[Ben]

Why did you stop being a vigilante? The line was crossed. Sometimes peace needs to be broken.

[Ryan]

Chaos must reign.

[Ken]

On March 4th, the nine episode event begins. I was raised to believe in grace.

[Spenny]

But I was also raised to believe in retribution.

[Ken]

Marvel Television's Daredevil Born again. Don't miss the two episode premiere March 4th only on Disney Plus.

[Mike]

Yeah. Before we even start this challenge, we're gonna do a challenge. The boys are already starting to work out. And so your photos, your. Your before and after photos, I mean, we got to get those taken soon.

[Ben]

Yeah, they're coming. They'll come this week here and we'll get like an official like measurement of like fat body mass, weight, you know, just all that stuff that you probably need because obviously we'll go off of like pictures, but having some probably a good idea as well.

[Ken]

I'm actually terrified we'll go to step on that scale or bring someone.

[Ben]

Really?

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ben]

How much could you weigh, Ryan? 175 pounds.

[Ryan]

Yeah. What are you worried about happening?

[Ken]

I mean, just it being set in stone with metrics that I'm fat or that I'm overweight.

[Ryan]

Ryan, you stepping on a scale is not going to change how we feel about Ryan.

[Ben]

I don't know if you're fat, you're just out of shape.

[Ken]

Overweight, out of shape.

[Ben]

You're just out of shape.

[Ken]

I know, but like, it's just that we have a lot of people that watch. Like, I'd be incredibly uncomfortable to take my shirt off right now.

[Ben]

So we're.

[Ryan]

Wouldn't you.

[Ben]

You're just like, Ben, over here is the milk bag over here. We got the milk bags in my left. That's how started it.

[Ryan]

No, it's funny. It's funny. I. I do agree, Ryan, it is funny, but just hearing you say that.

[Ben]

Yeah. So the premise here is we're gonna do. I don't know if it'll be 90 days. It probably will be since we're starting this soon, because, I mean, I'd imagine we'd want to probably finish around like end of May.

[Mike]

I'm cool with summer days because, like.

[Ben]

I give some time actually.

[Mike]

Yeah, I have some time.

[Ben]

But we're gonna film it and it'll be like a pretty long. I don't know if it'll be a full YouTube video or if it'll just be like a really strong long segment. You know, some people, like Evan, he thinks working out is Cheeto, as you would only imagine you'd expect that. So, like, I'm sure at the same time though, he can get a workout riding a dirt bike. So like, maybe he'll if he wants, you know, like, there's just multiple ways. And I think it'll be funny just bringing the camera along, showing each person doing some stuff, and especially, like, the evolution over time. So it'll be, like, a lot of footage, you know, compiled and then kind of condense down. Next week, I'll have someone come and like. Like an official person that knows what they're doing, you know, do all the measurements and all that. So we have our starting point. But then, like, what is our goal at the end here? Like, I've been going back and forth. I was looking. There is a, like, a bodybuilding, like, show competition at the end.

[Spenny]

Get all tanned up. You got to get like, that's.

[Ben]

That's.

[Ryan]

That's in June.

[Ben]

June 7th. But, like, that'd be kind of funny if, like, at the end, everyone had to, like, hop up on the stage.

[Ryan]

So you can either work out and get in shape and then go do the bodybuilding, or you can do nothing. Yeah, but you still have to get tanned up and do the body.

[Spenny]

And I'm only 10, but lubed as well. Yeah, yeah. It shows the definition of the muscles. You've done this before? No, but.

[Ryan]

No, but I've just gone to a couple.

[Ben]

It's like a public, you know, thing in Fargo. But I was like, dude, we could say we're going to be there. They'd probably freaking love it. The thing would be packed and there'd be actually guys that are jack that, like, bodybuilding our thing. And then we'd hop out on the stairs. I think that'd be funny.

[Ryan]

A couple of guys that'd be funny. They're going to be moderately in shape.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Definition.

[Ben]

And then maybe we'll have like, like a voting for, like, by the subscribers for who is. I don't think it really should be, like, who's the most jacked or in shape. I think it should be, like, who made the most progress or, like, the biggest transition.

[Mike]

The people's favorite. And then there's also the parameters that get measured that are just like, cold, hard truth.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Like, you get your fat, your body fat. You're this, you're that. That's all. Like, if there's improvements across the board and they're better than everyone else's, then you win. But there's also the people's favorite.

[Ben]

Yeah. I mean, kind of how it started. The idea for this bit was so Ben was going to start working out because he's been getting called a milk bag. As a milk bag. Yeah.

[Ken]

It's like the worst one.

[Ben]

You're pasty white.

[Mike]

Let me get this straight. Is this an actual comment or.

[Ken]

Yeah. Who called you a milk?

[Ryan]

Yeah, a lot.

[Ken]

Oh, on like just people online.

[Ryan]

This is a known thing on the Internet, Ryan, when you're actually out of shape and overweight and you wouldn't know anything about it.

[Ken]

Oh really? So I'm not tubby?

[Ryan]

I wouldn't know what I go through in the comments? Ryan, you're right.

[Ken]

I'm sorry for trying to appropriate your culture.

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah, the milkmaid culture.

[Mike]

Dude, that's awesome. I'm just like such a chill guy that I don't catch the heat. I just catch it from you guys.

[Spenny]

It's probably.

[Ben]

Yeah, you really don't catch any heat, Mike. Nor do you, Ryan.

[Mike]

Dude, the last comment I saw about Ryan's body was, holy, Ryan's getting jacked.

[Ken]

I know, I was kind of puffed up. I think I was adjusting in the picture and then it. I kind of looked like I was off.

[Ryan]

When was that? When was that?

[Mike]

This is like last Instagram.

[Ken]

I'm not gonna lie. I thought about that comment a lot when I was. Yeah, when I was in the gym this morning. I'm like that one kid freaking fired you. Andrew2 877 said I was looking jacked. I got to keep going for him.

[Ryan]

Yeah, keep going for him.

[Ben]

So that's the nice thing though about this segment. Whenever I'm trying to think of video ideas, if I can think of, of a video idea where there's going to be some kind of product still remaining physical product or, or benefit other than the views and, and I guess just the money to replace the damages. It's, it's a major win, you know, like, because generally the vehicle is worth nothing. We spent 40 grand.

[Tony]

Yeah.

[Ben]

And then you know, you got the views and like all that stuff. Or like you could even say like it's hard on our health. Like you're traveling across the country, you're eating really bad food, some people get injured because they crash. Whatever else. This, it's really all positive. It's going to be, you know, we're making a video and it's benefiting your health and well being and Ben's self.

[Ken]

Esteem will go up. You won't be a milk bag.

[Ben]

And it actually is really cheap. It's really affordable to do. You just get a gym membership.

[Ken]

So normally we have, we would be like testing our livers or something like that. We would just like see how much we could do bad for ourselves.

[Ben]

I'm pretty excited about this segment. I think it's gonna be good.

[Spenny]

And then after the segment, you should see who can run Evan's program.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Follow it up, dude.

[Spenny]

You do the retransformation and see who can get the biggest.

[Ben]

That'd probably be harder. Running. Running Evan's program would be much harder than going and working out, I think.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I agree. Yeah. Spenny was saying that the other night, and I was like, dude, I know that I couldn't do it. I know you definitely couldn't do it. But I am 100 certain Ryan could not run Evan's program. The way that Evan operates, the way that he consumes alcohol and then wakes up the next day and then does his job very well. We all get kind of hungover, but Ryan is like, about as useless I am, dude, as it gets when. When hungover.

[Ken]

Like, I didn't think it was that bad.

[Ryan]

Well, I mean, we were filming. We were filming the R6. Yeah, the R6. We were filming the Harley and R6 in Florida, the trials bike day. And we had, you know, gone out the night before and just like, I don't know, had a good time and he golfed. Yeah. Then. Then the next morning, you know, we. We go and start filming and Evan had hit it harder than anyone. And he's out riding and. And where's Ryan sleeping? In the truck.

[Ben]

In the truck.

[Ken]

To be fair, that was pre filming. I, I. All I did that whole day was just, man, the long lens, the mega lens, which is arguably one of the more useless cameras in the whole shoot. And you're farthest from everything. And I definitely did not have the energy to run back into the circle and make any comments. I just kind of hit on that.

[Spenny]

It was hot and humid out too. I was feeling it that day.

[Ryan]

It might have been because you were manhandling a thousand pound motorcycle short, but.

[Mike]

Yeah, you had your work cut out for you.

[Ryan]

That. But yeah, no, I think there's. I definitely tip my hat to Evan being able to run the program he does.

[Mike]

You'll honestly never know how hungover he really is. You just never know. It could be a 10 out of 10 or it could be a 1 out of 10.

