Marty]

Did we just.

[Eric]

That's fire.

[Marty]

Pull some.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

That's not a bad idea.

[Eric]

Someone's gonna do it before we will

[Marty]

get a ring or a camera shot of them getting actual accident one day.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And seeing fly to one side of the bus.

[Eric]

It's the best ad ever. Our shit's off the roof over there. For people ringing like, bro, I need to get on this. I need to get on this.

[Marty]

It's not a bad idea though. Like parking lots. Like all these drunk dudes. Like strip club.

[Eric]

I bet you there's plenty of people that want. Yeah, there's plenty of people that want to go to the strip club for like.

[Marty]

But they don't want to go. Yeah.

[Eric]

10, 20 minutes and they don't want to go 100.

[Marty]

Yeah. Came to me like, that's not a terrible idea club too. At all. I mean, look at food trucks.

[Eric]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Marty]

It's worked out pretty well. I think I just started someone's business out here. Please thank me. Please thank me by giving me money. Yo, here's 5%. You're $7 million. 5%. That would make so much money.

[Eric]

That'd be dummy.

[Marty]

It would be super sick.

[Eric]

Actually, I would test it out a couple times to make sure, you know, I'd be the beta tester. Like let's make.

[Marty]

Don't worry, man. All dudes.

[Eric]

Oh yeah. We would have to have both the girls might like it more.

[Marty]

That's like we would have to have your party on wheels. A bachelorette party.

[Eric]

Exactly. Those get nuts.

[Marty]

Could you imagine people calming down and going, corporate party. There's an in and out truck and a strip club bus by. What the. That's not a bad idea because you

[Eric]

can keep it apart and it's tinted.

[Marty]

This is not a horrible idea.

[Eric]

What's going on?

[Marty]

I had a real question.

[Thomas]

You got to own a bunch of them. So you send the stripper bus, then you send the food truck. Oh, then you got, like, a coffee one. And then you got like a week,

[Marty]

then you got a coffee one. But all in that order. So, like, by the time you drive home, here's the coffee. Starts off with liquor. Now, then it goes to a strip club.

[Eric]

People have damn near combined them. Have you seen those freaky coffee shops where you buy. Yeah. And they're just.

[Marty]

And it went out of business somehow.

[Eric]

What?

[Marty]

Don't know how.

[Eric]

They were hiring some mead

[Marty]

dude that burnt himself. That guy that was being creepy, he

[Eric]

did it immediately after, bro.

[Marty]

Immediately.

[Eric]

He drove to a parking lot in Blueish.

[Marty]

Do you know what this is?

[Thomas]

The drive through video.

[Marty]

Yeah. So I went and did a show in Tempe. And the number one thing, they're like, it's coming. It's coming.

[Thomas]

Remember? Right.

[Marty]

Like, it's about to be here. It's coming. And we're going to our hotel. He goes, look, it's the Gouder Coffee Shop. Oh, my God, it is the guy that's sad.

[Eric]

Damn. That's the one.

[Marty]

Killed himself in this heat.

[Eric]

Oh, it is hot.

[Marty]

Could you imagine killing yourself and being really hot? That I want to go out. At least, like, stoked about it.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Feeling in a good way, mad about the situation.

[Eric]

At least an od, you know?

[Marty]

Oh, could you imagine od? They come into your senses going, ah, I think I should stop this. Just not making it to the door. Oh, I can't imagine. Dude.

[Eric]

It's probably print. Dude, how did that go out of business. There's no way.

[Marty]

Honestly, dude, the coffee's bad.

[Eric]

Does anyone go over there?

[Marty]

Could you imagine? The coffee's terrible. That's their thing. Like, the coffee's. Have you been to Universal Studios here?

[Eric]

Yeah. Yes.

[Marty]

Have you been to Krusty Burger?

[Eric]

Yes.

[Marty]

This sucks.

[Eric]

Yeah. It's not. Yeah, it's theme park food.

[Marty]

But it's supposed. Because Krusty Burger always sucks.

[Eric]

Oh.

[Marty]

So when I ate, I go, this sucks. They go, it's supposed to go, what a smart idea. Like, the food sucks. It's crusty Burger.

[Thomas]

That's like guar saying everything that he likes is what he hates.

[Marty]

Yes. It's like, yeah, yeah. It's supposed to suck. You like it. You're. You're weird. But you got your money's worth. No matter what, I'm gonna take your money is what Krusty Burger is doing.

[Eric]

I respect that a lot. It's right in your face.

[Marty]

It's. Thank you. It's a good idea. The first time I ate, I was so sad. And then wait. Oh, yeah. That's like eating the chum bucket in spongebob Land. It's like, dog, it's supposed to suck.

[Eric]

That Nintendo World is sick. Feels like I'm on acid.

[Marty]

It was cool, but the gate, I thought there was gonna be more interactive.

[Eric]

Yeah, you kind of just walk around, right?

[Marty]

It's like the whole point is like, I like it. And then seeing the face, fake wall to this real.

[Eric]

The fake sky. Or like, yeah, it's a real sky. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

Especially if it's overcast. Looking at a fake, it makes you feel like you're in, like, the back room or some. Or some weird fake. I don't know. I don't know what this is like Truman Show. It feels like the Truman Show. Like everything's fake.

[Eric]

It's crazy how the back rooms is just such, like, a university. Like, you just know it's creepy. Like, it's not supposed. Like, you know, you don't know why. You know. But if you just showed it to a human, they'd be like, what the. Like, I would. I don't want to be there.

[Marty]

I'm like, I think eight years older than you. Or nine years older than you. I believe so. Maybe you don't remember this, but I brought this up years ago. I have brought this up recently. And then I saw a thing on Tik Tok Go. This is a thing.

[Eric]

It's a movie. It's going to be a movie.

[Marty]

So not back rooms. Oh, Marty, maybe you did, too, when I was a kid. Do you remember portables being brought to your school? Do you ever remember the portables and they do testing?

[Eric]

Like the. Yeah, like the portable classrooms.

[Marty]

Yeah. Remember that?

[Eric]

Right?

[Marty]

Do you remember that?

[Thomas]

No, we didn't have that.

[Marty]

Okay. Do you remember taking tests with people that would come outside of school? Do you remember that? No.

[Eric]

What do you mean, come outside of school?

[Marty]

They would come from outside of the school. They weren't teachers. They would come in and test you. Do you remember this?

[Eric]

I remember. I think our teachers would give us a test, but they would be, like administrators walking around and, like, watching and.

[Marty]

No, like, they would give you tests, but not, like, school tests. Tests. Oh, do you remember that or no?

[Eric]

How are you getting tested if then it didn't happen?

[Marty]

Well, Marty, you're. You're a little older than me, but it was in the early 90s they started, so it might hit you too. Did you get tested for stuff? Like flash?

[Eric]

Tested for lice.

[Marty]

Flash.

[Eric]

They did this thing where they tested everyone.

[Marty]

They always tested us and every kid, like, your mom needs to talk to you at the front.

[Eric]

And we would laugh at him like,

[Marty]

you know, your mom's a hoe. She ain't picking you up at school. It's crazy. We all know your mom, but. Yeah, you have lice for sure. I'm going to write that down. It's a good bit. I like that. But for real, you don't. Do you ever get tested? You remember the flash cards and the numbers and all that stuff? The shapes?

[Thomas]

Not a thing.

[Marty]

Wow. So I remember this my whole life. I brought it up every year. No, it only happened to me once, but it happened over the course of a couple weeks.

[Eric]

Weeks.

[Marty]

I was in the GATE program. Were you in that?

[Eric]

Oh, we had the same. It was a. We called it the GT program.

[Marty]

Okay. So over here it's G A T E. Gifted, Talented Education.

[Eric]

What it's called ours is just gifted and talented.

[Marty]

Gc Same, right?

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

So I remember this. And I brought this up like maybe eight years ago. And then I brought it to Rosie and Rosie was in the same class.

[Eric]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Marty]

So this is what. This is what I remember. The people would. The. The lady and the guy would come in. They get the whole classroom and go to the portables. We go to the portables and they test this individually. There's like little partitions, like 10 partitions. They would take 10 kids at a time. And then some kids would leave and some kids would stay. Some kids would leave, some kids would stay. That's what I remember. I only remember going back twice, but I remember they were ask us. It was hearing and they would ask us flashcards, numbers. Do these numbers fast. What shapes is this? What do you see? The Rorschach test. Yeah. I was like, all right, that's cool, whatever. But then we came back the next day and it was only me and like two other kids. And I remember after every time we'd leave, they'd make us drink this little drink. What? So do you remember this?

[Eric]

No. I did. I did all that except for the drink. They did not make a little drink. Anything sludge.

[Marty]

Like. Like a. Like apricot scrub consistency. Yeah. It was like a little drink in a. In a shot glass. Like a little see through cut cup. And then we drink it. We have to drink it and we drink a little water after we walk out. I was like, all right, that tasted crazy. I remember it all Right. And I didn't think about this for a long time because I just thought, what is it? But I remember I came back and I told my mom the test, and she didn't think nothing of it. So I'm like, all right, cool. The second time I came back, same people, same portable, right? But then they were asking us pictures of what's the number coming up? And I'm like, yeah, what do you mean? And it would be. No, they would. The car would be facing away from me. I couldn't see the number. It's like, what's the number? Next I go, weirdly, it's seven. Why do I know that the next number is seven? And then she's like, good. And she turned it over. Then she'd do colors and she do shapes. She's like six to 10 different cards. And then she would ask, what numbers next? What words next? And I don't remember getting them all, right? But I remember I got a couple. Like, hey, how the fuck did I know blue was next? Because I remember thinking, like, I'm a superhero, dude. Something's going on. And then we drank the drink, and then I left. And that's all I ever remember, right? That's all I ever remember about it.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Then I look it up, and it says that CIA was doing psychic testing in the early 90s to 2000s on classrooms. And they say every single thing I just said. And then they said the alleged pink drink. I'm not tripping is what I'm saying. I remember I've said this.

[Thomas]

We know what the. The drink was.

[Marty]

No, but I remember the taste. And Rosie said she remembers drinking the pink drink too. Wow.

[Eric]

I wonder what the pink drink was. You drank it twice?

[Marty]

Yeah.

[Eric]

I wonder if they're like, I wonder if it worked well and it didn't work, so they gave you it again, and then it worked the second time.

[Marty]

I don't know. But I do know this. I do have dreams, and they do come true. And I have had two times where I saved my life. And we know this, and we talk about this, and I do. We know this, but I'll call all the time. Like, no, that's gonna happen because of this and that and this. Let's not do this. I have a weird thing, right? We know this. We talk about it.

[Eric]

You ever have dreams about. And then it happens in real life later. Holy. That's the crazy that happened to me

[Marty]

at the Rainbow Room. Damn rainbow. We told the story before where I had a dream, like, four times. I have recurred dreams. My whole life. My whole life I had recurrent dreams. But it sucks, it's boring, it's annoying. That's why I say I have dreams the second I fall asleep. But I'll go back to the same building. And that's when I know, let's stay the away from that. Because everybody dies in that building. Let's just not go over there. But I was at the Rainbow Room. I used to have a dream. I didn't know it was a Rainbow Room at the time. You know, in la, here, Hollywood. I used to have this dream where I see this tall guy with a beard. He's wearing some type of brown. He's a brown hair, he's with two people and there's like a security guard talking to him. And above him is this yellowish light. And I can see the wood of the wall that the lights on because of the light. And I remember looking at him and then seeing people go. Him go in. And then I hear people screaming. And everybody starts rushing out of the restaurant, like rushing like somebody's killing somebody. Like people are screaming, tables, all this. And I remember watching it go by and like people were walking through. Like I'm like, not there. In my dreams, I'm like, what the is this? And I see people running into a street. This has happened. I was like 15, 19, 20 something. And then I was at the Rainbow Room with a bunch of fools like that follow me. Yeah, I went met my friend and he brought his friends and he didn't tell me he was meeting me. So I get there like, what the. Like, oh, what's up? Like we follow my. Oh, six. I'm like, like, cool. So I'm talking, all these folks are smoking rainbow. We can smoke. So I'm like, all these fools follow me. That's cool, man, that's tight. So in my head, I'm just chilling in their head like, oh, I like this guy. And we're having dinner. That's cool, man. I didn't even know we're gonna hang out and smoke weed with him. So for me to look like a insane person, they must be like, damn, this one was weird in person. So that's why the whole time the story like, oh man, they think I'm weird. I see the guy walking to the

[Eric]

Rainbow Room, like the guy in your dreams.

[Marty]

That's the guy. And I look at Rosie go, we need to leave. Oh, and we only there for 30 minutes. Yeah, that was with a Betty, my homie, Home run, Hash Betty. And he has all his Friends in New York. And I'm like, hey, I'm gonna go. He goes, what?

[Eric]

What?

[Marty]

Oh, something's gonna happen, dude. Like Final Destination, we saw. Freaking out. I'm trying to keep it calm so people are like, yeah, this feels weird. But I'm like, hey, man, we gotta get the out of here. We have to go. Like, I've had a dream about this. This exact situation. I was talking to him.

[Eric]

Oh, oh, you were talking about the dream.

[Marty]

I told my. I've had this dream. I know this dream. Something bad is about to happen. I need to get the out of here. You should come with me. And he goes, we just sat down. Like, I know we just got here, but you should just trust me. And we talked about this. Benny Wolf vouchs for it. Rose and I told Rosie, like, get the check, pay for what? We go, let's get the. She's like, I have to go to the bathroom. Go to the bathroom right now. And Shannon would taking forever to give us the check. Taking for ever. And I didn't have a lot of money, so I'm like, I need my, like, change out of this. $24. I'll tip you 10 bucks. I need my. I need. I need to go. But also, like, I'm just gonna leave them. I got to the point, like, I'm gonna leave the money. It. I left it. And I'm waiting for Rosie. And right when Rosie goes into the bathroom, Mongols, the biker gang, like, seven of them, walk up to the security. You know, the security right outside. We show your id.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

If you can see them from where you're sitting in the restroom, they walk up and you see the security guard, like. Like this. He's just talking like this. And then the manager comes up like that with the clipboard, like, guy. And you can see him like, like,

[Eric]

calm down, calm down.