[Ken]

You'll really never kind of looks the same.

[Ben]

I used to run a similar program though, for, like years. You just don't stop drinking.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ben]

You just keep. You just have another beer. Yeah.

[Mike]

The cold hard truth.

[Ben]

And then like, you kind of like, have a little bit more juice still too, like when you're filming because you're like, well, once we're done, I'll drink some more, you know, like, so you're kind of like excited to get through it and get back to it and I don't know. That's how it was for me at least.

[Mike]

Cold, hard.

[Ben]

But like nowadays, no, I for sure, like, it's just tough. But I was powering through. I was doing everything there. Run around.

[Ken]

Guess as I wasn't, I knew to that nap I could hear because I had the door open. I could just hear, oh, look at Ryan. He's napping. He's napping. What an idiot. We're waiting for like two hours for what was it? Gavin was working on the clutch or something and I'm like, well, I'm taking a nap now, dude. Get charged up.

[Spenny]

I wish you would have told me you're taking naps. I didn't know we were taking naps. I would have hit one too.

[Ken]

Do last thing on the workout plan. Do you guys have like a strategy? Like, I don't want to change my lifestyle that much, but I'd like to get in better shape.

[Ben]

You don't have to.

[Ryan]

You.

[Ben]

You can do whatever you want. I don't. I don't really have much of a strategy either. I'm just going to go to the gym.

[Ken]

So you're going to be gym. I feel like Evan is going to be solely bike. I feel like he's going to do whatever he can to not go in the gym and just ride bikes and like do random things.

[Mike]

Well, he got himself a pedal bike. That was actually kind of where this originally started. Like, you know what? Or yeah, like, oh, yeah, yeah.

[Ryan]

It was like he went and ordered.

[Mike]

It and so he got it right and it's. He set it up in his room and he's like, bro, it's pretty cheeto. Like, it just looked chintzy, right? And I'm like, well, how much was it? He's like, you know, like 140 bucks. I'm like, well, I don't even think.

[Ken]

A huffy for that.

[Ryan]

Ain't no chance at $140 workout bike is able to hold Evan up the way that he's gonna be running that thing.

[Spenny]

Cheapest one. It has like plastic pedals and they flex when you like stand up.

[Mike]

I tried it and it works, but I was like, he's like, dude, I just. I'm not trying to have like anyone walk by the room and see me on this.

[Ken]

Oh, it's in his room.

[Spenny]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mike]

It's very small, so that's.

[Ben]

We have a.

[Ryan]

We have a gym. I mean, we have a workout gym in here.

[Mike]

He can watch tv. That's the biggest difference is that I think he's playing.

[Ben]

I think the other thing, though, I think the other thing is he doesn't want to put his new stationary bike in the workout area because he put his treadmill in the workout area. And we saw what happened to that. It turned into, like, almost a food conveyor belt at one point. I believe Ken was at the end, like, catching, like, yogurt.

[Mike]

Evan said, he's like, I don't. I wouldn't want to be caught. Anyone walking by my room and seeing me on this bike, I feel like.

[Tony]

It'S weirder having him work out in his bedroom than if it was just in the gym.

[Ken]

So hot.

[Mike]

I just own it. I said, how? Okay, if this is a twelve hundred dollar stationary bike, would you then want people to see you? He's like, no. I'm like, then you just got to own it. Just get on.

[Ryan]

We should get it. We should get him some, like, biking tights.

[Mike]

Yes. I tried it. It works great for 140 bucks.

[Ben]

But here's the. Here's the bottom line, though. If all of us were to even get just a little bit healthier, a little bit more in shape, a little bit better, you know, diet, it's only going to help all of us. You know, it's like, like, there's not really much reason to, like, fight it or, like, go against it, you know, 100%.

[Mike]

Yeah. This is hard work and time.

[Ryan]

Kenjamino, are you hopping on this program?

[Tony]

Well, if we're doing the thing in June, I think I damn near have to.

[Ken]

Do you have a strategy, Ken? What's strat?

[Tony]

I gotta come up with something.

[Ben]

We can help you. I was thinking we could also even get like a personal trainer or something.

[Mike]

Even for just like one day.

[Ben]

Yeah. Or like, even, like you hit like two, three weeks to, like, kind of get the ball rolling so you know what you're doing and, like, how to do it.

[Tony]

So we've had that SNAP membership for six years now. I never got that on that plan, but then Mike did, and. Mike, have you ever used that key?

[Mike]

Just once, and I just donated it to Jake.

[Tony]

Okay.

[Mike]

Does that still exist? Yeah, yeah.

[Ryan]

My key still worked. I didn't use it in four years, and I got back in there. Yeah, still works.

[Ken]

Buildings and everything.

[Spenny]

Yeah.

[Ken]

You went to the old one? It's like a smoothie shop.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ken]

What the hell?

[Mike]

We should review our memberships. I guess maybe just mine. Maybe I'll need it now.

[Ben]

But I think I actually took you off Mike.

[Mike]

Okay, good, good.

[Ben]

Yeah, I took you off, like, a month ago because. Or like a couple months ago because Dalton wanted to get on it. And, like, we were maxed out. And I was like, how many times does Mike went. And they're like, one time back in 2019.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ben]

I was like, okay, well, he's probably good. Switch him for Dalton.

[Ryan]

Did you guys see the video of me almost hitting those wet bikes yesterday?

[Mike]

I watched in person.

[Ken]

What the heck was going on?

[Ryan]

I don't know. I just blacked out, dude.

[Mike]

I think it was because your first drift, you know, he's drifting around the farm driveway went so well. Like, you look like a pro.

[Spenny]

So sick.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it did. I just came out, and there was, like, Mike's Bronco over here, some wet bikes over here and other cars.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

A couple trucks there, and I kind of just threaded the needle, and they were like, do that again. Let's get it on video.

[Ben]

I was like, you should have done that.

[Ryan]

Honestly, something. Something in my head, too, was just like, you shouldn't do that. You should just keep driving and go home. I was like, all right, turn around. Just about piled up into our wet bikes that we were selling. Well, not really selling. The kid that we traded them for. What did we trade them for? Oh, the. The Harley Davidson. The Honda Davidson dirt bike. Kid gave us a Honda Davidson in trade for some money in the wet bikes, and he was picking them up today, and I almost piled into him in the process.

[Ken]

I kind of want to watch this because, Ben, you've been drifting a lot in your car.

[Ben]

You have the same look usually.

[Ryan]

It's pretty good.

[Ben]

You know what's funny, though, to me is you drive this car harder than any other vehicle you've ever had.

[Ryan]

Whoa, whoa. Look at spit.

[Ken]

Try to protect it.

[Ryan]

I appreciate that.

[Spenny]

If it was. If I, like, saw you slowing down and I was like, all right, I was gonna take the hit.

[Ryan]

Like, kind of push it.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

No, he was gonna jump in between them. He was gonna jump in between them.

[Ken]

He's not doing anything. He's just hugging the wet bike.

[Mike]

Well, I was like, but that would have worked.

[Spenny]

Worst case, it hit me and not the bike, and it wouldn't have dented off me.

[Ken]

Yeah, worst case, it would have hit you. That would have been worse.

[Spenny]

Well, no, that have been best case for the car, dude.

[Ryan]

Imagine, though, I. I'm sliding towards it and spending like. Like, hip checks my car, and it wasn't even close to hitting the wet bike, but now I got a massive, I got a massive dent in my door because yeah, it is funny the.

[Mike]

Different lengths you'll go to. Like you were essentially willing to put yourself between the wet bike.

[Spenny]

I was gonna, yeah.

[Mike]

If that was just like, I don't know, not a Lamborghini, you wouldn't do.

[Spenny]

No, I wouldn't have done that.

[Ken]

You wouldn't have done that for my Hummer?

[Spenny]

Well, for the Hummer, yeah. I mean if it was a nice car, but if it was like an F150 or something 98, then I wouldn't have done it. But if like a nice car like that, I definitely would have taken a little, a little bump for it.

[Ken]

Making an excuse to avoid the doctor is not hard. You can say you're too busy, it's too expensive, or maybe you think that it will heal on its own.

[Ben]

No, dude, he didn't drive the Subaru even close to as hard as this.

[Ryan]

Yeah, no. Yeah, there you go, bouncing that thing. Just. It's just.

[Ben]

It's kind of funny though because. And I can say this because I'm also a part of the. The. The mom car gang, technically. You know, this is like out of all the vehicles you would think like your previous car, you would have been driving the hardest, but you're just ripping this.

[Ryan]

Yeah. I don't know. I think it's the fact that you can just like really hoon it out on snow.

[Ken]

Yeah, I suppose snow does make it snow.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

I think it's my favorite car I've ever had.