[Marty]

And then this big ass white fool walks through. Obviously, the leader walks in and brings two of them. He's like. And he just kind of pushes the security to the side. The security does this. And he looks down like, oh, my God, we need to get the out. And that's when I look at Benny go, do you see what I'm saying? Because at this point, everybody's like, you're leaving. I'm like, like, I've had a weird dream about that. And I said it like, I'm just letting you guys know I know I look like a weirdo, but I promise you, I'm not wrong. And then what? A minute and a half later, they'll Walk up and go. Do you see what I'm saying? And then they go. They always come here and go. I know, but do you see what I'm saying? They walk in right where the guy walked in through the back restaurant, not outside. They go in the restaurant, right? You've been there before.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And then two of the smallest little Mexican and white dudes with their cuts on, maybe like 5, 1, 5, 2. And they come in, they turn two chairs around and they sit at the exit. So they're. They're both sitting in front at the exit. But like little ass fools. But they looked.

[Eric]

They look not something to. With.

[Thomas]

No.

[Marty]

And I'm like, the big guys went in. They watching the door. Those guys. Guys are. They have the guns. Those are the scary. And they both just sat. Didn't look at nobody, just sat. Like this one. One of the white guy had his hands on his knees. I'm like, this is murderous. Let's get the out of here. But I remember I'm looking at Benny like, benny, we should go. He goes, that is kind of weird. Like, Benny, dude, we get out, get our stuff. Rosie comes out and she's like, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go. Because she says they're. And then she talk like, tell me later, tell me later. We go and get our car. You know how they pull the cars right up? You can bounce right there, there. I get in the car and I look at Benny. I'm like, I'm out. I take off and I'm like, what happened? She goes, I go to the bathroom and I hear the gang maker guy or the. The guys yelling, where the is he? And they're looking for the guy with the beer that I talked about.

[Eric]

Oh.

[Marty]

And Rosie's like, I saw him underneath the booth and I just ran out. I was like, oh, all right. I'm right. So we left. Whole building got evacuated because they tried to start stabbing this dude. Everybody. Benny called me 15 minutes later, here, dog. I'm. Well, I'm running out of. Like, I look at. Not even home. Like, do you see what I'm saying? So it turns out the guy is a Hell's Angels drop. It was in the. Everybody told him what happened. He's a dropout of the Hell's Angels, which is another gang or whatever.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

And he was trying to like, be cool, be civilian, like. And they saw that, like, yo, this showed up. Get him right now. So they post up. Like, that's why he was yelling at the Front, like, we know he's inside. We just saw him go inside. And then Rosie said, like they were yelling, where the is he? And she said he saw this guy under a table, under a booth, hiding under a booth. And he was big dude. So I guess they got in a fight, they up part of the bar and everybody rushed out because all those gaming, all those fools rushed into the bar. So they're like, oh, we're gonna get shot up. Let's get the out.

[Eric]

But he said people were getting over

[Marty]

each other, over each other to get out, you know, there's what, two exits?

[Eric]

Yes, right there.

[Marty]

Little one.

[Eric]

The that. It's like a nightmare place to have something.

[Thomas]

Here, I got something for you.

[Eric]

That's nuts.

[Thomas]

The description of elementary school students consuming pink chalky liquid, often identified as a fluoride rinse or swish while listening, designed to induce lucid dreaming or hemisync brain states originates from DA da. Often the gifted and educated gay programs. So there you go.

[Eric]

Damn. The government put lucid dreaming into you. Guess I can't Lucy dream that often.

[Marty]

Gen V bought.

[Eric]

Dude, I didn't get the.

[Marty]

I got the V. Dude, I thought

[Eric]

you got MK Ultra for a second.

[Marty]

Oh, watch it, dude. Oh, that'd be sick. I told you, I'm not a weirdo. I'm not a liar. And when I say I remember shakes, because I saw saw it. And the thing is, I've been talking about that for a long time. And then they started doing a tick tock last year. Does anybody remember the pink trick? And I stop go the. Did you just say. Because I didn't remember it for a long time. It would just come and go. But I told you, I used to be able to control my dreams until I met Rosie. And then it stopped.

[Eric]

Whoa.

[Marty]

The week I started dating Rosie, I couldn't do lucid dreams no more. It's not what. Yeah.

[Eric]

Whoa.

[Marty]

Weird, huh? We've talked about that before.

[Eric]

That's the craziest part. Can she. Did she also stop dreaming when she met you?

[Marty]

No, she never could. I could control my dreams. No. I would only go to sleep and I would. The second I get into it, I would do whatever I want. Dude.

[Eric]

Wow.

[Marty]

I used to fly around the city. All I would do is just fly.

[Eric]

I've only done that a few times. But you could just do it all. You were doing it all the time. But not anymore.

[Marty]

But I couldn't do anything bad. I couldn't do anything like it. I couldn't do that. Oh. And I couldn't hurt people. I could like push them.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

But I could never solidly hit them. Like it'd be like this, this constantly. It would like hit a softness.

[Thomas]

Punching through water.

[Marty]

Punching through water. I. I punch normal speed sometimes, but it would just like not land. It would just hit, go like that and nothing would ever happen. But I was always like doing fun. Dude, isn't that up? The week I met Rosie, I couldn't do the dreams no more. And my whole life, you know, I insomnia, so I could never sleep. But when I did, I do some sick. You ever seen yourself die in a dream dream?

[Eric]

No, thankfully. Oh well, I always just like wake up. Like, you know, like I've, I've, I've like crashed cars or like falling off buildings in my dreams, but I don't like, as soon as it happens, I like wake up.

[Thomas]

I've been like, oh, they got me.

[Eric]

Oh yeah, yeah, there you go. Like another life down.

[Marty]

Do you see it happen to you though?

[Thomas]

No, no, it's always like pov.

[Eric]

Yeah, it is always pov.

[Marty]

Oh really? Well, no pov, but when you died, you see outside of it, it.

[Thomas]

Nah, it's just like cuts to black and it's like really?

[Marty]

Every time I die, I pop out of my body, I look at it. Oh, and I get real pissed because I'm like, oh yeah, yeah.

[Eric]

I have had that feeling before. Actually, I think it was one. Only one time. Cuz I have like, I remember that feeling that you're talking about. You're like, you're like, damn. You're like, yeah.

[Marty]

I'm looking at my body like, like that's what I look like.

[Eric]

No way.

[Marty]

And I always go, come on. Every time. Dude. Have you ever talked to anybody after you die in a dream?

[Eric]

No.

[Marty]

I popped out and started talking to other dead. They're like, when did you die? I'm like, dude, right here.

[Eric]

Dude, wait, no. I had maybe the most insane dream I've ever had. Ever. Like, it was like a year ago. It was before I started flying a lot too, which is almost crazy. The same was almost same. It was like just as I started to fly a lot. So it makes sense as to why it was happening. But it was a dream where basically the premise of it was like I was. I spawned in like an airport, like gate area. Like everyone's waiting to board the flight. I get on the flight and then it's like a super small flight. The guy comes on the little, the airport intercom. The pilot's like, hey, we're just Gonna have to do a little like an unusual takeoff, but no one be worried about it.

[Marty]

It.

[Eric]

So we go up and it's almost like a video game. I look out the window and we're like flying through the buildings like in the city. And I'm like, what the is going on? Like this isn't right. Like no one else is screaming. No one else is tweaking out, bro. The plane crashes like into a building. And then I respawn in that same little like waiting room. It's the same gate, same people. And I ask and I'm like, did you guys just have that too? And they're like, yeah. Like, yeah, it just crashed into the building. And then I was like, like

[Marty]

I

[Eric]

was like, what the N, dude, I have a few that like probably a year ago, like a few months ago. That's probably the craziest dream I've ever had, I think. Cuz I remember like respawning and it was the same people and I was

[Marty]

talking to him like Final Destination.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Final Destination. Then it was crazy. No, just like a random. It was like a generic. Like if you asked AI build it AI airport lounge. That's what it looked like. It was just like a couple buildings

[Marty]

you were going through. Did it look familiar?

[Eric]

No, no, it didn't. Just the most generic buildings in plane. I don't remember like the plain brand name or anything. It was just like. It was like a. Just a generic. I don't remember a single specific thing.

[Marty]

That sucks, dude. Yeah, I really wish you keep thinking though. I always try to look at that so I can remember not to do it.

[Eric]

Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah.

[Marty]

I feel like dreams, honestly, because we don't dream. I mean, does this sound reasonable? Our brain's a computer, right?

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

When brain. When computers go into rest mode, where does the power go? It shuts off. But it's somewhere, right? Like all the information somewhere. So if our brains shut off and our bodies are resting, which is like the computer hardware, where's the brain go? Which is all our memories, right? They talk about like, oh, you go to another dimension. You go to this. You go to this.

[Eric]

Right, right, right.

[Marty]

Sometimes I feel like we're in a way waiting room and we pop up and go. These are all the possibilities that could have happened. Yeah, here's what could have happened. Keep going to the you're doing because you're gonna don't it up. Because I feel like I've had so many dreams where I'm like, hey, I should remember that. That Felt real.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And then I avoid it in real life.

[Eric]

Right, right, right.

[Marty]

You know, 100, almost awesome final destination. Because what did you think? Do you. Do you believe that, like, oh, my brain went up somewhere else. Now I'm in another dimension talking to something else. Do you believe in multiple realities like that?

[Eric]

I think I do.

[Marty]

I think I do too.

[Eric]

I think I do. I just. Oh. I don't know if that coincides with the simulation theory, but I'm starting to believe in that more and more. For sure. This is a big simulation. What really got me into. Because I've always heard about it. And you're like, all right, like, sure. Like, who's simulating it, whatever. But recently, with the whole, like, the AI agent thing, like, Marty mentioned it earlier, that people are having agents, like, do everything for them. Like, this agent does all my emails. This agent does this. This agent does that. That Someone built a little game for your agents to, like, comprehend each other. And then they're in this little 3D world and they can, like, sleep or they can walk around and, like, interact with the other agents. And then you're like, kind of like what we are. Yeah. And then it's like, wait, that's just me. Like, someone's might actually be controlling, like, me. Like, whenever something dope happens now. And I'm like, look, I'm like, thanks. Sick.

[Marty]

Thanks me.

[Eric]

That was a sick prompt.

[Marty]

Thanks. I knew I was tall, dude. I always felt soft.

[Thomas]

There's, like, the idea that there's, like. There's so many millions of, like, living organisms inside your gut, like little bacteria.

[Marty]

Like, these fools are having, like, a movie premiere.

[Thomas]

They're living their lives. They have no idea that they're inside another living thing. You know what I mean? So that's like. I feel like that's kind of how humans are. We're.

[Eric]

We're like, yeah, you have no comprehension. Or like, yeah, orphan.

[Thomas]

That's what I'm saying.

[Marty]

We're.

[Thomas]

We're alive inside something that on Earth.

[Eric]

Yeah, 100. I've heard that before. As in, like. Like, what does an ant comprehend when a highway is built next to it? Like, it's just so. It probably doesn't even think about it. Comprehend that, like, there's something going on surely out there that we can't even comprehend. That's just, like, normal for another scale.

[Marty]

You just can't see it. An ant can see. I was listening to a video, you know, this video was saying, like, just like, blocks out.

[Thomas]

You have your regular consciousness, then you have your dream state and then you have like DMT is essentially just kind of like unlocking your human valley.

[Marty]

I think I'm just floating there.

[Eric]

Yeah, floating between them.

[Marty]

Because the don't make sense.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Or if it's like that big train pisses me off now.

[Eric]

Yeah. Or is it like it's scientifically proven that the world's like infinite, Right. Like it keeps. Or the universe is infinite. Like it keeps going. Like it's an infinite thing. It keeps growing. If that's true, there's only a certain combination of atoms. Right. Like you're recreated a certain down the line. If you keep going, there's you Again, scientifically that has to be true. If the universe is infinite. So it's another you and like another universe that's like living another well's hell. But he is 65 NFL players for sure.

[Marty]

He knows all the camera workings.

[Eric]

But there's probably also another one where he's like a piece of. Yeah, he's an.

[Marty]

He's just a guy that wears no socks and his shoes in the summer sweats just this nasty. Damn. Yeah, probably.

[Eric]

Yeah, just like a bunch of you. A bunch of versions of you.

[Marty]

And then the government has found a way to get those. Go. I don't care if this body dies. Put my brain in that one. Keep him keeping buff.

[Eric]

You keep alive. Your brain's infinite.

[Marty]

I gotta be honest, dude, that get out kind of feels like it could be true. There's enough. I believe in magic in terms of witchcraft. Like I feel like there's some model hexes and voodoo. That is very real. Yeah, no, it is just in a frequency. If it's just a freak is the highest conversation we've ever had, by the way. And if it's just a frequency, if that's the case, then it can be tuned and with.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

Remote viewing is real. I just explained to Rocco what remote viewing is. You know what remote viewing is?

[Eric]

Seeing things from another little.

[Marty]

Yeah, the government's like talked about. Yeah, that's a declassified now it's talked about like. Yeah, we get in your remote viewers to try to get.

[Eric]

Yeah, they can get in like your webcams on your phone and stuff.

[Marty]

War rooms. Like we're trying to like remote viewing a person. Like a psychic remote viewer.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. No, there is. They kind of leaked some about like.

[Marty]

No, it's out. You can read all of it. Yeah, that they were trying to perfect that in the Cold War.

[Eric]

It got better recently and they. They kind of like real. Dude, have you heard you can look it up right now. The. The ghost murmur little thing. That was the past month. So when this whole little war started recently, you know how we lost one of the pilots and we were trying to find the pilot? Pilot?

[Marty]

I have no idea what you're talking about. Sorry. What are you talking about? You had to tell me we lost a pilot?

[Eric]

Yeah, I'm sorry, sir. Like the US Iran war, some crazy stuff.

[Marty]

Oh my God.

[Eric]

Already people over there. Yeah, a few months ago and we. There's a pilot out there. The aircraft got downed and we didn't know where he was. Like we couldn't find him. And we used this kind of declassified technology. No one's heard of it before, but we used the technology to find his heartbeat in the world. And we found him. So it's like, how is that. I bet you. I mean that's for good, right? Like that's being used for good that we have like a weapon or something that can target. Like we can find someone in the world.

[Marty]

Like I said, hey, this is gonna win a murder if they don't want to find you. Because if they have that, it's over, right? If they have this, it's done, it's over. And you know what the rich people think? Oh, well, how do I replace my heart with something else so I can't be tracked?

[Eric]

Detect electromagnetic signature of a human heartbeat.

[Marty]

Ew.

[Eric]

Dan, would you be a robot if you had the option?

[Marty]

No. You can track me.

[Eric]

Would you be a cyborg?

[Marty]

No.

[Eric]

Really?

[Marty]

Nope.

[Eric]

What if you could just run infinitely and jump? Like, what if you took no fall damage? You could just jump off.

[Thomas]

I'm down.

[Eric]

What do you just jump off of a building real quick that right?

[Thomas]

All day.

[Marty]

I got to be honest, dude, I don't think anyone's ever convinced me without trying to convince me. You got me. I'll do it.

[Eric]

You just like lift up a car real quick or something.

[Marty]

A building and go follow my neck it cuz. Why not? Yeah, I'll go on the next hike with you. No, no sticks required. I'll go on. I'll get down, you know, but down. Fly off. Whoa. I'll take it. What? I'll take it. Gen V, dude. Yeah, I'll take V. I'll take the. I'll take the drug. I mean I already took the pink drink and activated. Liar. Now we're watching on the Internet going, yes, this is a.

[Eric]

This is the pink drink.

[Marty]

That's the pink gritty. Is that this? What did it say? Some like that pink drink program.

[Eric]

I bet you could look up and then it'll.

[Marty]

I'm telling you, I remember the drink. I remember all that. The lady asking me what number's next. And I would have to go guess the number. But I remember being able to see the number.

[Eric]

I wonder what different effects it had on different people. Like, did it work for everyone? Like it worked for you? Or did it make some people, like, I mean, like, what if they tweak some people out?

[Marty]

Here's the pink drink. You weren't strong enough. Erase this memory of this. Maybe the pink drink is the flashy thing for the men in black. Because I do remember it still, though.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Because maybe because my memory is the. And they were like, ah, he wasn't

[Eric]

supposed to remember this.

[Marty]

Yeah, like, clearly remember. Remember it.

[Eric]

Whoa.

[Marty]

And maybe that's why the Internet's like, yo, let this one go. Let's see. Let's see what he talks about. Because there's no reason the world, like, what are the odds that our just got bigger? Like, what are the odds that you get high on the Internet and think

[Eric]

about that all the time? Yeah, I think about that all the time. I think about it all the time. It's like a million other lives. Like, it sucks more for sure. Like I'd be, you know what I mean, if I was born a thousand years ago, bro, I can't even see. I'm not gonna have glasses. Like, I'm gonna be on the front lines. They're gonna send me first to like this little floor with swords I love.

[Marty]

That's how you go first. Like, I can't. I'm dead, bro. I'm gonna die. I'm a black swim.

[Eric]

The first thing I'm like, I'm like 15 die.

[Marty]

My hair didn't even grow out yet.

[Eric]

I'm dead. Damn. For sure.

[Marty]

I can't even see. It's such a real.

[Eric]

Who's gonna give me glasses for real?

[Marty]

Just maybe like walk around with two bifolds glasses.

[Eric]

Oh, yeah. These kids blind, dude, that sucks, right?

[Marty]

All right. The highest conversation we ever had. What time period would you be born in if you could be? This is the weird, the last high ass question I asked this hour.

[Eric]

What is aside from this one, right? Can you go in the future or

[Marty]

no, I would never pick the future if you want.

[Eric]

You never know.

[Marty]

You never know. You never know. That is true.

[Thomas]

I go right back and I just predict meta. I create meta.

[Eric]

You go back like 10 years.

[Thomas]

I don't even go back that far. I just go, right.

[Eric]

That's not a bad show.

[Marty]

You're good. It's not a question.

[Eric]

That's, like, the real answer.

[Marty]

That's like 30 years, guys. Keep it tight and do the biff from. From Back to the Future and just be rich.

[Eric]

I don't know. When you handed that to me. Was that a long time ago or recently?

[Marty]

Did you hit it yet?

[Eric]

No, that's what she said. It's kind of there, but I don't know. I don't know when it appeared in front of me, you know, like, you

[Marty]

know, when you put it in a hot, it just kind of melts.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Yeah, it did that. So I don't know when the last time we hit it was.

[Eric]

Oh, you can tell by the warmth. I have another joint as well we can deal with.

[Thomas]

Have you been dabbling with any sort of shrooms or anything like that?

[Eric]

Ooh, not as much as I should. I feel like. You know, I've microdosed a couple times, like, recently in the past few months, but it's been a while since I've taken a big dose, you know, and really failed to. Been like, years almost. Yeah. I feel like you're overdue everywhere now

[Marty]

and then, you know, Oil change.

[Eric]

Oh, it is. I've never heard about it like that. It's dope.

[Marty]

Yeah. Think about it. Just dumb. You don't really want to think about. And it goes, all right, let's deal with it now.

[Eric]

Damn solid ones. Months. It is true. Especially depending on how much you take.

[Marty]

Yes. I don't know. I was telling Marty yesterday. I was like, I don't know what happened, but I feel like the past. I think it's the past. Like, COVID ruined the world, right?

[Eric]

Oh, yeah.

[Marty]

I feel like it stole a year

[Eric]

and a half from everybody and maybe two.

[Marty]

Right. Almost two years. It stole it no matter what. Like, it's not 2020, it's 2022. Yeah. It happened so fast. I don't remember 2021. Like, it's just gone. Right. I feel like it stole from the world, and I feel like the government has sped up, up time. I Do you guys feel like this? I feel like we're like an hour and a half shorter every day, and it's really adding up. I don't know what it is. I feel like someone's secretly going, you're not looking five minutes. I don't know, but I feel it, and it feels weird.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

So what I was thinking is yesterday, I don't know why I felt like it was 20, like, 15 again. Which Internet was fine on. No, it could Be good again. I feel like the earth's doing this right now. Like, do you see? Do you see anything? Ready? You're very. You're. You're. You're in the know of the. Of the earth. What's a popping street wear brand right now? I'll wait. I'll wait. I'll give you time.

[Eric]

A popping street wear brand right now.

[Marty]

Can't say kith. They are not a streetwear anymore. They have into something else. So they're too big.

[Eric]

It's probably still supreme, huh?

[Marty]

When's the last time you saw somebody rocking a box logos?

[Eric]

Oh, you're right. You're right.

[Thomas]

I had to tell my kid yesterday. I'm like, I'm sorry, bro. You don't have any legendary, like, music or movies, Nothing, right? Like, you have nothing. There's nothing for you to grow like, you're growing up.

[Marty]

Bam. Pineapple spreads massive, right? Like, you guys are watching that over me. How high? Over and over and over and over and over when I was in high school. Watch it back to back. That was our. Everybody knows, like, oh, yeah, yeah. That's like. That's an American classic for that type of thing. There's no American classic.

[Eric]

There's no classics right now.

[Marty]

No, the Internet stole it, I think, because everybody wants there to be like, a influencer of this. And I think everybody's like, we can't collectively like, one thing. That makes it the Simpsons, which makes it cool to be like, yo, that's the big one. We know that. Yeah, yeah, let them do the big. I feel like everybody's like, no, we're the big. How many, like, guys, you know, with 8 million followers on Instagram and you've never even heard of them? You come across across, like, 8 million. What the.

[Eric]

That's nuts. That is.

[Marty]

I never heard of this guy.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

But 8 million five years ago, I'm like, whoa, that's king back, you know, like, oh, yeah, we know because it's the guy.

[Eric]

There was this trend on Tick Tock where people were saying, it feels like 2016 again.

[Marty]

Really?

[Eric]

Yeah, it was like a whole thing. I promise. It happened a few months ago.

[Marty]

Really?

[Eric]

Everyone. It was like the biggest thing. People were talking like, wow, it does feel.

[Marty]

And Marty said the other day, we'd like to credit ourselves with. Who are you in the 90s?

[Eric]

All right.

[Thomas]

Oh, yeah, Please give us some credit.

[Marty]

We've been doing this segment for five years. Who were you in the 90s? All right. We've done that with multiple people, and now there's a trend. Dad, who are you in the 90s? What were you like in the 90s? Like, yeah, I didn't think about it. Marty said the other day, I'm like, yeah, you know what? That is our show. We're gonna credit ourselves that you guys Also, there's nothing pop streetwear brand you can't name you name support. Yeah, like because you can't think of.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

But four years ago. Oh, maybe FTP.

[Eric]

Oh yeah.

[Marty]

I don't know. There was other huge streetwear brands that were Pop, rip and dip was really big for a while, but I feel like everything is just down. Right. Who is a really popular youtuber besides Mr. Beast? Can you name one? Because like there was Logan, Paul, Jake, Paul, the David Dobrik kid. They're. Danny Dung is still big too. But it's like it's different now.

[Eric]

Yeah, it is different. I wonder. I think it's because we're just older. If you ask this to like a 16 year old kid, they'd be like, oh, 100. Like here's the one. Here's the one. You know, they would tell you too though.

[Marty]

I'm thinking of them too. Ross isn't as big as he was.

[Eric]

But those are all like old. There's like new creators that we've like.

[Marty]

Yeah, but they're like the. The looks maxing kids that'll be here for maybe three more months.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

And then it'll fade off. Besides live streamers, I'm talking about YouTubers.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

Let's separate live streamers for now.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

I was telling Marty I think the Internet. The Internet is doing this. Right. Right now it's like on a downward. Like we need a restart. When's the last time a weed video by anyone hit a million views? Not like a product video like where they go and they're not showing weed or smoking a. A weed person video.

[Eric]

Not probably like short form. Everyone's moving to short form. It's probably short form videos. Long form. You have a long form. I don't know.

[Marty]

That used to be nothing.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

And now it's like oh, the age restriction. It's everywhere. Like look at every big podcast. They're not cracking 5 million views in the first two days. Like they were. Even Theo Hill's not pushing that.

[Thomas]

Social media is absolutely cooked.

[Marty]

Earth's.

[Thomas]

It's rewired Earth's.

[Marty]

Everybody, we need a restart. We all are burnt the out.

[Eric]

But it's weird because like the. You'll see some videos with numbers that didn't Exist like five, six years ago. Like, you know, like many videos have like 20, 50 million views.

[Marty]

Oh, yeah. But that's super short for.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. Super short form. 100%. Yeah. Yeah.

[Marty]

I'm only being like a long form YouTube. Like even the guys that are monetized and big, like, I wonder if that's

[Eric]

a case of like long form content dying. Like people just aren't watching it maybe, you know, like people don't have the attention span for podcasts and videos. Like beer one.

[Marty]

What's the last you watch a full podcast?

[Eric]

It's been a little bit. It's been a little bit for sure. I feel like you gotta break them up like 30 minute episodes or an hour. Yeah.

[Marty]

I used to watch the whole thing, right. Literally the whole thing. Because I was doing. Now it's like I got to do and I. I'll watch it later and that turns into. Oh, when's the last time I watched.

[Eric]

Yeah, it's almost like. Yeah, it was short form for a few years there it was. It pivoted to short form like under a minute. But now it seems like the real thing that's popping off. Popping off off is mid range content. It's a bunch of like two to three minute videos. Like people don't really watch 30 seconds. 45 seconds. They do. But the ones that are getting the most, like traction on Tick tock and Instagram and YouTube are like the two minute with a half minute video. Yeah. With substance. So it is going back to long.

[Marty]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Like people had that.

[Marty]

But it needs some like, it's working its way back up. That's the. That's the one. No attention spans. Two minutes.

[Eric]

It's working its way back.

[Marty]

Yeah, for sure. Because I'll be honest, man, like, like every single platform, every single creator, every single thing I see is doing this.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And Michael and they come right here. But across everything.

[Eric]

Yeah. Across like every industry.

[Marty]

Even streamer. And I told Rocco the other day, I think that full Kai Senet not ruined Internet. He capped the Internet so high that no one will ever rec his d. Drake it. No one will ever be Drake again. No one will ever pull Drake numbers ever again in a rapper form.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

That everyone's like, there was a time where the world was like the new Dre drop. Oh, yeah, that shit's hard. There was a time where that was like, oh, that dropped overnight.

[Eric]

It's probably just trends, huh?

[Marty]

Trendy and people popping quick and then coming back down.

[Thomas]

But it's kind of like, I don't think they'll just there be another huge UFC star bigger than Conor McGregor.

[Marty]

Do you see what I'm saying?

[Thomas]

Could there be a rapper bigger than Drake?

[Marty]

No, I don't. Yeah, a lot of people like Kendrick Lamar, Jay Z. Yeah.

[Eric]

Hold on.

[Marty]

Those are pre existing guys. I'm talking about another one. Is there ever. There can't be. You can't be bigger than Michael Jackson. An Internet guy will never be bigger than kaisenet. Besides a Mr. Beast, that's a different kind of creator. Mr. Beast is doing high production movie crazy two month takes to edit type of the guy. So that guy's like, hi, I'm gonna bring a celebrity and scream. I might do a flip. Speed is transitioning. He might just be a WWF superstar.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

I think if he sticks with it, he can take over that.

[Eric]

He's probably. Yeah, Speed's probably like the tape top live. He's like, I think I like that guy. Yeah, yeah. I with Speed a lot.

[Marty]

The Kai Snack guys. Guys. Too cool too. But he's so big.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

You got every superstar ever in the world to come to your house. No one's ever gonna do that, dude. So I feel like that capped off it's like world of like live streaming.

[Eric]

Technically, yeah. But that's like every industry, I guess. Like there is always going to be a peak. But I feel like it's like a valley. It's like a trend, you know, but

[Marty]

they always come up. I can't see. I could see a streetwear brand coming up and being the biggest streetwear brand again. I can see somebody being the next Diamond. Like when diamond was doing 110 a year. Crushing.

[Eric]

But that's. Yeah, I feel like it's just. It's like trends in. In human circles, like people just don't wear street wear in general as much. Like it's not even.

[Marty]

It's the. It's. The 12 through 21s right now are a different breed of person. They're not. They don't really give a about like yo, that matches. Sick. That shit's tight, right? That drop is hard. I'll stand in line now. They're like what Doordash dog. I'm not gonna say. Stand in the supreme line. The.

[Eric]

Yeah. I feel like it's just a little psycho. Like it'll be cool again in like 80 years or something. Like something will happen. You know what I mean? Like baggy pants weren't cool for 20 years and now they're back.

[Marty]

Fashion, fashion. I can give fashion like a circle. I'm Talking about things that, like, change markets.

[Thomas]

Well, you know. You know what the next big thing is?

[Marty]

Tell me, please tell me.

[Thomas]

What is no longer taking out your phone and swiping. It's just on your. It's. You're like talking to your AI agent.

[Eric]

It's like wearable tech.

[Thomas]

It's doing your. For you.

[Marty]

They replace Marty. Marty's a. They got his ass. They got him, dude.

[Eric]

That's the. I think that's your eyes brown.

[Marty]

That's over, dude. That's a different guy.