[Ben]

Really?

[Ryan]

So fun. It's like driving my Huracan. But just I can just.

[Ken]

Bigger stuff.

[Ryan]

Bigger. I can fit stuff in it and honestly, I can drive it harder. I don't know why. It's just like maybe I care less about it. So I'm just like, just mobbing it as hard as possible at all times. Yeah, it's the winter beater.

[Mike]

I think of the. The few times that your hurricane was ever sliding sideways or you had tire spin. But now in the winter.

[Ken]

Yeah, it's way easier.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it's pretty much everywhere.

[Ken]

Burning a set of tires every time you do that.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I got a tune on it too. So it backfires like crazy and I just like constantly want to hear it. So it's just like.

[Ben]

Do a lot of people come up to you in it or.

[Ken]

No.

[Ben]

Does it kind of blend in?

[Ryan]

No.

[Ben]

So it just really. I think it does kind of blend in almost as a. There's another mid sized SUV type of rig.

[Spenny]

I mean, the white rims stand up.

[Mike]

But that's interesting. So many people come up to you in your huracan. But when we were out to eat the other night, I saw people in.

[Ryan]

The restaurant, like, oh, one kid, I guess I like walked into the gym and he was like, is that a Lamborghini Hurricane or a Urus? I was like. I kind of like laughed. I was like, yeah, it is. Because it was the first time anyone had ever said that. Yeah.

[Ken]

Like, finally somebody.

[Mike]

Yeah, you're.

[Ben]

The G Wagon is the most popular car I've ever driven. Everywhere you go, someone has something like is. I think just everyone knows what a G Wagon is.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Pretty distinct look.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Honestly, they're worth complimenting.

[Ken]

I saw one of those baby. Baby G wagons, like, not a G way. What's the G550? Holy smokes. Dude. It's literally. That was like the lamest baby car I've ever seen. No offense to those who drive it.

[Ben]

Pretty.

[Ken]

But, like, I looked at it.

[Mike]

Baby cars.

[Ken]

I. I don't even know like a comparison.

[Ben]

It's like, that's the ultimate mom car.

[Ken]

I don't want to. I don't want to use Jeep. No, it's.

[Tony]

I mean, like a range. Somebody sports you like a. Yeah, it's like the Rubicon.

[Ken]

It's like. Yeah, like a lifted Rubicon is CJ's car. And then like the one that the mailman drive around with the.

[Ryan]

Somebody who spent like 150 grand on a G550. It's. It's like just a little bit below the G63. But they're like, all right, I feel bad.

[Ken]

I feel bad. I'm sorry for that person who's driving it. Congrats on the new car. But it just. It. I saw it and I was like, damn.

[Ben]

They do look pretty much similar, though. Like, I think they're the same size.

[Ken]

Really?

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Tony]

Maybe just like, what is the 63 of, like, Fender flares, like brush guard, and a different grill.

[Ken]

Maybe this is one of those golf cart things. Golf carts.

[Ryan]

I was thinking about getting the. After CJ got his G Wagon, I was thinking about getting the G Wagon 4x4. Just to really just stance up on.

[Ben]

Him, get rid of mine.

[Ken]

Kind of bummed. I mean, like, I'm happy to be here with you guys, but we're missing cleat running in the Daytona 500 right now. Well, the. The ARCA series is.

[Spenny]

He.

[Ken]

He's running his first. His first race right now.

[Ryan]

I wonder what made him want to do that.

[Ken]

I don't know. I feel like that's got to be every race's dream. I think turning left, right, Daytona.

[Mike]

It's just an opportunity you can't say no to.

[Tony]

If you had the opportunity, would you say no?

[Ryan]

Yeah. I would not do that. Fuck no. I wouldn't embarrass you guys like that.

[Mike]

That's nice of you.

[Ken]

That is nice.

[Ryan]

Not a chance. I would hop out on that racetrack, dude.

[Ken]

So they. NASCAR did a special live in car camera for him, which they normally don't do, or they do it for, like, really big drivers. They have 52,000 people watching him race right now in the ARCA series on Saturday. Like I would say that this has got to be the most watched ARCA series race yet.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ken]

And I mean 52,000 people watching his in car. It's pretty sick actually.

[Ryan]

That's crazy.

[Mike]

It is good for Cletus. Hope he does well. There was. We basically were just watching it before we came up here and there was a 15 car crash. He wasn't in it luckily.

[Ken]

Dude, that's the thing about nascar. You just like can do the whole thing and then you just get in a wreck.

[Mike]

I would get so frustrated. I know anyone who watches NASCAR knows that stuff happens. But like, dude, it could just like it can mess your whole season up. Some guy hitting the wall and then some guy like Ben 7 other guys and then hitting you and you spinning out in the grass. That could mess your whole season up.

[Ryan]

Yeah, maybe I would be all right out there because they would just be like, just stay away from the number seven car. You'd be like, yeah, I'd be up here. He's all over the place. What is he doing? That's got to be some kind of strategy that he's running right now. I'm in there, I'm like looking for my phone, like grabbing a water bottle.

[Ken]

Running the fidget spinner.

[Ben]

Yeah. He's driving like he's got nothing to lose.

[Ryan]

They got to be working some kind of like back end deal with Cletus because he. They should like if not even close to bringing the kind of viewership for the series that he's running of that many eyeballs like you'd think that they would be.

[Ken]

Should be stoked on.

[Ben]

You got 30000 people watching his live in car cam on YouTube live right now. 30, 000 people.

[Ryan]

That's a lot you already know. He's just hell yeah, brother.

[Ben]

He's not talking. We were watching a little bit before giving commentate. He could. I'm sure if he talked. But it'd probably be tough. It's so loud.

[Tony]

Gotta be alive.

[Spenny]

You're probably so lucky.

[Ben]

Yeah, it is crazy because like you see the outside shot and they're like, you know, cruising. Obviously they're ripping, but it doesn't look as fast. And then it cuts to the in car and you're like holy crap, they are so tight. And just like they're going.

[Ken]

Yeah, they're actually driving 180 miles an hour wide.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Look how big he is in that thing.

[Ken]

They build him a special car.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it's just got like a little bubble on the top.

[Ben]

Imagine yeah, like a giraffe.

[Ken]

Like just his eyes are over the top. No, that's pretty sick.

[Ryan]

Talladega Nights is still my favorite movie to date. After watching NAS going to the NASCAR race, I can appreciate it just that much more.

[Spenny]

It's a classic. I've probably seen it over a hundred times.

[Ben]

Really?

[Ken]

Dude, it's 100.

[Spenny]

I can almost word for word say the whole movie.

[Ken]

All right, what's the first line?

[Spenny]

He's driving in the car and he's. And she's giving birth to Ricky Bobby.

[Ken]

Yep.

[Spenny]

And he's like, hold on back there or something. I can't remember what he says. But like, as it's going, as it's playing, I can say it.

[Ken]

You can do it with the background music.

[Spenny]

With the background music.

[Ken]

Yeah. Just like Saving Me by Nickelback.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Mike]

You can't just rip the Talladega Knights dialogue like no straw, just sober.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

You guys know what I've been watching lately is the Outdoor Boys YouTube channel. Mostly just seeing tick tock clips of it, but that guy. Have you guys seen.

[Mike]

No.

[Ryan]

He's like, clips of him.

[Ken]

I've heard, I've seen clips. I've never watched a full.

[Mike]

Absolute gold mine, dude. Yeah. Like he just posts a video of him doing what he does. No. No flash at all. And just millions and millions of views.

[Ryan]

Yeah, he's crushing it. No doubt about that. But I mean, dude, you got to tip your hat to what he's doing. Like, it is so gnarly. Like he's just going out into the backcountry of Alaskan wilderness when it's 40 below out and just making up. Just making a snow cave and sleeping in it. And I mean, we've done that. But imagine doing it solo.

[Ken]

No.

[Ryan]

In the middle of Alaska. And like all the rest of the gnarly elements that come into factor where we had it pretty easy. And think about how much it sucked.

[Mike]

For us every time again too. It's not just like, I'm going to do an ice cave. It's going to be a big deal. He just does it over and over and over.

[Spenny]

Yeah, I've done similar in the summer. Like hiked up mountains and dropped back down in Canada in like grizzly territory. And you shit your pants at sleeping. Like, dude, every little crack you hear like, I didn't sleep, I went. And I did not sleep through the whole night. I was the whole dude. I was.

[Ben]

So when was this?

[Mike]

Crazy.

[Spenny]

September or October, probably.

[Mike]

And so what you have your backpack.

[Spenny]

So basically, yeah.

[Mike]

You have just a Shitload of pairs of pants.