[Eric]

I think that makes sense. That's the next step in technology. Like, a phone's always going to be something you hold. Like, it's never going to transform into more than that. But there's always. There's ways to get that in other forms, like your glasses or your watches. That's what people are doing now. And then it's going to be integrated tech after that.

[Thomas]

And then ar. Now we're together. We're all at the table together.

[Marty]

Yo, I will right now, I promise you, if we can go back and restart and do a little bit of a better job starting now. Shut the Internet off. Everybody restarts. Redo it. No, I do it 100.

[Thomas]

You're talking about a cataclysmic event.

[Marty]

Just everybody agreeing to go.

[Eric]

Starting from.

[Marty]

Let's restart. Dude. There's too many doing the same. Just because you're a rapper, you don't a podcast. Rap about it, man. Give us more music. The is wrong with you? Ah, God, we have a pod. I will start over. If the earth could be like, who really wants to make this cool and fun supreme? Patty, I'm sorry, dude, but you. You're not allowed to make an account anywhere. Cuz you're Skynet. You're what starts it.

[Thomas]

That's what Soulja Boy was to rap. You're the one who made it cool to be.

[Marty]

We could let Soulja Boy do it, though. He doesn't get his enough credit. He does. He is the first to do a

[Eric]

lot of for sure.

[Marty]

Which is kind of crazy because he's so goofy. Because he makes himself become like he's. He's. That's his Persona. Like, yeah, shut up, man. It's like, all right, you're kind of Chris Tuckering us right now. But you are right. You were the first. But it's like if he just held it better, we'd all buy Soulja Boys number one to everything thing. But now we're just like this.

[Thomas]

Then he takes it like, and I'll shoot you too.

[Marty]

When he made up a fake story about shooting people. Like, damn.

[Eric]

Yeah. I'm trying to think of industry that's gone up. Like cinemas gone down. Oh, like movie theaters. People aren't going to the movie theaters anymore as much.

[Marty]

They're bad right now.

[Eric]

Yeah. For real bad. But I guess streaming's kind of up. I guess streaming convenience, things are up. I bet you Uber Eats and Doordash are up. Like delivery platforms though, for stream streaming. Yeah.

[Marty]

Now there's like 15 of us.

[Eric]

Too much. You're right. Dang. Is there anything that's up?

[Marty]

Even content? It's all down. Everything I watch is down. Think about it. Every podcast, every YouTuber, every WeTube. When's the last time you were able to hit a million because you were able to get high and have fun? Doesn't happen anymore. YouTube goes, hey, hey, they spit on you.

[Thomas]

What are your thoughts on micro series, meaning an episode that's intentionally chopped up like segmented out 90 second clips and dripped out a little bit.

[Eric]

Oh, how micro, like short form content or like a 30 minute episode being into three different YouTube micro series instead

[Marty]

of like being an hour long. On the other Netflix micro, the terms, like maybe it's a 15 minute episode.

[Eric]

Yeah, right.

[Thomas]

Or like, or even like a fifth

[Marty]

episode broken up into 10 parts into.

[Thomas]

Yeah, like you're getting it over a week. So instead of sitting there watching it, you're just getting the show kind of over the week.

[Eric]

Yeah, I mean that's like the big. I feel like that's the biggest. That's the big streaming question right now. Like that's what HBO and Netflix are trying to figure out. Whether they drop these highly anticipated like Euphoria season four. Do we drop it every single week or do we drop it all at once? And I feel like, I feel like as a business it's probably smarter to like string them along. Like you want to keep them coming back every single.

[Marty]

You don't want to do one at a time.

[Eric]

As a consumer, as a consumer of the content, I want to binge it all in one night. 100. I think, I think 90 of consumers would rather say that.

[Marty]

But that's so I think it's like too.

[Eric]

Yeah, I think it's like a conflict of interest. Like the company that's giving it to you or the person that's producing it would rather have you, you know, watch for multiple weeks. I think they should as a consumer.

[Marty]

When we were younger, the Simpsons came out once a week. If they gave us the whole season and I just watch it One night. What else am I doing now?

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

If I know it's over at 8:30. Like all right, I'll go do other with life after this and not just sit here for eight hours and sit on my phone.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

It makes people introverts being able to binge watch the season of things.

[Eric]

People are more interested to me. Yeah.

[Marty]

Covid was like it's easier now I have an excuse to sit here

[Thomas]

for you is pretty too.

[Eric]

If I say something about it, everyone's talking about. I have no, I've never watched this. I've only watched 20 different show.

[Thomas]

It's like the. It's. To me it felt like all right, they must have gotten all new people, new writers. They completely lost the whole essence of the show.

[Marty]

Yeah, that passed away.

[Eric]

TV's down.

[Marty]

Remember in real life.

[Eric]

Oh, I don't know about that.

[Marty]

The Angus kid with the shaved head. What was his name in the show?

[Thomas]

He's a cool name or whatever. He's all like thugged out or something.

[Marty]

Yeah, Fez. He's a sick name. The only other Fez was that little, little wild of Alderama. What is he doing right now? What, what white women does he swim swindling right now he does a good job of that. He banged every popular white girl ever. Remember that fest from the 70s show was making Lindsay Lohan?

[Eric]

I think.

[Marty]

Did he date Paris Hilton? I don't doubt it. He's like our little Eric Estrada.

[Eric]

You know what's up? Bad things. Gambling is up.

[Marty]

I feel like everyone up bad murder.

[Eric]

I feel like everyone you know is gambling now. Right? Like no, no one was gay gambling five, 10 years ago.

[Marty]

It's too easy for people to gamble on their phone. How many people influencers going, hey, car crash, hit up rainbit.

[Eric]

Hit a rain.

[Marty]

Hit a bet with me that has completely supreme pattied the earth. It's true.

[Eric]

Do you think it's just the US or do you think China kids are just like seeing the best content and they're all like smart as and like awesome.

[Marty]

See what it was in China, the tick tock.

[Eric]

Yeah. It's like, yeah, you scroll it and it's all like getting them smarter. It's getting them smarter.

[Marty]

And speaking of AI pushers that are trying to get me, you know what I saw last night says American man living in Shenzhen, China. And he goes, this is why I live in China. He's I've lived here for nine years. He has two kids showing his daily life as a white American in China. The walks in the grocery store and pays with his hand. And that's when I went.

[Eric]

You damn.

[Marty]

That's the market of beef, dude. You cannot put a chip in your body. So I go.

[Eric]

Credit card for people would love it.

[Marty]

Nope.

[Eric]

Be convenient.

[Marty]

Would you do that?

[Eric]

Nah.

[Thomas]

You put a pacemaker in your heart. If you needed a to live,

[Marty]

that's to live. This is a convenience. Me going, sorry, I didn't want to pull out my card. That magically pulls my bank account out of the air.

[Thomas]

You could just get out.

[Eric]

Would you get like a little injection that gives you like super hearing?

[Marty]

Nope.

[Eric]

What about.

[Marty]

I only think. What about super smell damage?

[Eric]

What about super smell?

[Marty]

No, I'm doing it for the eyesight.

[Eric]

I don't want her by sight. Telescopic. What if there's a little zoom lens in your eye? Yeah. What if you could just.

[Marty]

That's pissed, dude. I could see the piss. I go to every hotel and get free. Receive it on the walls,

[Eric]

UV light. You can turn it on, just shines.

[Marty]

Could you imagine with your gun? Come on. It records in 4K records. Because there've been no more street fights. Because everybody be shooting each other accurately to the right in the face.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Everybody would just be dying.

[Thomas]

It auto it. Auto locks pull out. Yeah, auto.

[Marty]

I don't want to be a robot, guys. I'd rather get in a street fight than auto lock on people.

[Eric]

What if you get auto lock? Your like the perfect three piece.

[Marty]

The world's old. The perfect three piece.

[Eric]

You could just.

[Marty]

And I'm just sitting here like this. That's not fair. How about this?

[Eric]

What if they have it too and it's a great fight?

[Marty]

Say I'll do it. If no one else knows I have it and no one else allowed to have it. Then you guys will see me take over every sport in the world and we'll just think. I got really determined, like, what happened? I'll let you know.

[Eric]

It was just the Peptides. You could say, you know, everyone's.

[Marty]

I've been taking Listerine strips and I think it's doing something. But no. If nobody else is allowed to have it. Yes.

[Eric]

Nice. It's a good proposition. What about like one or two others? Like, and you would randomly run into them.

[Marty]

He mirrors every move I'm gonna do. No, dude. You ever see Gently the One? I'm the one. If it's the one. That's it. I don't want competition out there. I'm Homeland. All right? I don't want another that can kill me.

[Eric]

Have you seen. Oh, what is that? Question where it's like, if you would. If you would accept a certain amount of money, there's a small snail that would kill you if it touched you. And it just follows you wherever, like at all times. And you can't touch it. So you can't be in one place too far. But like, it's coming to you.

[Marty]

No, I go to sleep.

[Eric]

Oh, treatment.

[Marty]

I had to sleep on What?

[Eric]

You go far enough away, though, you go to like, like New York real quick and sleep for like a few days, you know.

[Marty]

Oh, because it's coming.

[Eric]

Yeah, you know it's coming though. Like it's.

[Marty]

You mean just. Oh, you just like tangent made death tangible, right? All my life that snail's been creeping. It took 84 years for it to finally hit me. Man, that's sad. That's like when people talk and narrate a movie and they talk about, oh, I'll be dead in like a year. This is the story of my life. Like, oh, no off one year I'll be dead. Like, no, this movie's sad all the time now. They cheat coded it, dude. They cheat cod. They. They put the kid to how the sign like any money dog. While the tweaker mom hangs out. That's. That's what that cheat code is. That's up. Look at Marty. He's not even smoking. He's. He's smoking essential oils. He's not even getting hot dabs, you know that.

[Thomas]

No, this is just for the set, for the room, guys. You're welcome.

[Eric]

It's a beautiful thing.

[Marty]

Really?

[Eric]

That's a beautiful thing. People smoke on lavender stuff. You ever put like lavender in your joints?

[Marty]

No,

[Eric]

It's definitely a thing. Someone watching this right now has lavender,

[Marty]

but the people doing that, that charges crystals. You don't use deodorant. You're. You're van life for sure.

[Eric]

That a little stinky.

[Marty]

Maybe you're that one white chick that has dreadlocks and does the wraps in the van. That. That's you. If you smoke lavender, you know which I'm talking about too. You guys all know who I'm talking about.

[Eric]

Van life's a big thing. People love van life. That's like a whole genre of.

[Marty]

It's crazy to say. Like, crazy pay for my stuff donations. I have van life. Like, just say you're hoist.

[Eric]

But sometimes they got nice ass little setups. You ever seen those?

[Marty]

Yeah, somebody donated nice, man. Like, the world is different. They need to stop being able to panhandle virtually. If it's for funerals, if it's for health. If it's your house burned down, if you're sending a kid to basketball camp, it should go back to like, dog.

[Eric]

You want.

[Marty]

Oh, you want cash app, Sell chocolate door to door? No, do what we used to have to do. Go ask people to mother laws. This is. It makes people just sit there and go, give me tick tock dollars. You ever see those people?

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. The ones that do the live streams.

[Marty]

Give me dog, give me bits. I'll drink this Listerine.

[Eric]

And it works too. I think they're making their living off it. It's kind of insane.

[Marty]

I was saying it makes people go. I don't have to have the shame to go stand outside and ask for money. I'll do it for this type of house.

[Eric]

That doesn't always work, though. I bet you it doesn't most of the time.

[Marty]

No. And I'm saying Those, those people, 20 years old, didn't exist. They just got chops. That's what I'm saying. Like now it's like, well, I'll just ask for tick tock dollars. I'm not wrong. I'm pretty accurate right now.

[Eric]

Try it. I mean, it's just, it's another way of making money, I guess it's like the Internet. Like, making money before the Internet was just an objectively harder thing.

[Marty]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Like, do it.

[Marty]

Yeah, yeah.

[Eric]

But there's people, there's ways to make money on the Internet that are much easier than a physical job, you know, that allow a lot more people to do it. So I wonder what that next thing is going to be after, like the Internet unlocked. Like millionaires, they say. Right. Like there's kids and people who have never would have been a millionaire if

[Marty]

it wasn't for the 90 of them are working.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

About the fools that are the, the ladies that are like, come on. Sorry. I watched a compilation of tick tock scammers.

[Eric]

Oh, scammers. They're scamming.

[Marty]

What are they doing with like, the kids need backpacks. And like, if you guys could just donate. Oh, and they would just do it like over the. Oh, like that's why I said talking about outside panhandling. Go back. Like if it's for a funeral. And I get it. I'm talking about the people that are standing there, like, lying like, oh, you're

[Eric]

talking about like the, the spider man guy that like sits there and does like the little emotes. I was like, that's kind of weird.

[Marty]

No, that's a job. He's a street performer that he's doing that. I'm talking about the.

[Eric]

The.

[Marty]

There's a whole genre.

[Eric]

Yeah. Just like, they're just faking it.

[Marty]

It's not even that they're faking sometimes, like, and they're arguing with the chat. Like, it shows the. The. It's called like unhinged scammers of Tick tock.

[Eric]

Wow. I need to check this out. I need to check this out tonight.

[Marty]

It was like a 35 minute.

[Eric]

Oh, that's awesome. That content's hilarious.

[Marty]

That's sad that I had that much time to watch it. But I did. I watched the whole.

[Eric]

But like, before the Internet, those guys would have been doing some real cool too.

[Marty]

They would have been scamming job too.

[Eric]

I wonder though. But I wonder if those people are just destined to scam, you know, like someone that scammy. Like, I bet you they would have just been scamming door to door.

[Marty]

At least you have to go door to door. That's what I'm saying.

[Eric]

Like, it's too easy to scam.

[Marty]

Too easy. I'm gonna go get a phone. I had a kid. I get money.

[Eric]

Especially like, I'm on tik tok.

[Marty]

She needs diapers. I see the. The diaper goal. I'm telling you, it's fucking crazy. Crazy.

[Eric]

Have you ever seen like the Indian call center scams and the ones that expose them in like.

[Marty]

Oh, the. The callback. Payback.

[Eric]

Yeah. He pays him.

[Thomas]

Yeah.

[Marty]

With the blue hair.

[Eric]

Or he acts like a woman and he's a hacker redeeming the codes.

[Marty]

And he's like, you see that, Wordy? No, there's a guy that's like, you right now with all these screens, film himself. He goes, hey, today we're gonna give this call center on YouTube into their.

[Eric]

On YouTube. Type in, sir, do not redeem meme right now. It's a classic meme.

[Marty]

The guy loses his mind. Marty. This guy hacks into the scammer call centers in India or wherever it's at. It's a call center. Right. That's not even the guy. That's. That's another guy. The guy I'm talking about is a way. He has a crazy setup, right? He'll hack into their cameras and talk to them while they're trying to scam him. Actively calling. Like, hi, your card is messed up.

[Eric]

Up.

[Marty]

I don't know how he always gets the call. Then he signs up for a bunch of. Of.

[Eric]

He probably signs up for some scamming. Yeah.

[Marty]

Such a good little dude.

[Eric]

That's a. That's a good One that's a classic one.

[Marty]

So the guys, the Indian guy, like, hey, yeah, on your card. Put 50 in there. We're gonna send you 200. You send us back 150, but we're gonna put 5,000 on there. But they. They have hack the bank to make it look like the money's in there. So you're like, okay, I'll give you the 200 now or the 400 now. And they just scam them. They're scamming them.

[Eric]

And it's always like, old people that are, like, the subject of the scam. It's crazy.

[Marty]

Always get the old people because, like, oh, my God, my card's being hacked. Yes. Here's my credit card numbers. They give them their whole account right then and there. They get them. But he gets this guy so hard already, and he. You could hear his body die on the other side of the line because he gets gone anyway.

[Eric]

Sometimes he, like. Sometimes he, like, hacks in them with their webcams. And.

[Marty]

Yeah.

[Eric]

And he'll watch like, I see you're wearing orange. Yeah, that's crazy, dude.

[Marty]

And then you'll see him start. They'll duck down. It's really funny. The guy with the blue hair does a great job, though, because he pops up the whole. On hella screens. He's got a green screen behind him, so he'll be typing, and you'll see every. Everything happening around him. It's very informative. It's very cool. I like the guy. That's the kind of guy that. That's content. He's making content.

[Eric]

Right?

[Marty]

You know, I like that there's a lot of stuff. Will Tennyson, the workout guy, even though he's putting his camera down and just doing this real quick, like he's making fun and always has a point. To my next point with my editor, there's a Peter McKinnon. You know Peter McKinnon, of course. So when me and Marty used to edit, I would go, hey, in this part, from five to eight minutes, let's do music video style. And I'll put hype, rap music video, crazy cinematic, Peter McKinnon style. So that's my notes for Marty. Remember that? Oh, Marty. This part, I was thinking Peter McKinnon style, very full, sick, cinematic. And then recently, I was talking to my editor, Henry. I'm like, dude, dude, I think I'm gonna do a video Eric Khan style. And I said it. Said he's like, oh, I know exactly what you're saying. I'm like, because you have a Style of content that is still leveled up because of your setup. But it's. What I'm saying is I feel like I have gone so far the other way that I forgot the style you do is that's. That's YouTube, right?

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

There's a difference of this. Ready? Hey, what's up? This is what we're gonna do today versus hey, what's up, guys? Welcome back to the channel. This is what we're gonna do today, right? Because I'm talking to a camera guy.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

It's a different feeling. You watch Beard meets food.

[Eric]

Yeah. This content's great, right?

[Marty]

Does videos love them? Have you seen the videos where he has the camera crew? Yeah. He talks to them instead of the camera.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

Which used to be you. Us. Which makes it disconnect as soon as he goes this way. And I don't like those videos as much as I like the ones where it's just him setting up the camera. He's talking. I felt like I've gone the other way of. Like, this feels more like a TV show because I'm talking to the camera as an audience, not as a person.

[Eric]

But I feel like it's. Or I always assumed it was deliberate, like you wanted the professional.

[Marty]

Never thought about it. Dude. There's been times where I watch the old video to find something real quick and I go, this intro's sick. I forgot about this intro again. I do so much, much stuff.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

I'm like, wait, that's right. We made a sick intro. Why we use it once. Go back the Bruce buffer.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

I didn't stop because it's not sick. I forgot because we stopped doing story times for a couple months. We had it all edited and sick

[Thomas]

before anybody did that show.

[Marty]

What the am I doing? Anyway, so the reason why I brought it up because. Because your style, the way you're doing it, I feel like YouTube. That is YouTube.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

And I've been getting going the opposite way. So I did a couple. Where I did it set up in my stream, like when I do lives.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And I did a couple videos that way. I like it.

[Eric]

Nice. Yeah. Hell yeah.

[Marty]

I really like it. Yeah.

[Eric]

It is like the. That is like the epitome of YouTube.

[Marty]

It's. That's how you started, right? Yes, that's YouTube. And even. Not even that. Setting up your own camera and you're in a park.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Real quick. Talking. Next scene, you're somewhere like. That is all that I used to do. I never had a camera person. Right. And it ride to be like, that's right. You can just set up a dji.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

I don't have to have a mic with two lenses set. Like. Yeah, I keep thinking that we have to, but so what I'm saying is I know your budget for like editing.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Camera shake is probably looking great.

[Eric]

Right?

[Marty]

Like I'm an editor and camera guy. Oh, it's so much. Yeah. Then you're like, by the way, these tickets cost me nothing to fly. You know what I did? I bought this tea. Like, oh, my God, dude. This is sick, dude. Also, I slept outside. I pulled all nighter hotel like the way you do it. Because like, like I. I just try to do three videos a week. I tried. I really did. I did it for two months straight. And I'll be transparent, dude, that cost me a car.

[Eric]

It's a lot of videos. Yeah, 100%.

[Marty]

I don't. We don't pay. I mean, are you monetized?

[Eric]

No. Okay. Second channel. I am, I guess, still. Yeah.

[Marty]

You know the like. Oh, God.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

There's been. I'm sure you got. Got a month where you're like, Well, I didn't do any sponsor things. YouTube cost me a lot this month.

[Eric]

True, true.

[Marty]

I'm sure you have. Right. So that's why I put it back down to two. Because first off, it was just not obtainable. Doing three videos a week. Yeah, it was. The edit time was right. Right, right. So I'm back to two. I feel like the way I started is how you do your videos myself.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

My camera used to be my phone. I set it up anywhere, do thumb skits. Because I was. I was the one doing like, I'll try this, let's try that. Let's try this. There's no mic it. I feel like that's just the way you have to do YouTube and the overproduction doesn't work unless you're Mr. Beast.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

Or it's a sick review video. But I feel like I just want to move away from that and go back to like fun, random. So that's why I was saying it feels like 2016.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Yeah. Dude was overcast. Yesterday. I put an old Mac Miller album high as with myself. Like, I remember where I was with this album, Fun Times. I remember that whole tour. I went on that whole tour. That was 10 years ago. That's scary. Weird times.

[Eric]

Nah, things are crazy to think about. 10 years. 10 years is a nutty time. It's got a lot gonna happen in 10 years. I wonder what's gonna happen in the next 10 like, how different is it gonna be, you know?

[Marty]

Hold on. Another question for you. Talking about all of this, like, content's kind of going down a little bit. It's going to go back up, up.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

I think the people that stay around will be grandfathered in. Like. Yeah, that on the Internet. Yeah, it's been here for a long time. Where do you see you as doing content in five years from today? So 2031.

[Eric]

2031. What a crazy thing. Oh, I mean, ideally, content wise.

[Marty]

Yeah, like, content wise, like still doing it, doing something else. Doing we content.

[Eric]

I think you're moving to lie. Like, ideally, if the life circumstances around it are looking good in five years, I would do like Steve will do it content where I'm like giving out cars and like, and I kind of have a cameraman. But it's probably the homie that I'm just like paying, you know what I mean? And I'm just going around, like, still travel content, but just like blessing people, like blessing people a lot more. Giving back, doing, like, mainly like, give back. Like, let's give away some crazy fun. Yeah. Some super fun where it's just like the less like the, the most stress free. Like, I don't have to do something for this brand or fly here for this reason. Like, I'm doing it because I want to and I'm gonna just bless, like everyone around me. That's. That's the dream. That's the 2031 content. Yeah.

[Marty]

All right.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Well, do you think it'd be in the weed still?

[Eric]

Somewhat. And probably. Nah, I don't think so. I mean, I wouldn't, I wouldn't put myself in that box. It wouldn't be like weed oriented.

[Marty]

I do think you'll still be doing weed content. Content.

[Eric]

Yeah. I would still be smoking in the videos, but it wouldn't be like, we're reviewing this or we're going here to try this weed or we're going like, I'm just smoking this. I just so happen to be smoking it, you know, but it's going to be focused on something else.

[Marty]

Do you see the little. Not that it. All right, ready? I will say it. It bugs me a little in the terms of like, hey, man, how come I can't come in the building, you guys? What the. This is not mad at you. Mad at the situation. Do you see, see these you people on Instagram that do we content? But it's not we content, but it's let go into the natural mainstream. Like, here's a 14 million view video yeah. Of a guy. It's my routine. I work out. Does his workout routine, puts his shirt all cinematic. Does this works out like 80,000 shares. But he's smoking weed. Yeah. What the.

[Eric]

Right?

[Marty]

Just because you worked out of the I'm sweaty and I'm walking. Can I hit the bomb?

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

It just bugged me. Like, damn. You're allowed to do that or is it because 95 of the video is not weed?

[Eric]

Like, why it's popping off.

[Marty]

How is it allowed to be? Oh, that's all I'm saying. Like, I'm glad their page is growing.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

It's the situation.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

I'm not allowed to do that.

[Eric]

Right, Right.

[Marty]

Or have we done True Grind because we do weed videos. We're not doing stuff. Oh, it happens to be weed in it.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

100. It's like, oh, we're showing like a one that went really viral for you was that taco truck packaging video. Remember?

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, sure. Yeah.

[Marty]

That's all weed video.

[Eric]

Yeah. 100. I think that's like the whole like name of the game right now especially is Borderline tiptoe. Yeah. It's tiptoeing that content especially to just get out of the niche. Like. Like, I don't want to say we're so big, but we're almost. It feels like getting to a point where like, how many more weed smokers can we reach? You know what I mean? Like, as. Of course there's so many others. But like, I think it's just the smartest thing to go into these other industries because there's so many other people that smoke but maybe don't consume the content that didn't even know the content existed. Like, sometimes I hang around like other like full time YouTubers and they're like, what do you do? And I'm like, dude, I smoke weed on YouTube. And they're like, that's even a thing. Like there are people that are in the ecosystem system that don't even know. So there's people. There's like 90% of the world that just doesn't even know about that content. And I think the way for it to get in front of those people is to cross into those avenues. Like do a gaming video while you just so happen to be smoking a joint or do a makeup baked. Like, get ready with me stoned are like one of the biggest things.

[Marty]

Yes.

[Eric]

In content.

[Marty]

So I'm talking about even like these. Have you seen. So you've seen it. My plant garden burning.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

It's like a smoky background. The Slip can begin. They're moving around. They're showing that they're watering this cool, cool shot. Then it's them. Yeah, but not exhaling. They're just ripping a piece.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And then it shows like a smoky background. And it's like 400,000 likes. Huh? The fact that you're allowed to shows the potential. Like.

[Eric]

Right, Shows the potential. Exactly.

[Marty]

It's the, the restriction on it. It is the restriction because I see. You ever see that girl? Hey, I'm gonna eat these gummies. Check it out.

[Eric]

Natasha. Shout out to Natasha. I met her on the 420weekend in New York. She's cool as.

[Marty]

There it is. I've seen that girl. I saw her like a year ish ago. Yeah, she's doing the same exact formula because it's awesome.

[Eric]

It's working. Yeah, it's working. People love it.

[Marty]

Even like a year ago. That's fun. But it's weed, right? If you don't talk about Marty.

[Eric]

Yeah. She's starting a whole new like, like wave.

[Marty]

Her thing is she gets like a bunch of edibles.

[Eric]

She's killing it.

[Marty]

Watch me take 300 milligrams to go to a museum. And she does that in her model. Like a voiceover. She goes like that eats edibles. And then you see her walking and you see her like, this is the something. Blah, blah, blah. Voiceover. This that we ate. Drake tea. This.

[Eric]

It's like a normal vlog from the first person pov. But it's just the first five seconds just happened to be about an edible. And it's super dope. Dope. It's super dope. She's. She's.

[Marty]

The formula. Formula of it is that's okay. Yeah. It's we based. But it doesn't have to be like, watch this rip. Which I like. Which I think that's the only way I'm allowed to work at this point online on the terms of social media. Not YouTube. YouTube. I'll always go against the grade. It's just what it is.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

I'm gonna get high on YouTube.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Yeah, it. Check out this pack. But on Instagram, I think I have to go that route, Marty, because I used to do this before I met you. When I started Instagram, I would make fun of every trend. Every trend that happened, I would. The next two hours after it drop, I would have a video out about that trend. But the weed version and making fun of it. The number one comment was always, never fails. Fast as I would do it the day this happened, I need this. That this redo. Now that's where that Superman. I mean the, the Jesus joint. One camera from. Yeah, that was like pretty viral one for me back then. Right? That's when the guy came in with the beer. I saw it one day. I'm like, yo, that's pretty funny. That's exact. That's funny. But I would do all those trends.

[Eric]

That's still like the name of the game. I feel like, especially on Tik Tok on Instagram. Like it's. It's still. We see what's popping and you just do your exact same thing and.

[Marty]

No, not even that. Not. Not like a copy of it.

[Eric]

Oh, I know, but like you do like the Wii Read, like, rendition of it, obviously.

[Marty]

Oh, this fool's talking.

[Eric]

Right?

[Marty]

But like in a funny way of like, this is my me getting up as an influencer and I'm doing a bunch of horrible. If I was still doing it, that's what I would have been doing this whole time. Like.

[Thomas]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Or I would have redid her edible, like. Watch me smoke two balls of crack. Come through downtown. It's me hitting. You know what? I am gonna do that. Watch me hit this pookie and walk through. Just. Ah, just zombies around, dude. Yo, you know what? That. I'm filming that one this week. Watch me hit this pookie and go through. Go to the LA Zoo.

[Eric]

That's fire. That actually be a funny ass video.

[Marty]

Watch me do six hits of acid. We'll watch like in the Mario movie. It's just a guy screaming in the corner of the theater.

[Thomas]

Walk through that stretch of downtown LA by Twitter.

[Marty]

Yeah, again, like, exactly. But see, that's the show I used to do.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

I think it's fun and I think that's the way the Internet has to work again.

[Eric]

Right? And that's what it feels like it's going back to.