[Spenny]

No. Basically all you have is underwear. Yeah, underwear. Extra underwear.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Spenny]

You have a backpack and, like, a little packable tent. A little foamy, A pillow that's, like, this big. And you blow it up so it looks like a sheet of paper, and it blows up to, like, this big. And then a small sleeping bag that's, like, also that big. Put it all in a backpack, a little camping stove, and then, like, some water. So maybe like, a gallon of water. And then. Yeah, you just have, like, dehydrated food, and you just hike up a mountain, drop down the backside, throw the tent up, and camp out for the night. But it was scary, though. Like, you could. The wind was blowing insane and the trees were scratching on each other, and, like, every little scratch, I was like. Like, I'd wake up. I kept like. Like, I'd hear a noise and be like. My heart would be racing, and I was like, oh, God. Because, like, you don't know it's outside the tent, too, and you're just in the middle of nowhere. Zero cell service. So, like, even if something happened, like, zero cell service, it was.

[Ben]

So it's just you and your girl then, or.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Spenny]

Yeah, just me and my girlfriend. And just.

[Ryan]

Did she know that you were bugging?

[Spenny]

Yeah, she was bugging, too. I. I started falling asleep.

[Ken]

You weren't the rock that she needed.

[Spenny]

No. And, like, we were both in single sleeping bags, so we weren't touching. So we were just both laying there, like, on the ground, like, this is so awesome.

[Mike]

Right?

[Spenny]

But, yeah, it was scary. And then even when we were falling asleep, I started falling asleep, and I went like. And I, like, heard that noise, and I was like, yeah. Oh. Like, I woke up, I was like, oh, my God.

[Ben]

You were really scared.

[Spenny]

You were scared. I scared myself. Like, just a little snore.

[Ben]

Did you see any bears then or.

[Spenny]

No, no, but, like, there is. That is a heavily grizzly area. Like, and then walking, there was a light dusting of snow in the morning, so walking around the tent, you could see, like, deer tracks where the deer went. And I went and, like, walked around to see if there was, like, any. There was no, like, bear tracks or cougars or anything, but, like, could have been. And you're supposed to cook away from the tent. And I did, like, you get, like, meat on your fingers and stuff. And then you get in the tent and, like, you have to put the backpack up in the trees, but, like, the bears could still smell you because you still have a scent no matter what. Yeah, but it was scary, though. Sleeping in the middle of nowhere. Zero lights, no service was so sketch.

[Ryan]

Did you have bear spray?

[Spenny]

We had bear spray. No gun, though.

[Ken]

No gun?

[Spenny]

No guns. No knife.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Because you can't.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ken]

How do you do that in Canada?

[Spenny]

Just bear spray. So, like, you do have protection, but kind of not really. Like, bear spray is only gonna do so much. So much.

[Tony]

You gotta be so close to for that bear spray to be effective.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Tony]

That's not even worth doing. Just run at that point.

[Ben]

You can't have guns in Canada.

[Spenny]

You can have them, but like a pistol, you have to send an email to the government and tell them that you're gonna be traveling with it. And it needs to be under the seat in a lockbox with the clip and ammo and another lockbox. And you can only, like, bring it into certain ranges and stuff. It's just like, tight regulations on it.

[Ryan]

Honestly, that surprised me with, like, how backcountry.

[Tony]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Is that in the Northern Territories? Is it still like that or is they just kind of do what they want?

[Spenny]

Yeah. I mean, up there, I don't even think they have police up there. So it's probably different, I guess. So far north, is it pretty lawless up there? I think so, yeah. I mean, I've never been the farthest.

[Mike]

You'Ve ever been north in Canada.

[Spenny]

I've been to, like, Fort McMurray, which is seven hours from Calgary, where I live. It's usually like minus 40 all winter long. It's like the tundra. It's like a frozen tundra up there.

[Ryan]

About the outdoor boys is just up there, just snow cave. Right now.

[Spenny]

There's like a baby to do. Like, there's literally nothing to do because it's so cold.

[Mike]

Yeah. There's always somewhere. Like, we say we're in the barren tundra here. Like, you know, it's bad. Yeah. Up there, there's actually nothing to do.

[Spenny]

It's like the closest gas station is like five hours from you.

[Ryan]

What?

[Spenny]

Yeah, dude.

[Ken]

Doing milling your own oil out there.

[Spenny]

Yeah, Living the. Living the Canadian dream.

[Mike]

Working at the fishery.

[Ken]

Did you get a good Instagram picture, though, out there?

[Spenny]

Dude, we got so many. We got some crazy content. We were like, cooking steaks on rocks and stuff. Just pulling a rock out of, like, the river and throwing it by the fire and laying a steak on it and just letting it cook.

[Ryan]

Dude, that's so fun.

[Spenny]

I love doing that stuff.

[Ryan]

Last time that me and Spenny and. And Greta and his girlfriend were hanging out, Benny and his girlfriend were Just like, just selling. Greta on coming up to Canada and doing this.

[Spenny]

Go back country camping.

[Ryan]

We got to go back country camping. Greta's like, oh, my God, that sounds so fun. Because, like, she's like, showing her the views and stuff. And I'm like, I. I don't think that you would enjoy doing that.

[Spenny]

It's honestly pretty easy. Like, it seems hard. It's like, it's really chill.

[Ken]

Other than the not sleeping because of the bears.

[Spenny]

Well, I mean, if the wrong. You just.

[Ryan]

Yeah, as soon as it gets dark, spinning until we're spending until it. They're like, like hiding timid like.

[Ben]

Yo, you guys good? Yeah, yeah, we're fine.

[Spenny]

Yeah.

[Ken]

But he's got a little stick hiding.

[Spenny]

Under retrieve with a little stick because.

[Ben]

He can't have a gun sharpened stick.

[Spenny]

Yeah, I'm sharp.

[Ryan]

Yeah, he's got like the. The eye mask.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Underneath his eyes there.

[Spenny]

Sharpening sticks. What, are you guys not preparing your weapon for the night?

[Ryan]

Ken, how was the golf tournament last week?

[Tony]

Dude, it was so good. Like, Ryan flew down there with a bunch of other guys from the area, and it was. It was pretty wild. Like, typically golf tournaments are like, pretty, like, oh, you got to be quiet and all that.

[Ryan]

And it just seemed like waste management.

[Tony]

People are, like, throwing stuff on the course.

[Ryan]

Were you guys watching golf or was it just like an excuse to just drink in public somewhere?

[Ken]

I think I saw a golf ball. Yeah, I think I saw. I think I saw them, like, walk by when they're playing golf.

[Tony]

We followed our boy Mav McNeil around for a little bit.

[Ryan]

It's almost his name, but really, he must not have been watching that closely.

[Ken]

You know, golf is actually a really hard sport to watch. Not because it's boring, but because one thing happens in front of you.

[Tony]

It is one that's way easier to watch on TV because you just like, bop around from hole to hole. In this one, it's like you have to walk for.

[Ben]

Unbelievable.

[Ryan]

I can see where that wouldn't be enjoyable.

[Ken]

Yeah, and like, not every hole has a bar on it. So, like, it's really tough. You gotta plan your route.

[Tony]

We did, like, kind of hang out at one. One bar that had like three different holes all surrounding. It was great.

[Ryan]

Yeah, the 17th hole.

[Tony]

No, it was like the 12, 12, 13 and 6.

[Mike]

They should host a golf tournament where all the spectators can drive carts.

[Ben]

Oh, that'd be pretty funny.

[Spenny]

Tailgate.

[Ryan]

Holy crap.

[Ben]

You need some good insurance for that.

[Mike]

As big as waste management, but let's think of like when 300 people pull up to the hole to watch how.

[Ken]

Many people there that couldn't walk.

[Ryan]

How many injuries you guys did you guys see people that were just. Oh yeah, just hammered.

[Ken]

Yeah, I mean people in our group, dude.

[Tony]

Yeah, dude, Friday wasn't bad, but Saturday people were like legit. Just passed out on the grass.

[Ken]

Yeah. Because grass is kind of comfy. Like you can lay on grass. So you saw a lot of fallen soldiers. They just lay down, the sun would be on. They get their hand like this too and just boom, they're out, out. And security people are just stepping over them.

[Ryan]

Yeah, this.

[Ben]

Yeah, I sweep them up.

[Mike]

I was seeing like reels of, of like they're just on an incline hill. They're chilling there and they just video people just eating shit all day.

[Ken]

That was last year with the rain. Yeah, the rain was bad.

[Mike]

Apparently this year this year it was. It was really funny.

[Spenny]

How was. How was Nickelback?

[Ken]

Dude, Nickelback was lit.

[Spenny]

I'm so jealous.

[Ken]

It wasn't as good as the concert we put on in Key West.

[Spenny]

Yeah, that's true. We did put a sick concert on. Zero fans watching, but it was still lit.

[Mike]

The video you got legitimately looked like a. Like a low quality music video. Like a legit.

[Ken]

Yeah, you like that?

[Mike]

Yeah, it was great.

[Ken]

But we actually. Do we have to go to waste management next year. We have to. It was the most fun event I've been to since nascar, but it's like nascar but. But even better.

[Ben]

Really?

[Ken]

Yeah. You're in Arizona. It's sunny out. There's golf. Like, a golf course is like a. A fancy place to be, Right? Everybody there is nice, and there's good drinks and good food. You just walk around the golf course. You can watch a high class sport if you want to. You leave, there's concerts. The whole town is buzzing with energy.

[Tony]

The 16th hole there is absolutely electric.

[Ken]

Yeah, no, that was pretty sick, too. You walk in, you get chills.

[Tony]

Like a personal birdie a hole, and they'll just get booed, and it's hilarious.

[Ken]

Not. Not a birdie. If they hit a. If they hit a bogey or miss a putt, everybody will just boo. And if they do something cool, they'll cheer and it's.

[Ryan]

Anyone get a hole in one?

[Ken]

Yeah, somebody did. We weren't there.

[Tony]

I think two people did that weekend.

[Ken]

Yeah, just one last year. But everybody throws all their stuff out on the course and they just sweep it up, apparently.

[Ryan]

Dude, that's so sick. Actually, yeah, no, I would. I would like to go do it because I actually like golf.

[Ken]

Yeah, that's why I think you would. Have fun. Yeah, we'll do the drinking. Golf.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that's what I think is funny. Just picturing you guys, like, at a golf tournament doing anything but just drinking.

[Tony]

I did golf one day down there, so it was.

[Ken]

How'd that go?

[Ryan]

I saw the video of that terribly.

[Tony]

But I had a great time.

[Mike]

The video Ken ripped on his story had me in tears.

[Ryan]

Ken was golfing with our buddy Jeff. And Jeff, I was following through Jeff's story, his Snapchat, and I just laugh because it started out with, like, all right, we're going golfing today. And Ken's in the background. And then the next snap is Ken, like, like, hung up on a curb. Yeah. And he's, like, going back and forth, and Jeff is like, what are you doing?

[Ben]

Yeah, Ken was.

[Ken]

How to Go.

[Ryan]

And Ken is. Ken is stuck on the golf cart, and Jeff is like, dude, we're at a nice golf course. You can't be doing this, Ken. And I was like, what do you expect? Bringing 10 to a go? He's never gone golfing. That doesn't include us just destroying golf carts. Like, that's all he knows. That's all he knows. So I was so happy to see that. That's fine.

[Tony]

I shot way too many shots.

[Ryan]

But you did more damage to the golf course playing golf than what you were doing in a Golf.

[Tony]

Yeah, 100%. I did leave a few divots, but.

[Spenny]

How are the carts down there, though?

[Tony]

Oh, they were great. They were a little slow, but the cart girls were fine.

[Ken]

How much did you spend to golf?

[Tony]

It was like 300 with greens fees, rental cart and clubs.

[Spenny]

That's not too bad.

[Ben]

And then how much you. You pay the cart girl?

[Tony]

I think we did a lot of damage.

[Ryan]

Did you. Was she just following you guys?

[Ben]

Yeah, she just started going with them. Yeah.

[Spenny]

The cart girls towing Ken off the. Off the rocks, hooking up a toaster. Would you give me a toe?

[Ben]

She's got the drinks and the toe strap.

[Mike]

That'd actually be hilarious. Just have a hitch on the cowgirls.

[Spenny]

Like.

[Mike]

Yeah, I just served till, you know.

[Ben]

Imagine she actually had like a. Like an actual tow truck thing out of the water.

[Ryan]

It's like. Yeah, it's going underneath the back wheels, looks like.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Why do you have that? Oh, let's just say I burned my drinks.

[Tony]

She was like a local girl.

[Ryan]

Was she a cart girl at the more I Country club? Because when we went to the More high country club, I think that girl. That was the cart girl that day that we played with grandpa Ron. I think she like, that paid for her college tuition that year.

[Tony]

Sounds about right.

[Ryan]

Ken just kept over here.

[Ken]

Birdie juice, please.

[Ryan]

I think we did like, 45 fireball shots.

[Tony]

I think our tab that day was close to a thousand.

[Ben]

We kept putting it on Ken's card.

[Ken]

Yeah, thanks for that, Ken.

[Ryan]

That was fun. Yeah, I'm down to go next year. It just seemed like a. Pretty much just like a bender.

[Ken]

Yeah, no, it was.

[Tony]

It was.

[Ken]

And I think you could do it differently. I think we would do it. I mean, like, we maximize. That weekend. It was literally waste management. A concert, another concert, and then a bar at night. And then you wake up at 8am and go back to the court.

[Tony]

I think next year I would probably spend the money to get like a box or something. And then not Quite so much nightlife stuff.

[Ryan]

I like it. Ken.

[Ken]

That's awesome. Let me know which box you get will come along.

[Ryan]

Ken is about the finer experiences. You know, he's, he's, he's okay once being down with everyone, but the next time he comes back, you bet your ass he's gonna be in a box.

[Ken]

So people always are asking us, you know, how long we're gonna do YouTube. And we now have developed a good answer over, you know, all the years. But have you guys seen the retirement house Tick Tock? But so like, old.

[Mike]

Yes.

[Ryan]

What?

[Ken]

Yes, yes.

[Mike]

It's a content house. Yeah. For old people way. It's a great idea. Mostly because they're the first ones to do it. Now someone else came along and did it. Okay.

[Ben]

Seems like a man.

[Ryan]

How old are they?

[Ken]

They're pretty old.

[Tony]

I think they're like seven eighties.

[Ben]

They got. How do you know about this? You're on TikTok.

[Tony]

They didn't add for the.

[Mike]

Just like old. Look at him go in and like assisted living.

[Ken]

This is kind of a bad video. Let's go.

[Spenny]

Dude.

[Ryan]

This is a great idea because.

[Mike]

And they just.

[Ryan]

I'm sure, I'm sure they can just have like a live in nurse kind of just like a retirement home. And then they can make a little bit of cheddar.

[Mike]

They're traveling.

[Tony]

They got the one nurse who's like directing them.

[Ken]

Yeah, that's what I mean, dude. They're living.

[Spenny]

They're hitting PJs.

[Ken]

Let's do.

[Ryan]

Holy crap. Big 6.2.

[Ken]

Yeah, no, they're pulling views, dude.

[Spenny]

Likes 2.3 million.

[Ken]

And they're living in this like classic millennial house.

[Spenny]

It's like a modern. It's pretty funny modern house.

[Ken]

But could you imagine, like if you're a kid in college and then like someone goes, oh, I'm going over to Granny's for, you know, Thanksgiving. And then you have to pipe up and go, yeah, my granny doesn't cook for me. She's taking a PJ to the Mykonos with her Tick Tocker friends.

[Mike]

Yeah. I wonder what, like the pay breakdown on this looks like. Honestly, don't even need to worry about it. Just enjoy it. But it's a great idea. And like I said, because they were the first to do it, like, I think this could be successful beyond this and other people could do it, but.

[Ken]

It'S pretty freaking funny.

[Mike]

Crazy views.

[Ken]

Yeah. I mean, honestly, 1.5. So, yeah, there's unlimited possibilities.

[Ben]

I wonder if it's actually legit or if it's Just like a. More of a joke.

[Ryan]

Yeah, like they just like if they.

[Ben]

Actually live there or if they're just like.

[Mike]

It started off as a joke.

[Ben]

Joke.

[Ken]

Somebody was like, that's got to be fake. And like, they do. Like, that guy kind of looks fake, but then you see a video of them and like, oh, like, no, that's gotta be real.

[Mike]

Oh, I did see comments like.

[Ken]

Like, that guy looks a little fake. Old.

[Mike]

I feel like that. Yeah, but like, real.

[Ben]

Like, imagine if you're just a producer and you're in California, which it looks like, and you just cast a bunch of old people that are enthusiastic, and you're like, all right, you show up here today. We're going to shoot this and that and the other.

[Ryan]

And imagine being them right now and listening to this podcast and being like, they. They think we're fake. They don't actually think that we're 85 years.

[Ken]

Why would anyone want to make this.

[Ben]

That guy looks fake with the mustache.

[Ken]

This guy.

[Mike]

That's the one that everyone comments about that they think is fake.

[Ryan]

Yeah, he's the industry plant.

[Ken]

I don't know.

[Spenny]

That one does. Look, just wait.

[Mike]

Maybe it's just one fake one and the rest are real.