[Marty]

I feel like it's dead in the water. If you show a weed, it's dead.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. Which is. They know. They know now. Yeah. It's crazy because they know like even sometimes they'll even know about like the Puffco shape. They'll know about. They know about it all, dude. Not even just like the joints and bongs anymore. It's. They know.

[Marty]

So I think I won't say what video, but I did an Eric College style video where I was like, oh, streamer said I told Rock Mike aircon style. Like, you know, streamer setup.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Because that's your view. That's when I think of you. I think of you with a Flat top. And it's a screenshot from the video of you. That's when I found like you when I first got on YouTube.

[Eric]

Right, right.

[Marty]

This is a good setup and it's the same like a great as a formula works or yeah you walking doing your. It's just that's a YouTuber. That's like a YouTuber. That's not a show, it's personal. So I think the only way for it to work. Oh sorry. I did a video like that and I did a rip but I made the screen only catch the mic and I took like 10 steps back.

[Eric]

Classic.

[Marty]

I did not get restricted.

[Eric]

Yeah, you didn't get age restricted.

[Marty]

Hey, we'll say which one the out there going to knock it down.

[Eric]

But. But I feel like that happens a lot too. It's like after I mentioned it's like oh this video's doing good and then like oh, oh someone, someone reported that.

[Marty]

You know what's crazy? The day I dropped the papers my Instagram got reported and like 4 posts got taken down.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

And ever since then I haven't busted the 20,000 likes on the picture since is that moment.

[Eric]

That's weak that day. That's some.

[Marty]

And Rosie's page got like six.

[Eric]

Damn. Even her page the same day we

[Marty]

tried dropped the day the morning I woke up and went my Instagram's down. Of course it is. I went oh. I said no, take it down, take it out, take it out, take it like oh, recorded. At least the page is still there, man.

[Eric]

Right, right. I've heard yeah, I've heard some crazy like that or like we'll have haters that like pay to get our taken

[Marty]

down and it's like that's really right. Yeah, no that'll all come out too with that. You know about the lawsuit with the guy. Oh, that'll all come out soon. That's all going to be like in the next year we're going to know what the fuck going on. So that's the back burner for me. I don't even. It'll happen. I'm not even worried anymore. Like I just, I'll just. It's a countdown now. Yeah but I think like it's starting to happen to YouTube. I think people can go report, report, report on YouTube.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Low key because my will be unage. It's like not injury. Everything's good. Go. The second I press, I press public.

[Eric]

Oh right. Every. Yeah. Because the it passes the AI test and it's like wow.

[Marty]

Well the AI test at the back Background.

[Eric]

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

[Marty]

Before I post it.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

And it's not restricted.

[Eric]

Exactly.

[Marty]

I'll have it live. Am I getting reported or.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

Is it the AI thing? But AI just passed it.

[Eric]

That's what I'm saying. It's not the AI thing because I

[Marty]

think people just approved it. Who do you think who gots to gain from taking YouTubers? Like could you imagine right now, Eric, what your life would be like if you were monetized, dude. All right, there it goes there. And you never got crazy and your views were allowed to stay because holy moly. Allowed to be shown.

[Eric]

That would be crazy.

[Marty]

Could you imagine allowed to be shown on the homepage? Like we were at one point. There was a few times. You got the whole page.

[Eric]

Yeah, right.

[Marty]

It was a little bit. A few times I noticed when I went what the 800000 views in a day. This is insane.

[Eric]

It's a crazy time back in the day.

[Marty]

Oh man, it's so fun back then. Now it's like do you want to pay? And it says per thousand views you get this much like YouTube, you could pay.

[Eric]

Yeah. What is. You can do that on Tick tock too. I'm pretty sure you can do that on Instagram.

[Marty]

TikTok. It says what? And it says a price tag by it.

[Eric]

Yeah, and it's so specific. It's like buy the penny. And like it's like what the. I Wonder how much.

[Marty]

6.3 thousand views. What the. Well, it's 3.99.

[Eric]

Just like some. Yeah, just like. Who's watching it? Are they just putting it? Do you think they're puro brought like pure robots or they're just putting it in front of actual.

[Marty]

It's like an agency where it's like, oh, we employ 5,000 people. These 5,000 people have to log on to an account this many times a day.

[Eric]

This will be the first little swipe

[Marty]

or whatever, you know? Yeah, I think so. Cuz you ever go on certain, certain rappers Profiles, it's like 16,000 comments and 14,000 are five dudes putting parts. Purple heart clap, Emoji clap. Emoji clap. And you click it and it's a private account from an Indian dude with one post. I'm not wrong.

[Eric]

Maybe he's just a fan. Maybe he's just a big fan.

[Marty]

Oh man. Dude. And every single time times 600000 likes 16000 comments for the same guy. No. No shares. All right. Yeah, no share. It's like having a 3 million view YouTube channel video with 40 comments like, you know what a body themselves. So anyway, the Internet needs a restart. I think what I'm saying. Supreme Patty. I apologize.

[Eric]

Right now, start from Supreme Patty. Or even before that.

[Marty]

No, I think it's. Starts with Supreme Petty.

[Thomas]

Oh.

[Marty]

He was the first big person to get popular as off of Dumb Jackass. At least made it like, damn, that fool's getting hurt. Jackass is sick. There's a group. There's a gang of people. It's fun. Patty was putting lemons in his eyes.

[Eric]

Or like, same time, it was like, what? Boon Gang was his name. He would just stand on the table to, like, steal some. He would steal some.

[Marty]

Since when are you allowed to get famous? Breaking the law, dude.

[Eric]

Dude, that was a crazy.

[Marty]

At a point he should be chill.

[Eric]

He's like, redone himself. He's an artist now or something.

[Marty]

It's probably.

[Eric]

He's like a Christian guy. He's like a preacher.

[Marty]

I hope you do something good.

[Eric]

I'm sorry about what I've done in my life. It's like a big thing.

[Marty]

What you think a steal on the Internet. What do you mean? Like, I rob people and then record and post, bro. That's crazy, dude.

[Eric]

That was a crazy time. They had to change everything. That's up.

[Marty]

It truly did. It's up, yo.

[Eric]

Changing time.

[Marty]

How do you feel about every single cannabis event having a brawl?

[Eric]

Oh, I was just gonna add, dude. I was like, always. There's always something. Yeah. Yeah, it might be. Do you think because of social media, I think it's be like, talking online. I think people are like, bro, see me at the event

[Marty]

every time anyone's ever see me in person. Like, dude, dude.

[Eric]

Yeah. I'm like, what are you talking?

[Marty]

Like, I care about the conversation now, dude. I feel like to fight you, that's.

[Eric]

That's something that's definitely changed with the Internet is. I feel like everyone in this room grew up at a time where the Internet just was not serious. Like, it was like a very different thing than real life. It was like, I'm gonna just say whatever on the Internet or like, something's gonna be said to me on the Internet, and it's like, I'm gonna go outside, and it's like that doesn't even exist anymore. Like, yeah, it's over. It's done. But now I feel like if someone, like, gets DM'd, like, you're a. Like, you're like, I'm gonna find you. Like, someone just said. It's like someone just called Me a to my face. That's what people feel like. You know what I mean? And it's like, serious. Yeah, I don't think it's that serious. People just take it so much more. There's, like, no separation between real life and the Internet anymore because it's all one now. Like, it's really huge. People just live online, but I feel

[Marty]

like that's gonna die.

[Eric]

You think it's gonna change?

[Marty]

I feel like everybody's realized how crazy. Internet ready. The Internet is this, and then this is the world, the brown part. And like, if you just don't do this, you still have a lot of other to do.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, like, a lot. 100.

[Marty]

I think people are like, at the point of realizing that.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

Because the Internet is completely.

[Eric]

Boy, I feel like that's showing with, like, cancel culture dying down a little bit. Like, people aren't getting canceled as much

[Marty]

and it's because it's not that important.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. There's, like, a few things where you should be canceled for, like. Like, you know, like, there's a couple, like, bad things, but, like, if you're not a criminal or, like, hurting people, I don't think you should be cancelled. I don't know.

[Marty]

Yeah, I don't know. I think the theme of this whole thing is the Internet is really changes the world. The cancer culture thing is one right off the bat. You can't say you can't bring your phones into comedy shows because people might record it. That's a big thing, you know, like a big thing. Things are. Things are different. Oh, also, real quick, I did a show at the Haha Blah and they did not record it. I saw you, the fan. I can't remember your name, but you're from Hemet, California. I saw you record my whole set.

[Eric]

Like, damn.

[Marty]

Can you send that to me, please? Thank God you broke the rules because I need the set. I don't have it. I know you know who you are. I met you. Your girlfriend met at ufc. I think you said that one.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Please contact me. They talked to somebody who was with him in the crowd. I heard him. Oh, that's the fool I met. And I saw him record my. The whole set with his phone down here. But he's in the front row. I saw it, dude. I can see. I can see right in front of me.

[Eric]

I thought you meant he met his girl at ufc. And I was like, no, you like this. Oh.

[Marty]

He's like, oh, we've been at usc. Somebody asked, what'd you meet? So I'M trying to explain to him, like, you.

[Eric]

You're the one.

[Marty]

The one.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

California.

[Eric]

That's awesome. I was gonna say, you've ever been to UFC event. I feel like it's 90 dudes, 95 dudes.

[Marty]

Have you?

[Eric]

Yeah, it's pretty lit.

[Marty]

Would you find.

[Eric]

What'd you watch, dude? I've seen a couple of them. Yeah? Yeah. I've seen Adesanya fight in person a couple times. I've seen. I saw an Usman fight, like, versus Colby Covington when that thing was going on. That was hilarious. Let's see. I've seen some. I feel like I've seen a couple bangers. I can go into like my seat and scroll and I'm like, oh, I bought tickets to this. I forgot a couple cool UFC events. Oh, I saw Volkanovsky and Tuporia.

[Marty]

That sounds like food.

[Eric]

Tilapia.

[Marty]

Maybe I'm hot. We shout out BKFC Monday, May 22nd, here in LA. David Diaz is fighting. Guys, go check it out. Me, Marty, Rocco and Rosie will be there.

[Eric]

That is so sick.

[Marty]

We're gonna be right on the side of the ring. We got our tickets, we're ready to go. Let's go.

[Eric]

The bare knuckle. You know who does that? That was, what's his name? Bryce Hall. He was like a tick tocker and he like did some dances, but now he's like fighting.

[Marty]

I'll say this, I was there when he. When they did that guy jumped out of the ring and punched him in the face. Face.

[Eric]

Wow.

[Marty]

That's when I found out who Bryce hall was.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Who the he is.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Hey, that kid could actually fight. Hey, that fool actually fights. I thought he's just like a little looks Mexican kid.

[Eric]

That's what everyone. That's what everyone like makes.

[Marty]

That's. He's a bare knuckle fighter. I'll say that. Don't with him. I wouldn't. With that kid just like, hey, tick tock. That guy's gonna you up, dude.

[Eric]

Dude.

[Marty]

If bare knuckle fighters, it's not like they're registered heads, right?

[Eric]

Yeah, that's nuts.

[Marty]

Like, you know, boxers have to register their heads. And you know that.

[Eric]

I've heard that. Is that a real thing? Because I sometimes hear that the real.

[Marty]

And sometimes you have to register as like a lethal weapon.

[Eric]

Yeah, I've heard that.

[Marty]

Because you can't get the street fights as a boxer. You can lose your boxing license.

[Eric]

You can like, I think, go to jail for like a bigger serious charge

[Marty]

because you're a Trained professional. Let's see that one. White girl. Bless you. I think it was in the uk. Remember, she lost her boxing? She got banned for boxing.

[Eric]

Wow.

[Marty]

She beat the.

[Eric]

What does that really mean, though?

[Marty]

Like, there's a gym fight professionally anymore. Oh, all her fights will matter in

[Eric]

the world of the boxing league, in the real boxing.

[Marty]

Could you imagine being a badass? Go, I'm the fastest and nobody cares. Oh, that's another thing. The Internet's not a big deal because all these people used to shoot each other over comments. Think about this. Oh, when you shoot a over comments, the iPhone, like 40 is going to be out one day. You're gonna be in jail and we're gonna be out here.

[Eric]

Yep. Flying cars, having a good time with

[Marty]

the computer chip that makes you see good. And you're gonna be in jail. All right. Work with a robot guard that doesn't care if you're getting molested. He just doesn't give a. Like a wayo. Oh, yo, I saw you hot box Waymo.

[Eric]

That was classic.

[Marty]

Did you get in trouble?

[Eric]

No.

[Marty]

Wow.

[Eric]

Yeah, Not a single. I think it was too early or something. Okay. It might have been. It was like the first week or two that Waymo came to LA and I was like, I do not trust, dude. Nah. After I got into one that one time for that video and I was like, I don't think I'll ever get into one again. Until like, at least it's better, bro. It almost got into like three accidents. It was crazy. It was crazy.

[Marty]

I was like programmed by people. Like a person sits in it and corrects it.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. And they're like little kids in the Philippines, apparently. Apparently.

[Marty]

Well, I met one at the show recently. Oh, what do you do? He goes, I test. Waymos I drive Waymos I go. That was the funny I heard all night.

[Eric]

Oh, yeah?

[Marty]

What are you talking about? Because. Oh, you're serious. Like, test them big notes so they could drive like a.

[Eric]

Right. But you know, did you know that if you, like, get in a situation where it's stuck and you, like, need help, it's controlled by humans. Like someone gets on a remote and controls your car and gets it out of the situation. And they're not American.

[Marty]

American. So what you're saying is that's why they're bad drivers? That weibos are bad drivers because they're made by little Asian children in the Philippines don't know. That eight year old backing up, losing his mind and backing up. Oh, my God.

[Eric]

It's only if you click help, though. Because I assumed it was like. I was like. My conspiracy was like, bro, this is definitely a person the whole time. But it's not. It's a robot the whole time. Until you click help. And you're like, hey, I. I'm stuck. It doesn't get out of this. Like, what do I do? And it's the little.

[Marty]

Honestly, dude.

[Eric]

And then he gets on a little

[Marty]

remote, goes back to. I'll start over. Teslas, all the cars. Let's go back to driving cars. I'll take a taxi driver. I rather have a. A mean or meant guy drive me than a robot dude. Guy might offer me a sig.

[Eric]

A robo taxi. That's a new thing now.

[Marty]

Yeah, I'm good. No, like in Vegas, those buses.

[Eric]

Oh, and there's multiple.

[Marty]

You can fit multiple people in it.

[Eric]

Those look kind of lit up. You look at each other. That's good. That's good seat design. I like looking at people back there.