[Spenny]

The one. Yeah.

[Ken]

So regardless, good for them.

[Mike]

So seriously, that's Ryan, really? Are you hitting us with a proposal after this? Yeah, I think do this when we're. When we're 80.

[Ken]

What. What's like the retirement boys?

[Mike]

Retirement boys?

[Ryan]

TV semen.

[Ken]

I met the Montana boys, actually. The fellow Montana boy.

[Ryan]

Yeah. You texted us, you said, I met the fellow Montana boys. And I. And I said, are you a Montana boy now?

[Ken]

And honestly, I don't know. I might have just talked to one of their friends who just said they were. But, like, I recognized one of the main guys and they were at the table next to us. So. What? I walked up and I said, hey, are you one of the Montana boys? He said, yeah. And I said, I am one of the sea boys. I go, we're fellow boys. Things are name. And we laughed and went, yeah, you know, it's funny. We didn't. We didn't think it would be that big when we would put boys in our name, you know?

[Ben]

Did he know you were.

[Ken]

I don't. He didn't really say. I honestly wasn't that confident, which I think I'm.

[Mike]

I regret.

[Spenny]

They're just like dudes that walk around like, they, like, lip sync lyrics with their dance and.

[Ken]

Are they the.

[Spenny]

Yeah, they're tick tockers and they like.

[Ben]

Pretty standard tick Tock.

[Mike]

I. Yeah. And I was thinking they're just like, Jack genre. Like.

[Spenny]

No, they're just like. They wear cowboy hats and they just get all lubed up and throw a football to each other.

[Ben]

Like, Dalton could be a part of that.

[Spenny]

Dalton could be a Montana boy.

[Tony]

Okay, so they just do thirst traps then?

[Ken]

Yeah, but it works. I think they date, like, famous hot chicks.

[Ryan]

Now, if I'm trying to meet anyone with boys in their name, it's the outdoor boys, which I don't understand because it's just one guy.

[Ben]

He used to do it with his kids.

[Ken]

With his kids. He. I just saw a tik tok about him teaching his kid and, like, his.

[Spenny]

Kid did wrong thing.

[Ken]

He was a good parent.

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Ben]

And they grew up. Don't want to hang with dad anymore.

[Ryan]

No. I think they're rolling, rocking solos. No.

[Ben]

Oh, really?

[Ken]

Oh, really? They got their own.

[Ryan]

Yeah. So anyway, yeah, I'm sure the Montana boys are.

[Ken]

Are cool, but they had plenty of other people who wanted to talk to him that were not me.

[Ben]

Really. They're popping like that mainly.

[Ken]

Mainly, yeah. They are kind of popping like that. They had a table with a guy from Love island, but I think it was mainly the chicks. They had a ton. Just a ton of chicks.

[Spenny]

Dude, they're big on TikTok. I'd say, like, where I'm from, everybody knows who they are.

[Ryan]

Does your girlfriend know who they are?

[Spenny]

Probably wouldn't be a problem if she did.

[Mike]

Spenny and Dalton stayed in Florida for, like, four more days to. For Supercross. When we all went home and you guys were hanging with Hayden, I mean.

[Spenny]

Just rolling with a guy like, Deegan's pretty sweet. It's just a legend.

[Ben]

What'd you guys do?

[Spenny]

We just hung out at the town dinner, you know, just chilled. Kept it pretty chill.

[Ben]

Is there Supercross tonight, then? Since it's Saturday, Yeah.

[Spenny]

Yeah.

[Ben]

And Hayden's racing.

[Spenny]

No. So it's Hayden's west coast and tonight's east coast. Detroit. But it's snowing right now. But it's an indoor arena, so they.

[Ken]

Got eastern west coast.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

To do with anything that.

[Spenny]

I don't know.

[Ryan]

Is that a problem?

[Spenny]

Well, it's just crazy. Like, they're racing dirt bikes and it's snowing out like a bit of a wild thing, you know?

[Ken]

Didn't that happen at X Games? All the guys had to, like, push their bikes in and motor boots through the snow.

[Ryan]

It was at Minneapolis.

[Spenny]

Minneapolis, Same thing. Same thing as Minneapolis. It's snowing and all, like, their photos of them riding into the arena. They're like, oh. Like oh. Kitted up in jackets and stuff. It's like just a full white out, which is kind of crazy.

[Ken]

I guess we're kind of used to it. You are. But like probably a lot of those guys come from frickin.

[Spenny]

Yeah, they're all Florida, California, like Texas. I mean place like not a full on blizzard whiteout.

[Ben]

So Hayden doesn't race in that.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Can you at end or. Because it seemed like there were some guys that race in both.

[Mike]

I was confused by that.

[Spenny]

So two. So the 450 class races east and west and then the 250 class is split into two divisions because there's like more people. Well, there's more people, but it's kind of like a younger. A younger age limit. So being like a younger rider, it's expensive to travel across the US to race. So they make it. You can either pick and race 10 races on the East coast or 10 races on the west coast and then you save like 30, 40 grand traveling back and forth from east coast to west coast because the races do flip together eventually. And then they. And then the final comes together and you have the top two, 10 from the East coast and the top 10 from the west coast and they meet in Salt Lake and there's a championship for both. And then whoever wins that final race is technically like the fastest in the.

[Ben]

U.S. you know, I'm such a fair weather supercross guy. I'm like new to it this year just because I honestly, I just like watching for Hayden Deegan.

[Spenny]

Well, so last year Hayden didn't win the championship but he won the final round. So technically he was the fastest rider.

[Ben]

Right.

[Ken]

But he didn't win like in points.

[Spenny]

He didn't win in points but he won the final race. So he beat all the east coast guys and beat all the west coast guys and kind of showed that like he's like the man to be for this year. So then this year when they announced him being on the west coast, the fast kid that was on the west coast switched to the east coast so he didn't have to race against Hayden.

[Ben]

Really?

[Spenny]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Ben]

Pretty smart.

[Mike]

And now he's racing Colton Davies.

[Spenny]

So yeah, Cole Davies, teammate, which is he's like 17. He's like the new kid, kind of fast. Super fast. He's probably like the next guy I'd say that's coming up.

[Mike]

So then how does outdoors work? Do they do the same thing?

[Spenny]

I don't think it is the same outdoors. I think it's just like a full one series. No, east and west. Just one full series and travels east and west. But supercross is different because it's in a confined time space. It's like 18 or 19 weekends in a row.

[Ben]

Yeah, that's nuts. So, like, the 450 guys are going 18 weekends in a row.

[Spenny]

18 weekends in a row. And racing in Detroit. I think it's Detroit this weekend, and then it's west coast next weekend, and then back to the east coast and it, like. And then Daytona beach and then, like, back to Salt Lake, and just. It's all back and forth. So a lot of flying and stuff and plus, like, training in the middle of the week and travel time, and so I don't know.

[Ben]

So when do you think Hayden's gonna move up to 450s?

[Spenny]

I think next year.

[Ben]

Really? Yeah, I think that soon.

[Spenny]

I mean, he's. He. He's like, killing it in the outdoors and then hopefully get the championship and supercross this year and then move up. Move up the next year to 450.

[Ben]

How much bigger is the jump from 250 to 452?

[Spenny]

It's a lot. Like, the bikes are just insane. And just the riders, too.

[Ben]

Like, double the horsepower.

[Spenny]

Horsepower. Like, the training, and the more horsepower, the more tired the bike gets you. So if you're getting tired on a. On a 250, the 450 is going to, like, really gonna whip you around. Like, me, I'm a little guy, so me being on a 450, like, I would get worked. I don't think I could ride a 450 for a full moto. Just really, it's too much for me. I'm just too little. I'm not strong enough, honestly. You need to be strong, dude. All the 450 riders, their legs are huge, and they're, like, kind of. It's kind of changing now. They used to be, like, smaller dudes, and now it's just everybody's, like, kind of beefing up. Pretty jacked. Yeah. You look at, like, Sexton's legs. Like, dude, his legs are tree trunks. Even Jet, too. Jet has, like, big.

[Ben]

So are they hitting, like, the same line as the 250 guys, or since they got a more horsepower bike, are they able to, like.

[Spenny]

They do pretty similar lines, but they will hit, like, technical or lines. Sometimes they'll do, like, a triple out of an inside or something instead of doing, like, an outside. Like a 250.

[Ben]

Just because they have that, Just because they got the power to make it.

[Spenny]

Honestly, it's just carrying speed all around too. Like hitting the. Whoops. They're through there. Way faster. Like, I don't know, just everything about the 450 is way faster. They're heavier. A little bit heavier. So that, like, plays in the factor too. You're throwing around an extra, like, what, 20 pounds? So that'll tire you up. I mean, they're just gnarly. 450s are gnarly bikes. They're fun to ride, but they're super. They're. They are big.