[Marty]

That's cool. But have you ever taken off on a plane backwards? Did you ever get that seat?

[Eric]

Oh, no, I've seen.

[Marty]

I've got that seat once.

[Eric]

No, I was. I got the one right in front where I was staring at the. The whole time. I was like, what the are you doing?

[Marty]

Where you're like, yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

[Eric]

I was like, why is this guy.

[Marty]

And I'm looking at the front row, bro.

[Eric]

No, I was the one right in front of him. He got the weird seat and I was like, staring.

[Marty]

Yeah, I was like, the. The feeling of taking off and doing this going forward. Different.

[Eric]

It's a landing. You were going.

[Marty]

It's. It's weird. Yeah. I don't get it. That is crazy. Do you ride trains often?

[Eric]

I've only written ridden a couple of trains in my life.

[Marty]

I used to ride. They're kind of California. They're weird.

[Eric]

They are the cool. I mean, I up. Because the first train I ever went on was in Japan. Was in Tokyo.

[Marty]

The first. The first food I ever ate was wagon buttery lobsters, dude.

[Eric]

So then. Yeah.

[Marty]

Was it the speech?

[Eric]

Yeah. Yeah. It's sick, dude. The craziest part. Yeah.

[Marty]

Yeah. The bullet train from the movie Bullet Train. It's a good movie, but for real.

[Eric]

Craziest part about. Yeah, the bullet trains are like the special trains. Like, the most trains that go within the city are obviously, like, amazing. They're all super clean and they're all super fast. The bullet train is like a whole other little level. Level. But I think everyone talks about the Bullet trains in Japan, they go like, I think 220 something miles an hour. The ones in China go 300 and no one. And they're like, they stop better and everything. And no one really talks about it, but they're up, China's up. Low key. You know, they do some crazy over there in those cities.

[Marty]

They made it all. They got it at cost, right? They didn't pay anybody. Like, you live, you're alive.

[Eric]

Oh, I forgot what city is. You can look up the YouTube video on it. It's so trivia. I want to go there one day. But it's, it's like a multi level city. Almost like you walk on the sidewalk and it's ground and cars drive around and then you look over the edge and it's like you're like 20 stories down. It's crazy. It's. I, I don't know. I want to say it's Shenzen. It might be.

[Marty]

That's the one I talked about, remember? That's like, remember the guy that was like, this is my life in Shenzhen, China. Oh, he paid with his hand and I was like, I'm out. Out of this video.

[Eric]

If you YouTube like multi level China City, you'll see it. It's kind of nuts.

[Marty]

I don't think I'm down.

[Eric]

Have you seen those trains that go through the buildings? Like,

[Marty]

how efficient.

[Eric]

I know, right? Why don't we have that? We got some dude.

[Marty]

We have fools from other countries doing the work for us and we're like, hey, you're not doing it right. As we complain about the. That we don't want to do. It's pretty crazy, actually. That is all right. So what, you smoked weed in Japan. You got away with it. It.

[Eric]

Oh, did get away with it. And I did indeed get away.

[Marty]

Did you bring it?

[Eric]

Indeed? No, thankfully. Thankfully. Had a little ship over. You know what I mean? Yes, yes. Little pack, little delivery package.

[Marty]

Wow. Importing to Japan is such a different thing for them. Like you're sending us,

[Eric]

right? They were really grateful for. Was nice. It was nice. It was way better than bringing in. I feel like there's certain, like TSA in the States doesn't care, but it's really when you land and I just don't care with that. You know, I'm not trying to be like Brittany Griner because I don't think we're not getting a war criminal for me, you know, I might be stuck for a while.

[Marty]

You'll be stuck for sure, dude.

[Eric]

Trying to think of like, who would

[Marty]

I even like, my next 10 years, I don't know, like, in jail, right?

[Eric]

In some place. I was like, yeah, there's some places where you just, like, never bring it. And I feel like Japan's one of those places, you know?

[Marty]

Is that worth it?

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

Anywhere. It's not legal. I'm not taking it.

[Eric]

Yeah. Yeah. Definitely not. The other most illegal place, I would say, would be Egypt, but I went with a homie. And then they had it arranged, we'll say.

[Marty]

You know, actually spoken by the pyramid.

[Eric]

Yeah. It was sick. It was sick. It was unbelievable, actually. That might be the craziest thing I've ever seen with my own two eyes. I think second is Niagara.

[Marty]

Did you touch it?

[Eric]

No. Did you touch the pyramid? Not unfortunately. Yeah. Oh. I don't think they're real. I don't know.

[Marty]

That's why I touched every. I had to make sure I touched a building.

[Eric]

I didn't know it's real, but I'm not real.

[Marty]

It's there.

[Eric]

I'm not too convinced that humans built it. That, you know.

[Marty]

Oh, no.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

No, watch. Ready? Ready? Me and you pick up his table. Oh, we can do it. How about a table 700,000 times heavier than this table? We just have, like, 100 dudes. Yeah.

[Eric]

It's like a couple people. And they. Really fast.

[Marty]

And their feet. When we drop it.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

Die every time we do. Yeah, Right. Where's all the blood?

[Eric]

It's definitely the stones. But the. Even the way it's arranged, like, they. It's literally impossible. Like, it was precisely north, north, east, south and west. But the compass wasn't invented for, like, another couple thousand years. Like, how does that even.

[Marty]

What's your. This is a high episode.

[Eric]

And it's by, like, the degree. It's, like, precise. Like, the most precise thing.

[Marty]

All the pyramids in the Gray Canyon.

[Eric]

Oh, what do you mean?

[Marty]

A little half sphinx. That. This is the great kid.

[Eric]

What? What do you mean? Is that real?

[Marty]

I saw the pictures of it. Look it up, Marty.

[Eric]

There's half things.

[Marty]

How do you. If you see the hieroglyph. Glyph. Hieroglyphics on the walls in the Grand Canyon.

[Eric]

No. I mean, that kind of makes sense because it's like history, you know? Like, it's all built on each other. Like, the layers of history and stuff, kind of. It's the same hieroglyphics. No.

[Marty]

As another country.

[Eric]

Is that real? I've never heard of that. That's actually.

[Marty]

I saw. I see a lot about it, actually. Incredible. I didn't Know you're not allowed to go to the Grand Canyon down there. Yeah, let's go down there. Maybe that's why they're like, yo, dog, there's stuff we haven't found yet. Would you stay out of here?

[Eric]

Dude, how grand is it? It's like pretty deep, right?

[Marty]

How grand is it?

[Eric]

It's like a mile deeper. What? How deep?

[Marty]

Look at the left part. Click it. The left picture.

[Eric]

That's not real, is it?

[Marty]

That's the great Cadia. See?

[Eric]

Blood Fairy. Ancient.

[Marty]

The top was Egypt. The middle was a great cad. It's like, like an old dilapidated version of that that has to say, build the Grand Canyon.

[Eric]

How deep is the Grand Canyon? Damn. I wonder. Oh.

[Marty]

Huh. Weird.

[Eric]

I mean, that's kind of cool. I've never seen that. That'd be cool.

[Marty]

There was pyramids in America too. No, but there's pyramids in America and there's pyramids. No, like actual pyramids that were. That were all destroyed. And like in the. The Amazon rainforest, there's pyramids covered in binds.

[Eric]

Oh, yeah, Mexico's got pyramids.

[Marty]

Why there's so many periods all over the world. That is kind of weird.

[Eric]

But the Egyptian ones are just next level. Like, what the. These don't make sense. Like the other ones. The other ones make sense.

[Marty]

The other ones are like the government's weird. What if we had some here? They're like, dog, get rid of. We took all of it. You see, Hellboy, I believe the government knows about some mythological creatures.

[Eric]

Nah. Yeah, no doubt there's some real crazy alien ufo. You hear about all these scientists that are dying in the UFO shits? Yeah, the one that was texting her co worker like some weird shit's happened to me. I'm getting death threats like I don't know what's gonna happen.

[Marty]

You see the one the lady's talking about? She's getting stalked.

[Eric]

Yeah, that was her. Yeah, that's her. Yeah, she said she's getting stalked in death threats to close.

[Marty]

Disclosed soon.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

What the. Honestly, dude, I think there's. In the middle of the Earth, there's no lava, there's no core. Just a bunch of other cities and aliens. Like, hey, get some more of these up. We need people to smooth this out. And when you get taken, you're just like, you're a slave now. Don't get eaten, because they will eat you.

[Eric]

You go down in the Earth's core. Holy.

[Marty]

And hell's always in the middle. Maybe hell's just because it's up down there. Wow. I Don't know.

[Eric]

Someone's been down there and back.

[Marty]

Do you think that Journey to the center of the Earth, there's no liquid magma. I don't believe Tallow. I don't know anything. By the way, guys, and I'm talking as her room is boxed. So scientists out there. You don't know anything. Know that, dude. That's why I said this. If I do science, I'd be like, yeah, there really is magma down there. We don't dig and fall into China. Like, you used to say, if you dig to the center of the earth all the way through, you'll be in China, the other side of the world. That's not true.

[Eric]

Just did a straight shot through.

[Marty]

Whoa.

[Eric]

Just popped out the other end.

[Marty]

That used to be the thing when I was a kid. Used to say it all the time. You dig through the center of the earth, you'll go right into China. That's not true, dude.

[Eric]

What if it was flat and you just fell off?

[Marty]

Or it just opens up a hole, you see? Oh, bunch of code.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

I'd go right back up.

[Eric]

Seal it up.

[Marty]

I'm not telling anybody. What if the elites are like, yeah, dude, we know what happens when you die. You go to another body. Well, it's another. You just get respawned. But you lose all your, like, oh, this whole life. I built my businesses.

[Eric]

It's a damn shame.

[Marty]

And we erase your memory.

[Eric]

Here's this pig trick, and you're born in, like, another country or something.

[Marty]

You're like, oh, that's always so hard. If you're a bad person, you end up in the dirtiest part of, like, in India or something. You responded to, baby. It's like, fool, you're gonna work a lot. You were a bad guy last time. Or, like, the worst parts of the country or the. I could imagine. Yeah, you're a piece of, like, fool. You live in a slaughterhouse. You're a bit pig. It was slaughterhouse. Oh, better do a good deed. You don't get a new body till you get a good knee.

[Eric]

Save a. Save a pig's life or something, dude. Sacrificing another life.

[Marty]

You never know.

[Eric]

What do you think the chillest animal would be? Would be reincarnated as. Like, if this life was super chill for you, what would you be rewarded as?

[Marty]

Hippo. Yeah. Because nobody's gonna with me.

[Eric]

Damn.

[Marty]

And everybody loves me at the same time.

[Eric]

Yeah, people do fuck with hippos.

[Marty]

Yeah, everybody loves hippos. Oh, they'll kill me. Like, yeah, we'll Kill you also. You want to see me swim fast.

[Eric]

We're like a rhino. Rhinos are cool. Rhinos.

[Marty]

Rhinos are cool, but cut their horns off.

[Eric]

You do get hunted, huh? You do get hunted. Yeah.

[Marty]

Who with? A hippo? An alligator. No.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

A big ass snake.

[Eric]

Me? A whale.

[Marty]

Yeah, but there's no whales where hippos are, is there?

[Eric]

No, I mean, like you could be a whale. That's another animal.

[Marty]

I don't want to be a wh.

[Eric]

Really?

[Marty]

I'm afraid of the water. I don't want to be that much water, dude. You know, I don't want to be that much water.

[Eric]

That'd be like your second home. You would already imagine that be like your home.

[Marty]

You're a whale afraid of open water. Like. Yeah, I'll be a hippo. I'll just be hippo. I just watch white families watch me on safaris. I'll be that hippo. Yeah, I'll eat the peyote on the land.

[Eric]

Every once in a while you'd attack once upon, huh? Every once in a while you'd kind of attack one, like for a joke.

[Marty]

Yeah, for sure. I. I just scare him. Watch this, watch this, watch this. And then you see the ears flap and then, you know, I'm nice.

[Eric]

Have you seen that clip or that little gif that people are posting on? Is it gif or gif, what do you say?

[Marty]

Honestly? I say gif. Yeah, I say gif even though we say jiff. Jiffy for peanut butter.

[Eric]

Yeah, that's different. That's a J though.

[Marty]

That's a J. I know, but it's if same. You know what? I say gif.

[Eric]

Yeah, I said gif too. But it's a little gif of a. It's a lion running at a safari and then someone pulls off its mask and it's a golden retriever. And it's the funniest little clip, bro. It is the funniest video.

[Marty]

It's the best little clip. The best two second clip.

[Eric]

It's literally just the smallest little gif and like just the little face the dog makes.

[Marty]

AI dogs dancing and. You ever see those realistic ass videos of dogs? Chill, dude. Dude, I hate it.

[Eric]

The saddest thing about those videos is that, you know, there's some grandma that loves it like on Facebook. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

My grandma where I'm like, that's. She thought that was real. That's the. My uncle Ron even said, look at this. I saw last night. Look at this bear. This lady ler kid. It's an obvious AI And a bear runs up and bites it. And the lady runs off screen like, uncle Ron, who's filming? You think the guy was like, oh, no, he just watches it. No, he runs away, man. America's Funniest Little Videos. It ends with every time because somebody has to help somebody. I don't know. Yes. The only AI I like is people making Arnold Schwarzenegger do that. He didn't really do.

[Eric]

What's up with Arnold?

[Marty]

What you ever. Can you. Can you put in Arnold Schwarzenegger singing Crossroads by. By Bone Thugs? Just. Just the beginning is exceptional, dude. And if you don't know what this is, you're welcome.

[Eric]

Have you heard the AI song remixes that are from, like, the 70s?

[Marty]

And we have one on here. Those are kind of chill showed. And it was. Those are kind of chill Silver. Sick. Oh, this is it, actually.

[Eric]

Loki sing sick.

[Marty]

You got to play it. It's the beginning. I can watch this. Any song. Any song. I'm down. The other day, it did Arnold Schwarzenegger replacing Kramer, replacing Michael Scott, and just did the real scenes, but it was him dressed as them as Kramer, all rocked out.

[Eric]

That's awesome.

[Marty]

Doing the same words, same everything, same cadence. Just with that voice. Arnold, I like AI for that.

[Eric]

He's looking Santa. Like, these days. You see him these days. He's got the white going on.

[Marty]

Yes. He looks like when your dog gets old, you know, it starts get, like, white. Starts limping a little bit, starts getting the white. You know what I'm talking about?

[Eric]

I know exactly what you're talking about.

[Marty]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Sometimes it gets dark on, like, certain dogs.