[Ben]

To actually ride it to, it's like max.

[Spenny]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Capability. Yeah.

[Ryan]

We watched supercross the other day at dinner and Spenny was like, giving us just a play by play of, like, what was going down. It was the first time that I'd watched and, like, actually understood, like, what was happening. Like, the techniques that they were doing and, like, why they were doing certain lines.

[Spenny]

Like hitting a quad one lap and then tripling.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Spenny]

Next lap.

[Ryan]

Like, I thought they were just. Maybe just doing it. But you were explaining, like, the reasons why. Yeah. Made watching it, like, a lot more interesting, honestly.

[Spenny]

Yeah. I'm stuck. Yeah. We'll have to throw it up on the TV tonight and. And watch it. I'm.

[Ben]

Yeah, for sure.

[Spenny]

I'm excited for it.

[Ryan]

Be fun.

[Spenny]

It is fun. Like, trying to, like, teach you guys too, because it, for me, being a racer, I get what's going on. So I'm like. To show you guys and then when you guys understand, you're like, oh, that's what they're doing. It's like, it's cool to see you guys, to be able to see that, like, when I point something out.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Spenny]

It's just awesome.

[Ryan]

I'm glad that you're enjoying it too, Spenny. I didn't know you were getting that kind of enjoyment out of it, but that's nice to know.

[Spenny]

Yeah. I'm getting something out of it. It's not just for fun.

[Ken]

One kind of last thing here. Did you guys see Jake's video where he definitely kind of blamed me for the truck?

[Ryan]

I was actually gonna ask you about that, Ryan.

[Ben]

Sorry about that. What's the scoop?

[Mike]

Well, what did he say? Give me and the viewers. I gotta watch it. Sorry, I.

[Ken]

Basically, the whole video is just. I think it's even titled Ryan's Fault.

[Ben]

Really?

[Ken]

Yeah. And then he goes on in that video talking about how he's blown up, like eight different trucks, but then somehow the one truck that I borrowed of his, now it's my fault. Like, are all the other Trucks.

[Ryan]

So did you get an invoice or.

[Ken]

No, he has not invoiced me. Did you get it? Did he send it to you? I don't know. Why? Just. I didn't know if he was sending it to the company or me personally.

[Tony]

I mean, you were the one driving it. I'd imagine you would get the invoice.

[Ken]

Well, I just kind of figured I was towing all your guys's stuff, right? You know, like, I wasn't, you know, I wasn't driving the mini truck.

[Ryan]

I didn't tell you to hot rod that thing.

[Ken]

Well, it seems like debate.

[Ben]

Seems like you were just misdriving it.

[Ken]

Ryan, I don't think it's possible.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I don't know, man. It's like, there's peace and cormorant, obviously, me, you know, the crew and Jake went through what we went through, and then, you know, for the last couple years it's been pretty chill and like, Ryan totally just fired it back up and now it's just bad again.

[Mike]

There's this giant cloud.

[Spenny]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Which is sixteen thousand dollar bill in it.

[Ryan]

Yeah. It's just like, Right. Just pay it so we can just be boys again.

[Tony]

That's just between Jake and Ryan. I think everyone else, we're all good.

[Ryan]

I thought, well, yeah, like at the end of the day, like, Jake thinks that we were for some reason responsible for it too, which I keep telling him, like, dude, I. I didn't even know that Ryan was driving your truck.

[Mike]

Maybe we should like.

[Ben]

Well, did you hear about how big the bill is? They're like over 20 grand. And. And I mean, Tony was like, well, that ruined our February. And like, I guess like, they had like, his kid wanted to, like, join some sports and shit. He's like, well, you're gonna have to wait till next year because Ryan blew up the truck and drop out of hockey.

[Mike]

All right, let's hit an ad.

[Ben]

Like, the kid was crying and.

[Ken]

Just kidding. He wasn't crying, but I mean, you know, like.

[Spenny]

Yeah, yeah, like Ryan ruining guys ruined his childhood.

[Mike]

But then. Yeah. Did you see Tony's like, Instagram story just yesterday? Dude, he's like, Jake brought me this truck back. Is the maroon Raptor. He. I gave it to him when it was running fine and he brought it back. And when he started up, boy.

[Spenny]

Oh, I was just knocking.

[Ryan]

So we'll do this. That make you think, like, maybe Ryan was riding it or what?

[Mike]

No, then he just. And I'm. I'm on the same side as him. He just goes, you know, maybe Jake is the problem because I've personally seen him blow up so many cars and trucks.

[Ken]

Thank you, Mike.

[Ben]

It is pretty crazy though. Like if you're just driving a vehicle down the road, there's no reason for it to have so many problems. Which makes you wonder like are you just flat out driving the thing fucking wrong? Like by just like shifting things and when you're not supposed to and like, like you literally would have to do something.

[Tony]

I mean you've seen both Ryan and Jake drive things.

[Ryan]

What about Mike, you're blown up car now?

[Mike]

Yeah, that just has like a few failed rings and like a little bit, a few chips on highly modified 20 year old Subaru that's not melted down. Like it's. It's like chilling.

[Ryan]

So Mike had a Subaru in the shop for the last, what year? It was in there for nine months pretty much.

[Mike]

I drove it for the summer and then it was winter and the fuel pump went out and. And it just started again.

[Ryan]

So.

[Mike]

Okay, fuel pumps out. We should probably. These injectors are pretty crusty. These fuel rails this and that. Let's get rid of the tick. While we're at it. Let's pull the motor because it's easier to do the heads. Oh yeah, I found the tick. It was on one of the valves. But your piston has a little slap notches here. These rings are failed and I'm like.

[Tony]

Well geez, wasn't that motor like new in that car two years ago?

[Ken]

No, that's the only thing that's.

[Mike]

Yeah, it was like the only that you haven't done.

[Ken]

It wasn't.

[Ben]

It was a different block.

[Mike]

It is a built motor but yeah, it's not even a closed deck.

[Ben]

So how much money now are you gonna have into your Subaru after this? Like are you. Are you nearing the 100 grand range?

[Mike]

No, not quite. But it depends on how crazy I go.

[Ben]

That's insane, dude.

[Ryan]

Well, how crazy are you going?

[Mike]

I don't know.

[Ryan]

Like what are you thinking? Like what's the options?

[Mike]

I was trying to get someone to like sponsor not even like give me a free motor but like Iag block is probably the way to, way to go. But just like. Yeah, just someone who wants to put a sick motor in a sick car.

[Ben]

You'll probably have at least 12 to 15, I bet. I'll say. Really? I think it depends how big you go. But like you're gonna have to put the new motor in. You're gonna have to retune it. There's gonna be all the labor like I'm imagining you'll do, you know, the full get up a whole block. You know, complete block now.

[Mike]

Well, that. That's.

[Ben]

Now you're gonna want to do pistons, new rods, all that, like, just do it all at once.

[Mike]

And then there's the long block. Like, I just boug cams, valves, and springs. So I don't technically need the long block because I already have the head stuff. But should I just do the long block and send all that stuff back?

[Tony]

Dude, your money might just go full out. Just do everything.

[Mike]

But I'm also not trying to build, like, a 900 horsepower.

[Ryan]

Oh, that's what I think you should.

[Ken]

Like, that's the thing.

[Spenny]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Have you cut any corners to this point?

[Mike]

No, but, like, exactly.

[Ken]

Why cut corners now?

[Mike]

600 horsepower? Plenty.

[Ryan]

No, I would just make it ridiculous.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Tony]

Just money mic it. Just go full out.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

So you're looking like six grand for a short block and about ten for a long maybe.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ken]

You said your motor is, like, kind of okay, though.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Can we put that in Jake's truck?

[Ryan]

Oh, we could.

[Mike]

It's actually all it needs is hopefully.

[Ben]

Subaru piece of Subaru motor.

[Ryan]

What if. What if they put Gavin's old Cummins motor, the 12 valve, into your Subaru? I would mean that we got that just laying around.

[Mike]

I'll try myself to sleep.

[Ken]

Really?

[Ryan]

You'd be cool rolling cool when it.

[Ben]

Was blowing up, you know, smoking.

[Mike]

I would, like, if we really wanted to do that, I would just buy a Subaru rolling chassis and do that.

[Ryan]

Maybe you do that.

[Ken]

Then you got the plan figured out.

[Mike]

If all I had to do is buy a rolling chassis and then I got the Cummins motor and installed for free, I would totally do it.

[Ken]

Yeah. I mean, I think Tony owes us so much money. It's all blurry now. You might as well just pile it.

[Ryan]

It's blurry. Who. Who owes who or what?

[Ken]

Yeah, no, I think Tony. I think Tony owes us. So.

[Ben]

Poor Tony. Dude, the guy's just eating the cost on. On Jake and now Ryan and hopefully me soon. Yeah. So, Mike, what? Like, when do you draw the line on this Subaru?

[Mike]

I don't know. Clearly, like, the line right now is getting more blurred than it ever was just talking to you guys.

[Ben]

I mean, I'd say you blew past the line a while ago.

[Ken]

That's what I'm saying. You blew past the line like when you blew the transmission racing, Ken. Like, that's when the line was crossed.

[Ben]

When do you draw the line? When do you personally draw the Line. Do you think you'll ever. Or are you so far past it now that you're like, there's no way that I can abandon this project.

[Mike]

Or like, because like, there's no as far as abandonment that that word doesn't exist with that car. It just doesn't.

[Ben]

And like, selling it really wouldn't make sense either. That's damn near abandoning it.

[Mike]

That would be abandoning it.

[Ken]

Are you switching to like, no plastic water bottles, no straws, like electric cars, you know, solar panels? Like, are you trying to save the planet? Because I swear, if the planet doesn't last long enough for like your 5th generation grandkids to have that car, it wouldn't be worth it, dude.

[Mike]

Like, no, honestly.

[Ken]

Well, Mike comes on.

[Ryan]

As soon as Mike passes that thing down and he dies, they're selling that shit, dude, along with everything.

[Ben]

Or if they're even gonna want a Subaru.

[Mike]

Pretty horseshit job of raising them if they don't.

[Ben]

Like Subarus.

[Mike]

Yeah, I like imagine like gas cars being outlawed and I would be one of my fathers. Yes. Irobot style. This runs on gasoline.

[Ben]

Wonder where you get the gas.

[Mike]

Yeah, right. You'd have to like make it your. There's going to be people like, moonshining gas.

[Ben]

Moonshine. E85. I guess that comes from corn. You probably make E85, you don't even need gasoline. You just want you E85 anyway. It's true.

[Ken]

Be pretty sick if you want mad scientist just to make some gas for your bright yellow Subaru. The world's full of Teslas. Just all these black and white jelly beans, the occasional marine.

[Ben]

I wonder if you should just do the full interior at this point too.

[Mike]

Well then I. Yeah, someone commented that and like, you're already so far into some love. I'm like, jeez, I thought you already did.

[Ken]

I thought you did that.

[Mike]

Just got the STI seats. No, that actually, that Subaru that we had the bug eye, I was gonna pull the blue floor out of. This is not your fault. You're like, I got a guy coming to look at it, but he's not picking it up till Monday. I'm like, sick. I'm pulling that blue carpet out of there. And then I like came out and he's like, yeah, you just took it, dude. I just like shampooed the rear seat in my car and so much came out of it. It was so satisfying. Pretty pointless information there, but.

[Spenny]

Is it here?

[Mike]

It reminded me of old days. No, it's in Fargo.

[Ken]

Oh, shoot.

[Mike]

I'll bring it.

[Ryan]

It's really handy on the Subaru. You did that?

[Mike]

Yeah. And the seats were just gross. Like, I was just sucking, like, brown water out of them.

[Ben]

So that's 25 years of backseat fun.

[Mike]

Yeah. Yuck. Yeah. I'll do the interior. I'll just keep going on it.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Might as well. Why stop now?

[Mike]

Yeah, I really. I'm not building a drag car. I just want, like, 600 horse.

[Ken]

Just an autocross car.

[Mike]

Yeah. Yeah, some.

[Ryan]

I mean, that'll still be fast. That'll still be really fast.

[Mike]

That's really fast. But, yeah, to your point, Ryan, the line started when I blew the transmission racing Ken's Tesla. And that feels like light years ago.

[Ryan]

Was a long time ago.

[Ben]

2020.

[Mike]

Yeah. Like, that feels like so long ago.

[Ken]

I guess each year you get, like, you can move the line a little more forward.

[Ryan]

Yeah. It's so crazy to think, like, just the two different ends of the spectrum that we have between Ken's vehicle of choice and, like, how he's, like, evolved as a car owner and how you have evolved as a car owner of just dumping more money into that. And Ken is just like, ooh, new electric vehicles out. Yeah. New appliance that I can drive.

[Mike]

At some point, we were really all on the same page, but, like, Ken was driving a wrx, red wrx, then a blue Focus rs.

[Ryan]

Dude, the Focus rs, Ken. Seems like, I don't even remember that.

[Tony]

I regret selling that car. I wish I kept it, really. I know in the time, I just, like, wasn't happy about it because of the whole, like, lemon thing. And then looking back respectively now it's like, I should have just kept that because it was a fun little car to whip around in.

[Ben]

I cannot imagine you nowadays driving around. It'd be like jelly bean.

[Tony]

It'd be like you and your evo. It's in storage. You drive it, like, twice a year. But it's still just fun to have.

[Ryan]

Are those things supposed to be worth money or something?

[Ken]

Yeah. You sold them at the bottom.

[Tony]

I sold that at the worst possible time. And then that was, like, the bottom of the value. And now it's climbing back up about. They sell for about what I bought it for. New.

[Ben]

Really?

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ken]

That's pretty crazy.

[Tony]

They didn't import that many of those.

[Ryan]

Huh. It was a cool car.

[Ken]

I think I'm gonna lemon out my Hummer.

[Ryan]

Yeah, you keep saying that, right? Quite a bit of words that were.

[Ken]

Yeah, well, that's what I'm confused, because Ken. Ken did it. But Ken's good at working the System.

[Tony]

It wasn't that hard. There we go.

[Ken]

That's all I wanted to hear.

[Tony]

Granted, I had mechanical issues, so, like, that was a very cut and dry. They could not like push back on that. Whereas yours is more electrical and it.

[Ken]

Might be a little car's electric.

[Tony]

Yeah. But no, it's. It's not like. It's not like a powertrain issue. It's like ancillary electronics.

[Ken]

Yeah, I see. I think what I'm going to really play on is that it's unsafe to drive because when you're driving and the cruise control randomly stops and you're using one pedal driving it effectively locks up the brakes on the highway. And I know how to deal with it again. Yeah. Full regen mode. But Alondra drives the car and so, like, what happens if she does it? She doesn't know what's happening. And then all of a sudden she's locking up the brakes on i94 in rush hour traffic. She could begin in a serious accident.

[Tony]

It's more so I would. I would push at a. You have convenience and safety features that this vehicle. You sell this vehicle as, like. Because it says, like, service OnStar system.

[Ken]

Yeah, bro, I can't sell it with all that shit going wrong.

[Tony]

And you try and have somebody test drive that and it's just got all these warning messages pop up. You can't.

[Ryan]

They couldn't just. Have you tried getting them?

[Ken]

Four times.

[Ryan]

Oh, really?

[Ken]

Tried four times. I have my appointment for the fifth. The best part is, is there's only one guy who works on EVs in the local area and he's booked out for a month. So, like, each time I have a problem, I got to wait a month.

[Mike]

What do you do? You limit it out. You get a new one. You.

[Tony]

You send a certified letter to the manufacturer and then dealer contacts you with.

[Ken]

Like, all the buyback paperwork for legal reasons. I love my Hummer, which I actually do. And I would keep it. I wouldn't just sell it right after I get my car.

[Mike]

That was my question.

[Ben]

Dude. I feel like it's not gonna be that easy. If I remember correctly, every time I'd look at Ken, he'd have his laptop typing. He's got literally a short novel. Ken, what are you doing emailing these idiots over at Forge?

[Ken]

Trying to get my.

[Ben]

That thing. Lemon out? They're trying to say it's not, but. And like, I remember it was quite a process. He was doing a lot of emailing and a lot of. A lot of words on the page that tough.

[Mike]

If I can get the job done and just emails Ryan, I'll do it for you.

[Ryan]

Like you'd be a great assistant for how much you love emailing.

[Mike]

I would be. I would be a fantastic.

[Ryan]

You're spawned three years late but you'd get get to them eventually.

[Ken]

Mike starts up like an email marketing company but instead of having like a mass email it's all personalized. Like you type each you how many.

[Mike]

People you got on Your email list?

[Ryan]

30.

[Mike]

But I'm capped out.

[Ken]

Well good. I want to let's wrap this thing up. Go watch Cletus turn left. Hopefully win the Daytona 500 or whatever he's racing right now.

[Mike]

A little bit of stuff works later.

[Ben]

Hit the gym.

[Ryan]

There we go. Dude, we got a D. Mel keep having fun bag stay in the gym.

[Ben]

As Gavin three wheeler Gavin says good stuff.

[Ryan]

All right boys.

[Mike]

See ya.

[Ryan]