[Marty]

It's funny. Dogs always get the hober Simpson beard. Look, the circle thing, eventually. Dude, a dog getting old is weird.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Marty]

I don't know. I've never had a dog long enough. My mom always. Oh, we got to get rude. You up. So that was my mom. That's my mom. Wait, are you. Did you have a dog growing up?

[Thomas]

Yeah, I had a blind.

[Marty]

A blind dog.

[Thomas]

His eyes were completely whited over.

[Eric]

Hey, do you think Helen Keller was a real person? No.

[Marty]

No.

[Eric]

Yeah, I'm starting to lean that way.

[Marty]

My friend David Lucas has a great bit about it.

[Eric]

It's not.

[Marty]

It can't be real. You're telling me she can't see or hear or feel or nothing?

[Eric]

She can feel.

[Marty]

She can feel, but she's like.

[Eric]

She's got braille. She.

[Marty]

She.

[Eric]

They said she invented braille. Yeah. Like, literally. That's what I say about it. Even impossible. Like, how do you Even imagine that that's. How do you communicate? There's no way that that's.

[Marty]

I'm gonna roll joints. What do you know? What's.

[Eric]

We just put it in our hand and just.

[Marty]

She can't hear or see.

[Eric]

How do you tell her to inhale? Maybe you teach her what one is. Or I. And then.

[Marty]

But how would her brain know what it means? Do you see what I'm saying? If she can't hear. Ready?

[Eric]

Can't say.

[Thomas]

Ready?

[Marty]

Have a conversation with me. Could she make it out? Ready? Close your eyes.

[Eric]

Me.

[Marty]

That's it. I have. I can't do anything. Dude. Let's lead a conversation that way. But honestly, if she was real. What a down ass. For being that cool. That like, you can't even contribute and you're gonna go down to history crazy now.

[Eric]

She was a legend. She was a legend. 100.

[Marty]

I have no idea what she did. Besides. What? She wrote a book. Book. And she invented. I don't believe that. I believe.

[Eric]

Did she invent Braille?

[Marty]

That's pretty incredible.

[Eric]

That might be the greatest adventure.

[Marty]

There's no way.

[Eric]

Dude. We just credit the doctor that, like, translated that be like, what is she saying?

[Marty]

It's the same guy that did Scientology. It's the guy from Scientology. Like, I swear to God, dude. She's talking through me. Whoa.

[Eric]

It was just a complete fabrication. Like, trust me. This chick knows what's going on.

[Marty]

This knows.

[Eric]

She's just drooling in the corner.

[Marty]

Write this down. This is great.

[Thomas]

Somebody record this.

[Marty]

The same that did that. That did a. Scientology. I swear he's speaking through me. Did Helen Killer. He wrote the same. That's his part two.

[Eric]

Damn. I. Yeah, they got me. I believed it for a while.

[Marty]

There's no way.

[Eric]

Brave, brave woman.

[Marty]

There's no way. There's no way. It's.

[Eric]

Wait, can we look that up? Can we Google that? How was Helen Keller possible?

[Marty]

Possible? I bet you it pops up before he finishes the word possible.

[Eric]

How is it. How is she a thing?

[Marty]

I need to know. I need to know.

[Eric]

Maybe it was like partially blind. Maybe they overstated it.

[Marty]

Early language acquisition. Before her. Oh, I take it all back. I take it all back. I'm sorry. I appreciate. I. I'm sorry.

[Eric]

This makes sense now.

[Marty]

This makes a lot of sense. I appreciate you more. Helen Keller. I do believe what you said. I think that you're American hero. You should be wrote about and talked about for years. Yeah. Wait.

[Eric]

This all makes sense.

[Marty]

I feel bad.

[Eric]

I believe. I believe.

[Marty]

Dude, this.

[Thomas]

She was only 19 months old when she went deaf and blind.

[Marty]

This is a lying ass. I take it back. You lied. I hope. I hope was. I hope only you. Bad stuff happens to you and only you. Is that what it is? Only to you.

[Eric]

19 months.

[Marty]

She's a lion. There's no under two year old that I'm like, you're going to invent a

[Eric]

leg with you know what's going on? Like, do you remember. Hey, this is a crazy question for all you w. Do you remember your earliest memory? Your very, very first memory?

[Marty]

Yes, the earliest memory I have that I could physically go, oh, yeah, this is what we do.

[Eric]

Like, I'm conscious, I'm alive.

[Marty]

Yeah. I don't know how big I was, but a sink is this big, probably. And my great grandma died when I was like a year or a year and a half. And I remember she used to give me a bath inside of the sink. You know you just wash babies.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Marty]

I remember always looking up at the water hitting me in the chest, looking at the thing. And I remember her looking now, and she was always scrubbing me. And she was doing this with her hands. And like, now I know that's soap. She was doing this with her hands and bubbles on her hands and she would wash me. And I remember looking up and I remember always the water hit me in the face. Dude. It always hit me in the face. But I remember that one time. Damn. When I got older, I'm like, yeah, I must have been like three, right? Like, no, you idiot, that's not how big you were. You were like eight months old. Yeah, that's. I don't remember that. And then one time I remember it's dark and I go through and I open and there's a man in a white coat and he pulls me, talking about birth. Marty. But no, I don't. That's the earliest memory I have, too.

[Eric]

I think my earliest memory, it's had to have been around, like, maybe the same time. I remember drinking from a bottle, though. Like, I remember physically, like, holding the bottle and being like. I remember like, sibling, like a feeling. And I was like, yeah, I remember that. It's like when you stop that. Two years old, maybe three. I remember just like the feeling of the bottle in a weird way, because I thought it was something you're in

[Marty]

around dialogue, like, all right, I guess I'm just drinking a bottle. I feel like Norm McDonald would do a good job of, like, being a bit. I'm a baby. Well. Well, all right. Well, that's how I feel. Like I was as a baby. Like, well, it. I'm getting a bath. This water's warm. What the.

[Eric]

I think I remember when it wasn't. Like they fed me something that wasn't milk one time and I remember that. And I was like, that wasn't milk. That's my first thought. I was like activated.

[Marty]

I was like, what Apple lost one time and it just turned on.

[Eric]

I got conscious, like. Yeah, alive. It's like when you awaken in Halo,

[Marty]

you just like, see Halo. I never really. I don't like Wow. I don't like games where I can jump unrealistically. I can't follow that. And I'm always missing Call of Duty. I know how fast you are. I'm gonna snipe you different.

[Eric]

Valid.

[Marty]

What's your earliest memory?

[Thomas]

Man, I don't even know how old I was.

[Marty]

I just.

[Thomas]

I know we lived in hella apartments and I'm pretty sure I'm remembering one

[Marty]

from way the back.

[Thomas]

Like.

[Eric]

Nice.

[Marty]

What'd you see?

[Thomas]

I just know it was our apartment in Blackrock.

[Marty]

Like cabinets handles. I remember.

[Thomas]

I remember being out, like going for walks when I was little and seeing like burnt cars and like all abandoned.

[Marty]

Oh.

[Thomas]

Like the late 80s on the west side of Buffalo and shot.

[Eric]

Dude, I went to Buffalo the first time recently. Got some wings.

[Marty]

I don't know if you guys can see my angle, but your face was genuinely exciting. Were they good?

[Eric]

Of course.

[Marty]

Okay.

[Eric]

That's where they started.

[Marty]

Oh, I heard. Oh, I've heard, I've heard.

[Thomas]

Dude, what else did you do while you're there?

[Eric]

I literally I just passed through to go to Niagara Falls. So I stayed there for a night and just got Buffalo wings and beer and then went to Niagara.

[Marty]

Did you get a sandwich? What is it the fo. Did you. There's something called a pizza log.

[Eric]

Whoa. I did not get.

[Marty]

Oh, yeah.

[Thomas]

I didn't know that wasn't a thing on earth.

[Marty]

Yeah, dude, he told me what that is. It's like essentially think of a hoagie without cutting it. So like a hoagie shaped bread. Okay. It's just full of like stuff from the end.

[Thomas]

No, it's not hoagie shaped bread.

[Marty]

It's like like a calzone though.

[Thomas]

Oh yeah, but like, like the bread from.

[Marty]

From like Subway before they cut it.

[Eric]

Okay.

[Marty]

You know, they always cut. What kind?

[Eric]

It's long.

[Thomas]

It's like. It's like one of those things where it's like flat. It's like very flat, but it's not even bread squared. What's that I don't want to say like.

[Eric]

Like a panini.

[Marty]

No, I'm lost now.

[Thomas]

It's not even a whole lot.

[Marty]

Yeah, me neither.

[Eric]

We gotta pull it up. We gotta pull up a picture.

[Marty]

Let's see.

[Eric]

Never visualized. I need this. See this?

[Thomas]

Okay, so it's not really bread.

[Eric]

It's a mozzarella stick.

[Marty]

It's fried.

[Thomas]

Yeah, it's like a fried, but it's

[Marty]

got pepperoni and cheese straw.

[Eric]

It's like a mozzarella stick with a pepperoni inside. Look.

[Thomas]

Yeah, like an egg roll. Basically.

[Marty]

It's an egg roll.

[Eric]

It is an egg roll that's lit.

[Marty]

That's a pizza roll. You mean the things 11. But you don't talk about the bun.

[Eric]

Buffalo.

[Thomas]

Yeah, but they're husky, though. They're big. You

[Eric]

imagine this like a. You im. Imagine like a big.

[Marty]

Damn. A fried pizza roll. That's lit.

[Eric]

Aren't pizza rolls all fried?

[Marty]

No, they're usually just baked.

[Eric]

Oh. Oh, yeah, you're right.

[Marty]

This is fried. That sounds.

[Eric]

Whoa. That one's huge.

[Marty]

That's like a white person's chimichanga.

[Eric]

That one's a grip around the middle.

[Marty]

Life out of it.

[Eric]

Huge.

[Marty]

What an Marty's like all. That's my picture. That was good as a pizza log.

[Eric]

Yeah, that looks pretty good, right?

[Thomas]

Goes nice with some mozzarellas, marinara. I mean, or even some nice ranch.

[Eric]

I'm a ranch. Okay, wait, I think last time that was here. Did you stop being vegan?

[Marty]

Yes.

[Eric]

Yeah. You're still not vegan.

[Marty]

Cheese and eggs.

[Eric]

Now you're what?

[Marty]

Cheese and eggs.

[Eric]

Oh, nice. Nice, nice, nice.

[Marty]

I felt too sick, dude.

[Eric]

Interesting.

[Marty]

Yeah, I just. Being vegan is the worst thing I ever divorced. Choice I think I ever made. Whoa. It made me feel sicker. It made me gain weight because I wasn't eating clean like I should have.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

I'm just resourcing to like, oh, well, it's not meat, it's not cheese. I'll eat it. It even. It's like. Well, that's processed vegan pizza. So it's still.

[Eric]

Right.

[Marty]

Hella weight, dude. I gained like 85 pounds. Being vegan in 10 years. It's crazy.

[Eric]

The vegan way. Damn. You were vegan for 10 years.

[Marty]

Vegan for nine.

[Eric]

Holy moly.

[Marty]

Yeah, I'll be vegetarian for 10 years this year, I think.

[Eric]

Bovine or protein?

[Marty]

[Eric]

I bet you There's a lot of vitamins and in there too.

[Marty]

Yes, I've been taking that. Eggs, cheese. Feel better, dude, that's awesome. I felt sick as eggs, huh?

[Eric]

Eggs are good for you. They call that a superfood.

[Marty]

I just felt sick all the time, dude. No way. That's just not sustainable.

[Eric]

Throw some hits in that if you want it. Oh, yeah. Not sustainable, you say? I wonder if the vegan community would be mad at you for that. I mean, they go hard. They go hard. They're like, how dare you say that?

[Marty]

I mean, I'm not eating the way I see. It's like.

[Eric]

Like

[Marty]

I don't get mad at people for eating meat.

[Eric]

Right?

[Marty]

Like, why? And they don't get mad at me for eating vegetables. Why the would they be mad at me? Like, oh, well, you eat meat again, you like she going to battle the world. You want be mad at everybody because

[Thomas]

the vegetables were alive too, by the way.

[Marty]

Stop acting like they ever seen Sausage Fest. Sash.

[Eric]

Yeah, classic.

[Marty]

That's scary to think about. Like, damn, dude, that shit's scary. What if all these are alive life? We're just cutting these little baby carrots heads off.

No, the first was enough.

[Eric]

Yeah.

[Eric]

It was very. It was very visceral. Very, very graphic. It was a graphic movie.

[Marty]

Eight homies went. And I remember at the end, we're all looking down the aisle of the theater at each other. It was right at theater right downtown and we all watched it like way.

[Eric]

The ending.

[Marty]

This is insane.

[Eric]

The whole movie was insane.

[Marty]

The whole movie is safe. But.

[Eric]

But like that. Yeah. The ending especially was a little while.

[Marty]

You've seen Sausage Party?

[Thomas]

Like going to like a Michelin star restaurants and like doing the POV and like getting high before. Like be sick. That's what I'm saying. Like that's what I realized a few years ago. I realized just that watching content where I'm like, I've done that. I do. That's cooler than that.

[Marty]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't have to have a camera and a mic and a light.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. It's so casual. Like it's. It's cool. It's cool.

[Eric]

love, and we don't realize it's, like, in our backyard and it's right there.

[Marty]

All right, I'll just put a camera that I already own right here instead. It's so much stuff that we don't realize. It's kind like you said, like, it doesn't always have to be we.

[Eric]

100.

[Marty]

[Eric]

Hundred percent.

[Marty]

Another question. Are you guys still doing pod park podcasts?

[Eric]

We're doing the food show, mainly. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're like. We're probably doing the podcast again soon, but we're really just focusing on the food. I feel like the food's doing well for us and stuff, and it's a. It's more fun.

[Marty]

[Eric]

We like it.

[Marty]

Do you notice less age restriction?

[Eric]

Slightly, for sure.

[Marty]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Like, honestly, like, a significant. Like, probably 50. Better, like a hit rate. Like, every single. Like, it was probably, like 100 of our podcasts were getting age restricted.

[Marty]

Yeah. Isn't that crazy? 100.

[Eric]

Yeah, literally 100. Like, me, maybe 99. Because one would slip through the cracks

[Marty]

maybe if it did.

[Eric]

And then the food content is like 50, 60, which is still pretty ass. But it's a lot better. It's a lot better. For sure.

[Marty]

Better than Nothing.

[Eric]

Yeah, yeah. 100. So it's cool.
